This module provides a way to synchronously load multiple Node.js modules using glob pattern matching.

Example

Require all sibling modules (relative to this module):

var results = grequire(module, "./*.js")

console.log(results)

Output:

[{
  filename: './sibling-1.js',
  exports: { /* exports of sibling-1 */ }
}, {
  filename: './sibling-2.js',
  exports: { /* exports of sibling-2 */ }
}]

Also see the spec, it shows many different combinations of parameters, with comments.

API

grequire([module, ] pattern [, globOpts])

• module The module object that requires should be performed on behalf of. Usually this should be the free module variable, like in the example above.

• pattern, globOpts The glob pattern and options to use when matching files. See the node-glob documentation.

Returns an array of items, where each item corresponds to one required module, and has the following contents:

{
  /**
   * The filename of the loaded module. It may be absolute or relative,
   * depending on the pattern. See test/index.js for examples.
   */
  filename: String,
  /**
   * The loaded module's exports.
   */
  exports: AnyObject
}

ES6

This module is written in ES6, and ES5 code is generated using Babel.

If you live in the future or use Babel (or some other transpiler), you may want to load the non-transpiled ES6 code:

import grequire from 'grequire/es6'
