Node Module Resolver #

Asynchronous implementation of the node require.resolve()
algorithm
except you can pass in the file to compute paths relatively to along with your
own require.paths without updating the global copy (which doesn't even work in
node >=0.5).

methods #

var resolve = require('node-module-resolver');

resolve.async(pkg, opts, callback) ##

Asynchronously search for the package/filename string pkg
according to the require.resolve()
algorithm
for X=pkg and Y=opts.basedir. Callback is fired with the located module or
without arguments if nothing is found.

$3

```javascript
{
paths : [],
basedir : __dirname,
extensions : [ '.js' ],
readFileSync : fs.readFileSync,
isFile : function (file) {
return path.existSync(file) && fs.statSync(file).isFile()
}
}
``

Optionally you can specify a opts.packageFilter function to map the contents
of JSON.parse()'d package.json files.

If nothing is found, all of the directories in opts.paths` are searched.

resolve.isCore(pkg) ##

Return whether a package is in core.

To the Node team for documenting what their mad-cap system is, and James Halliday
for the synchronous implementation Node-Module-Resolver is forked from.
