pkgsolver - Smarter Resolver for your NodeJS project !

Description

Default Node only load modules from node_modules folder. This plugin can autoload all package.json files recursively, so you can named your library to require/import every where from your workspace. For example, instead of using complex relative paths like ../../../../shared/utils you can place use @shared/utils. It will allow you to work faster since you won't need to calculate how many levels of directory you have to go up before accessing the file.

{
    "name": "@shared",
    "main": "./"
}

// Use this:
import MyUtilFn from '@shared/utils';
// Instead of that:
import MyUtilFn from '../../../../shared/utils';

// And it also work with require calls
// Use this:
const MyUtilFn = require('@shared/utils');
// Instead of that:
const MyUtilFn = require('../../../../shared/utils');
