parse-require

##Installation

With parse-module

npm install -g parse-module // optional if you alread have it
parse-module install flovilmart/parse-require require

From parse-cli

install parse-cli

npm install -g parse-cli

from your parse directory's root folder

parse-cli install flovilmart/parse-require require

That will install require in ./cloud/parse_modules/require

Other method

Get the index.js file and put it anywhere in your cloud folder (rename it require.js for the sake of understanding)

##How to use

in main.js :

var require2 = require("cloud/parse_modules/require/index");
require2("cloud/app");
// same as
require2("./app");

/*
    Modules support
    cloud/mymodule/index.js
*/

require2("mymodule");

/*
    Load cloud/parse_modules/mymodule
*/

require2("mymodule");

in cloud/mymodule/index.js

/*
    Load files in the module
    resolve the current path
    injects require2 as require
    original require is available as _require
*/
require("./lib/mymodule.js") 

// Notice require is injected as require2 if the parent module was loaded with require2

Load json files:

require("./hello.json")

You can still use the original require with

_require("cloud/lib/mymodule/hello/world.js")

• Loads index.js in folders by default
