CallerModule

Provides information about the caller of a method and its module

This module provides the ability to determine what module performed the most recent function call. It additionally provides information about the module such as:

• Its name
• Its root-path
• The path to the file that performed the function call
• The CallSite-object of the function call (More about the CallSite class...)

Installation

You can install this package using npm:

npm install --save @manuth/caller-module

Usage

TypeScript-example:

import { GetCallerModule } from "@manuth/caller-module";

console.log(GetCallerModule().name); // Logs the name of your module. 

const { GetCallerModule } = require("@manuth/caller-module");
console.log(GetCallerModule().name);

function test1()
{

}

function test2()

    last();
}

function last()
{
    console.log(GetCallerModule().name); // Your module's name.
    console.log(GetCallerModule().callSite.getFunctionName()); // last
    console.log(GetCallerModule(2).callSite.getFunctionName()); // test2
    console.log(GetCallerModule(last).callSite.getFunctionName()); // test2
    console.log(GetCallerModule(last, 2).callSite.getFunctionName()); // test1
