Basic Node module

Just experimenting with ECMAScript 2018 async/await class-based Node.js module.

Installation

$ bash <(curl -sL https://git.io/fhH5H)

Usage

After Installation, you can run this code like so:

$ npm i
$ node test.js
before
Hello world!
after

Feel free to wipe everything in index.js and start fresh … I just wanted an example to work with for when I start new modules.

Notes

I wanted to have the option of passing params via require AND method invocation:

const bnm = require('./index')({
  // Options can be passed here:
  red: 'black',
  green: 'purple',
});

// ...

let result = await bnm({
  orange: 'blue',
}).run();

Alternatively:

const bnm = require('./index')({
  // Options can be passed here:
  red: 'black',
  green: 'purple',
})();

// ...

let result = await bnm.run();

This was just an experiment, and I am guessing there may be a better way. Like I said before, this code is experimental.
