dependency-tree
Returns an unordered array of local paths to dependencies of a node JavaScript file (everything it or any of its dependencies requires).
Reduced feature (faster) alternative to the dependency-tree package that only works with stock node JS. This is used by Eleventy to find dependencies of a JavaScript file to watch for changes to re-run Eleventy’s build.
Installation
npm install --save-dev @11ty/dependency-tree
Features
- Ignores node_modules
- Ignores Node’s built-ins (e.g. path)
- Handles circular dependencies (Node does this too)
Usage
// my-file.js
// if my-local-dependency.js has dependencies, it will include those too
const test = require("./my-local-dependency.js");
// ignored, is a built-in
const path = require("path");
const DependencyTree = require("@11ty/dependency-tree");
DependencyTree("./my-file.js");
// returns ["./my-local-dependency.js"]
allowNotFound
const DependencyTree = require("@11ty/dependency-tree");
DependencyTree("./this-does-not-exist.js"); // throws an error
DependencyTree("./this-does-not-exist.js", { allowNotFound: true });
// returns []
