bundle-require

Use Case

Projects like Vite need to load config files provided by the user, but you can't do it with just require() because it's not necessarily a CommonJS module, it could also be a .mjs or even be written in TypeScript, and that's where the bundle-require package comes in, it loads the config file regardless what module format it is.

This is implemented by pre-bundling the file with esbuild and then loading it with require().

Install

npm i bundle-require esbuild

esbuild is a peer dependency.

Usage

import { bundleRequire } from 'bundle-require'

const mod = await bundleRequire({
  filepath: './project/vite.config.ts',
})
