# bundle-require
[![npm version](https://badgen.net/npm/v/bundle-require)](https://npm.im/bundle-require) [![npm downloads](https://badgen.net/npm/dm/bundle-require)](https://npm.im/bundle-require) [![jsDocs.io](https://img.shields.io/badge/jsDocs.io-reference-blue)](https://www.jsdocs.io/package/bundle-require)
## Use Case
Projects like [Vite](https://vitejs.dev) 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.
## How it works
- Bundle your file with esbuild, `node_modules` are excluded because it's problematic to try to bundle it
- `__filename`, `__dirname` and `import.meta.url` are replaced with source file's value instead of the one from the temporary output file
- Output file in `esm` format if possible (for `.ts`, `.js` input files)
- Load output file with `import()` if possible
- Return the loaded module and its dependencies (imported files)
## Install
```bash
npm i bundle-require esbuild
```
`esbuild` is a peer dependency.
## Usage
```ts
import { bundleRequire } from 'bundle-require'
const { mod } = await bundleRequire({
filepath: './project/vite.config.ts',
})
```
