Get the path of the parent module

Node.js exposes module.parent, but it only gives you the first cached parent, which is not necessarily the actual parent.

Install

1npm install parent-module

Usage

1// bar.js
2import parentModule from 'parent-module';
3
4export default function bar() {
5	console.log(parentModule());
6	//=> '/Users/sindresorhus/dev/unicorn/foo.js'
7};

1// foo.js
2import bar from './bar.js';
3
4bar();

API

By default, it will return the path of the immediate parent.

filePath

Type: string
Default: __filename

2import {readPackageUpSync} from 'read-pkg-up';
3import parentModule from 'parent-module';
4
5console.log(readPackageUpSync({cwd: path.dirname(parentModule())}).pkg);
