I have a module.js that must be loaded; In order to work needs objectX;
How do I pass the objectX to the module.js in the require method provided by node.js?
thanks
// my module.js objectX.add('abc'); // error: objectX is undefined I would like a way to do it, without having to change all my classes because would take a lot of time... and they way it is has good performance for the client side. (I mix clientfiles with serverfiles***)

You can think of the require module as the command and the module module as the organizer of all required modules. Requiring a module in Node isn't that complicated of a concept. const config = require('/path/to/file'); The main object exported by the require module is a function (as used in the above example).
In Node. js, as in C and many related environments, all command-line arguments received by the shell are given to the process in an array called argv (short for 'argument values'). There you have it - an array containing any arguments you passed in.
The exports keyword is used to make properties and methods available outside the module file.
The module that you write can export a single function. When you require the module, call the function with your initialization argument. That function can return an Object (hash) which you place into your variable in the require-ing module. In other words:
main.js
var initValue = 0; var a = require('./arithmetic')(initValue); // It has functions console.log(a); // Call them console.log(a.addOne()); console.log(a.subtractOne()); arithmetic.js:
module.exports = function(initValue) { return { addOne: function() { return initValue + 1; }, subtractOne: function() { return initValue - 1; }, } } If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
