get-package-type

Determine the package.json#type
which applies to a
location.
Usage
const getPackageType = require('get-package-type');
async () => {
(console.log(await getPackageType('file.js'));
console.log(getPackageType.sync('file.js'));
; })()
This function does not validate the value found in
package.json#type
. Any truthy value found will be returned.
Non-truthy values will be reported as commonjs
.
The argument must be a filename.
// This never looks at `dir1/`, first attempts to load `./package.json`.
const type1 = await getPackageType('dir1/');
// This attempts to load `dir1/package.json`.
const type2 = await getPackageType('dir1/index.cjs');
The extension of the filename does not effect the result. The primary
use case for this module is to determine if myapp.config.js
should be loaded with require
or import
.
