Quick notes on uRequire
Raw
gistfile1.md

The issues I had with uRequire:

  • line-endings issues (on my Mac)

     → npm install -g urequire
 …
 → urequire UMD lib -o dist
 env: node\r: No such file or directory

    I resolved it with dos2unix:

     → dos2unix /path/to/npm/lib/node_modules/urequire/build/code/uRequireCmd.js 
 dos2unix: converting file /path/to/npm/lib/node_modules/urequire/build/code/uRequireCmd.js to Unix format ...
 
 → urequire UMD lib -o dist

  • require behavior is inconsistent with NodeJS (e.g the fix from your gist). While require('foo') might be preferable to require('foo.js'), both work in NodeJS

  • Would like to be able to pass a file, not ony a directory (e.g urequire UMD index.js -o dist vs urequire UMD lib -o dist). In NodeJS, it's very common to have an index.js file which does the work required to create the module (even if that's just module.exports = require('./lib'))
