Rechoir is a node module that simplifies the process of requiring files with different extensions, such as .json, .yaml, .toml, and others, without needing explicit require() statements for each file type. It automatically detects the appropriate module to use for parsing based on the file extension, allowing you to easily load configuration files or data regardless of their format, streamlining your project setup and reducing boilerplate code. It supports multiple configuration file formats ensuring versatility.
Rechoir's npm downloads show a general upward trend from March 2024 to July 2025, peaking near 98 million. A slight dip occurred in August 2025, followed by a significant drop in September 2025, likely due to incomplete data for the current month.
Rechoir's release frequency is sporadic. Initial development from March 2014 to February 2015 saw frequent releases. Another burst occurred in May and July 2015, and January 2019. The latest releases were in July 2021. There have been no releases since, indicating a period of inactivity as of September 9, 2025.
