Version Details and Security Vulnerabilities

The replace-require-self npm package, version 1.0.0, offers a straightforward solution to a common JavaScript module pattern: replacing require($THIS_PACKAGE) with require('./'). This simplifies internal module references, particularly useful during development or refactoring. The core functionality centers around a transformation that rewrites require statements. It find instances where the package name is used in a require() statement and replaces it with a relative path require('./') to the current module. This is achieved through the dependency on the stream-replace package, version ^1.0.0, which likely powers the find-and-replace functionality within the code stream.

Published in August 2015 under the MIT license, ensuring permissive usage and modification, version 1.0.0 provides a focused approach to resolving require paths. The author, Kyle E. Mitchell, provides both an email and website for contact. Developers seeking to streamline their module import statements and improve code readability may find this tool beneficial. Its simplicity and focused purpose makes it easy to integrate into existing workflows, especially when managing internal dependencies within a package. Developers can access the code and contribute through the linked GitHub repository. The package is conveniently distributed as a tarball via the npm registry. Since there's no information about previous version of the package, this version provides a baseline understanding of the package's purpose and capabilities.
