require-path-relative

Like path.relative(from, to), but normalizes it to look good in a Node require() statement. Also allows for an optional file entry-point.

For example:

var relative = require('require-path-relative')
 
relative('/modules/utils', '/modules')
=> '../'
 
relative('/modules/utils', '/modules', './index.js')
=> '../test.js'
 
relative('/modules', '/modules/utils', 'test.js')
=> './utils/test.js'
 
relative('/modules', '/modules')
=> './'

Usage

filepath = relative(from, to, [entry])

Resolves the from and to directories, and optionally appends the entry file to the end of the path.

This is handy for generating pretty-looking Node source.
