## API
|
|
26
|
|
|
27
|
### resolveFrom(fromDir, moduleId)
|
|
28
|
|
|
29
|
Like `require()`, throws when the module can't be found.
|
|
30
|
|
|
31
|
### resolveFrom.silent(fromDir, moduleId)
|
|
32
|
|
|
33
|
Returns `null` instead of throwing when the module can't be found.
|
|
34
|
|
|
35
|
#### fromDir
|
|
36
|
|
|
37
|
Type: `string`
|
|
38
|
|
|
39
|
Directory to resolve from.
|
|
40
|
|
|
41
|
#### moduleId
|
|
42
|
|
|
43
|
Type: `string`
|
|
44
|
|
|
45
|
What you would use in `require()`.
|
|

|
## Tip
|
|
49
|
|
|
50
|
Create a partial using a bound function if you want to resolve from the same `fromDir` multiple times:
|
|
51
|
|
|
52
|
```js
|
|
53
|
const resolveFromFoo = resolveFrom.bind(null, 'foo');
|
|
54
|
|
|
55
|
resolveFromFoo('./bar');
|
|
56
|
resolveFromFoo('./baz');
|
|
57
|
```
|
|
