Hello there, I'm going through the learnyounode workshop, currently on the
Make It Modular section. I'm not getting a clear picture of how modules
work.
Suppose I want to create a new module named "mod1":
-
I would have to create a subfolder named "mod1" with files *index.js*
and *package.json*. Does *index.js* contains the actual code, and
*package.json* is simply descriptive?
-
The workshop doesn't seem to use said structure but instead simple uses
a separate file for the *exported function* code. I think it has to do
with using a *single function export*, rather that a full module that
would contain any amount of function (I guess).
-
Even though I've created the subfolder with both files, when i ran the
following from cli:
node -pe "require('mod1')"
I get
Error: Cannot find module 'mod1' error.
Any clarification to these is greatly appreciated, cheers!
