# lazy-cache [](https://www.npmjs.com/package/lazy-cache) [](https://npmjs.org/package/lazy-cache) [](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/lazy-cache)
|
|
|
|
> Cache requires to be lazy-loaded when needed.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ npm install lazy-cache --save
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you use webpack and are experiencing issues, try using [unlazy-loader](https://github.com/doowb/unlazy-loader), a webpack loader that fixes the bug that prevents webpack from working with native javascript getters.
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Use as a property on `lazy`**
|
|
|
|
The module is also added as a property to the `lazy` function
|
|
so it can be called without having to call a function first.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
|
|
|
|
// `npm install glob`
|
|
utils('glob');
|
|
|
|
// glob sync
|
|
console.log(utils.glob.sync('*.js'));
|
|
|
|
// glob async
|
|
utils.glob('*.js', function (err, files) {
|
|
console.log(files);
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Use as a function**
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
|
|
var glob = utils('glob');
|
|
|
|
// `glob` is a now a function that may be called when needed
|
|
glob().sync('foo/*.js');
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Aliases
|
|
|
|
An alias may be passed as the second argument if you don't want to use the automatically camel-cased variable name.
|
|
|
|
**Example**
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
|
|
|
|
// alias `ansi-yellow` as `yellow`
|
|
utils('ansi-yellow', 'yellow');
|
|
console.log(utils.yellow('foo'));
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Browserify usage
|
|
|
|
**Example**
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
|
|
// temporarily re-assign `require` to trick browserify
|
|
var fn = require;
|
|
require = utils;
|
|
// list module dependencies (here, `require` is actually `lazy-cache`)
|
|
require('glob');
|
|
require = fn; // restore the native `require` function
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* Now you can use glob with the `utils.glob` variable
|
|
*/
|
|
|
|
// sync
|
|
console.log(utils.glob.sync('*.js'));
|
|
|
|
// async
|
|
utils.glob('*.js', function (err, files) {
|
|
console.log(files.join('\n'));
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Kill switch
|
|
|
|
In certain rare edge cases it may be necessary to unlazy all lazy-cached dependencies (5 reported cases after ~30 million downloads).
|
|
|
|
To force lazy-cache to immediately invoke all dependencies, do:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
process.env.UNLAZY = true;
|
|
```
|
|
|
