# Optional Require
NodeJS Require that let you handle module not found error without try/catch. Allows you to gracefully require a module only if it exists and contains no error.
# Usage
```js
const optionalRequire = require("optional-require")(require);
const foo = optionalRequire("foo") || {};
const bar = optionalRequire("bar", true); // true enables console.log a message when not found
const xyz = optionalRequire("xyz", "test"); // "test" enables console.log a message with "test" added.
const fbPath = optionalRequire.resolve("foo", "foo doesn't exist");
const rel = optionalRequire("../foo/bar"); // relative module path works
```
# Install
```bash
$ npm i optional-require --save
```
# API
#### [optionalRequire(require)](#optionalrequirerequire)
The single function this module exports. Call it with `require` to get a custom function for you to do optional require from your file's require context. See [Usage](#usage) above.
#### [customOptionalRequire(path, \[message|options\])](#customoptionalrequirepath-messageoptions)
The function [optionalRequire](#optionalrequirerequire) returns for you to do optional require from your file's require context.
##### Params
- `path` - name/path to the module your want to optionally require
- `message` - optional flag/message to enable `console.log` a message when module is not found
- `options` - an optional object with the following fields
- `message` - see above
- `fail` - callback for when an error that's _not_ `MODULE_NOT_FOUND` for `path` occurred
- `notFound` - callback for when `path` was not found
- The value from this is returned
- `default` - default value to returned when not found - not allowed with `notFound` together
##### Returns
- module required or one of the following if not found
- `undefined` or
- return value from `options.notFound` if it's specified
- `options.default` if it's specified
##### Throws
- rethrows any error that's not `MODULE_NOT_FOUND` for the module `path`
#### [customOptionalRequire.resolve(path, \[message\])](#customoptionalrequireresolvepath-message)
Same as [customOptionalRequire](#customoptionalrequirepath-messageoptions) but acts like `require.resolve`
#### [optionalRequire.log(message, path)](#optionalrequirelogmessage-path)
The function that will be called to log the message when optional module is not found. You can override this with your own function.
#### [optionalRequire.try(require, path, \[message|options\])](#optionalrequiretryrequire-path-messageoptions)
Same as [customOptionalRequire](#customoptionalrequirepath-messageoptions) but you have to pass in `require` from your file's context.
#### [optionalRequire.resolve(require, path, \[message|options\])](#optionalrequireresolverequire-path-messageoptions)
Same as [customOptionalRequire.resolve](#customoptionalrequirepath-messageoptions) but you have to pass in `require` from your file's context.
