Get the path of the caller module
You can't use module.parent
as modules are cached and it will return the first caller module, not necessarily the current one.
$ npm install --save caller-path
// foo.js
var callerPath = require('caller-path');
module.exports = function () {
console.log(callerPath());
//=> /Users/sindresorhus/dev/unicorn/bar.js
}
// bar.js
var foo = require('./foo');
foo();
