dependency-check

checks which modules you have used in your code and then makes sure they are listed as dependencies in your package.json, or vice-versa

requirements for maintained majors

If used on an older Node.js version dependency-check will fail silently rather than crashing your tests.

5.x supports Node.js 14 and later
4.x supports Node.js 10 and later
3.x supports Node.js 6 and later
2.x supports Node.js 0.10 and later (Dev note: published using the legacy tag)

For more info on maintenance status, see SECURITY.md.

how it works

dependency-check parses your module code starting from the default entry files (e.g. index.js or main and any bin commands defined in package.json or if specific files has been defined, then those) and traverses through all relatively required JS files, ultimately producing a list of non-relative modules

relative - e.g. require('./a-relative-file.js'), if one of these are encountered the required file will be recursively parsed by the dependency-check algorithm
non-relative - e.g. require('a-module'), if one of these are encountered it will get added to the list of dependencies, but sub-dependencies of the module will not get recursively parsed

the goal of this module is to simply check that all non-relative modules that get require()'d are in package.json, which prevents people from getting 'module not found' errors when they install your module that has missing deps which was accidentally published to NPM (happened to me all the time, hence the impetus to write this module).
