Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

Possible solutions

Grunt and Cordova 3

The advantages of using Grunt with Cordova:

It simplifies working with the cordova cli.
It provides a mechanism to copy platform customization to the platforms directory without having to commit the generated plugins and platforms directories to version control.
It provides a way to watch resources and automatically run cordova commands.

Add this in your ini file:

[alembic:exclude]
tables = spatial_ref_sys

In env.py:

    import re

	upstream myapp {
	server 127.0.0.1:8081;
	}

	limit_req_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=login:10m rate=1r/s;

	server {
	listen 443 ssl spdy;
	server_name _;

	def copy_row(model, row, ignored_columns=[]):
	copy = model()

	for col in row.__table__.columns:
	if col.name not in ignored_columns:
	try:
	copy.__setattr__(col.name, getattr(row, col.name))
	except Exception as e:
	print e
	continue

	function merge() {
	var i, json,
	jsons = [];
	for ( i = 0; i < arguments.length; i++ ) {
	json = JSON.stringify( arguments[ i ] ).replace( /^{/, "" ).replace( /}$/, "" );
	if ( json ) {
	jsons.push( json );
	}
	}
	return JSON.parse( "{" + jsons.join( "," ) + "}" );

	#!/bin/sh
	# Print four lines showing blocks of colors: 0-7 \| 0-7bold \| 8-15 \| 8-15bold
	perl -CADS -lwe '
	my $block = shift \|\| (chr(0x2588) x 3);
	for (["", 0], ["1;", 0], ["", 8], ["1;", 8]) {
	my ($bold, $offset) = @$_;
	my @range = map $offset + $_, 0..7;
	printf "%s %-6s ", $bold ? "bold" : "norm", "$range[0]-$range[-1]";
	print map("\e[${bold}38;5;${_}m$block", @range), "\e[0m"
	}
