Better local require() paths for Node.js

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

Simple slugify function for PHP. Creates a slug for the passed string, taking into account international characters as well.
<?php
function slugify($string, $replace = array(), $delimiter = '-') {
// https://github.com/phalcon/incubator/blob/master/Library/Phalcon/Utils/Slug.php
if (!extension_loaded('iconv')) {
throw new Exception('iconv module not loaded');
}
// Save the old locale and set the new locale to UTF-8
$oldLocale = setlocale(LC_ALL, '0');
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'en_US.UTF-8');
$clean = iconv('UTF-8', 'ASCII//TRANSLIT', $string);
