# core-commonjs · [![npm version][npm badge]][npm URL]
**core-commonjs** adds support for [`require`](https://nodejs.org/api/modules.html#requireid), [`__dirname`](https://nodejs.org/api/modules.html#__dirname) and [`__filename`](https://nodejs.org/api/modules.html#__filename) to ES modules in Node.js.
## Installation
Install with [npm](https://docs.npmjs.com/about-npm):
```shell
npm i core-commonjs
```
## Usage
Import once at the entry point of your application/running unit:
```js
// main.js
import 'core-commonjs';
import './app.js';
```
Use in all ES modules later on:
```js
// app.js
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
app.get('/', (req, res) => res.send('Hello World from ' + __dirname));
app.listen(80);
export default app;
```
Alternatively, launch with `node -r core-commonjs ./app.js` to have core-commonjs preloaded by Node.js.
## Compatibility
core-commonjs works in Node.js 14 or later. Browsers and transpilers are not supported.
