Given a directory structure like so:\n\n* app.js\n* routes/\n  * index.js\n  * home.js\n  * auth/\n    * login.js\n    * logout.js\n    * register.js\n\n`routes/index.js` uses `require-directory` to build the hash (rather than doing so manually) like so:\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory');\nmodule.exports = requireDirectory(module);\n```\n\n`app.js` references `routes/index.js` like any other module, but it now has a hash/tree of the exports from the `./routes/` directory:\n\n```javascript\nvar routes = require('./routes');\n\n// snip\n\napp.get('/', routes.home);\napp.get('/register', routes.auth.register);\napp.get('/login', routes.auth.login);\napp.get('/logout', routes.auth.logout);\n```\n\nThe `routes` variable above is the equivalent of this:\n\n```javascript\nvar routes = {\n  home: require('routes/home.js'),\n  auth: {\n    login: require('routes/auth/login.js'),\n    logout: require('routes/auth/logout.js'),\n    register: require('routes/auth/register.js')\n  }\n};\n```\n\n*Note that `routes.index` will be `undefined` as you would hope.*\n\n### Specifying Another Directory\n\nYou can specify which directory you want to build a tree of (if it isn't the current directory for whatever reason) by passing it as the second parameter. Not specifying the path (`requireDirectory(module)`) is the equivelant of `requireDirectory(module, __dirname)`:\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory');\nmodule.exports = requireDirectory(module, './some/subdirectory');\n```\n\nFor example, in the [example in the Usage section](#usage) we could have avoided creating `routes/index.js` and instead changed the first lines of `app.js` to:\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory');\nvar routes = requireDirectory(module, './routes');\n```\n\n## Options\n\nYou can pass an options hash to `require-directory` as the 2nd parameter (or 3rd if you're passing the path to another directory as the 2nd parameter already). Here are the available options:\n\n### Whitelisting\n\nWhitelisting (either via RegExp or function) allows you to specify that only certain files be loaded.\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory'),\n  whitelist = /onlyinclude.js$/,\n  hash = requireDirectory(module, {include: whitelist});\n```\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory'),\n  check = function(path){\n    if(/onlyinclude.js$/.test(path)){\n      return true; // don't include\n    }else{\n      return false; // go ahead and include\n    }\n  },\n  hash = requireDirectory(module, {include: check});\n```\n\n### Blacklisting\n\nBlacklisting (either via RegExp or function) allows you to specify that all but certain files should be loaded.\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory'),\n  blacklist = /dontinclude\\.js$/,\n  hash = requireDirectory(module, {exclude: blacklist});\n```\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory'),\n  check = function(path){\n    if(/dontinclude\\.js$/.test(path)){\n      return false; // don't include\n    }else{\n      return true; // go ahead and include\n    }\n  },\n  hash = requireDirectory(module, {exclude: check});\n```\n\n### Visiting Objects As They're Loaded\n\n`require-directory` takes a function as the `visit` option that will be called for each module that is added to module.exports.\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory'),\n  visitor = function(obj) {\n    console.log(obj); // will be called for every module that is loaded\n  },\n  hash = requireDirectory(module, {visit: visitor});\n```\n\nThe visitor can also transform the objects by returning a value:\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory'),\n  visitor = function(obj) {\n    return obj(new Date());\n  },\n  hash = requireDirectory(module, {visit: visitor});\n```\n\n### Renaming Keys\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory'),\n  renamer = function(name) {\n    return name.toUpperCase();\n  },\n  hash = requireDirectory(module, {rename: renamer});\n```\n\n### No Recursion\n\n```javascript\nvar requireDirectory = require('require-directory'),\n  hash = requireDirectory(module, {recurse: false});\n```\n\n## Run Unit Tests\n\n```bash\n$ npm run lint\n$ npm test\n```\n\n## License\n\n[MIT License](http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php)\n\n## Author\n\n[Troy Goode](https://github.com/TroyGoode) ([troygoode@gmail.com](mailto:troygoode@gmail.com))\n\n",
