If you use webpack and are experiencing issues, try using unlazy-loader, a webpack loader that fixes the bug that prevents webpack from working with native javascript getters.
Usage
var utils =require('lazy-cache')(require);
Use as a property on lazy
The module is also added as a property to the lazy function so it can be called without having to call a function first.
var utils =require('lazy-cache')(require);// `npm install glob`utils('glob');// glob syncconsole.log(utils.glob.sync('*.js'));// glob asyncutils.glob('*.js',function(err,files){console.log(files);});
Use as a function
Aliases
An alias may be passed as the second argument if you don't want to use the automatically camel-cased variable name.
Example
Browserify usage
Example
Kill switch
In certain rare edge cases it may be necessary to unlazy all lazy-cached dependencies (5 reported cases after ~30 million downloads).
To force lazy-cache to immediately invoke all dependencies, do:

var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
var glob = utils('glob');
// `glob` is a now a function that may be called when needed
glob().sync('foo/*.js');
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
// alias `ansi-yellow` as `yellow`
utils('ansi-yellow', 'yellow');
console.log(utils.yellow('foo'));
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
// temporarily re-assign `require` to trick browserify
var fn = require;
require = utils;
// list module dependencies (here, `require` is actually `lazy-cache`)
require('glob');
require = fn; // restore the native `require` function
/**
* Now you can use glob with the `utils.glob` variable
*/
// sync
console.log(utils.glob.sync('*.js'));
// async
utils.glob('*.js', function (err, files) {
console.log(files.join('\n'));
});
