the node path trick

• Let say you have a file structure like this one:

index.ts
libs/
    services/
        superService.ts
    utils/
        parser.ts

• you go NODE_PATH=libs ts-node index (not a ts thing but we both use ts)

All import are now relative to the path specified in the NODE_PATH variable.

and then instead of importing like this:

import phone from "../utils/parser";

// more code

• yu can import like that:

import phone from "utils/parser";

//more code

import doStuff from "services/superService";
import phone from "utils/parser";

// more code
