Parallel in node: Can I know, in node.js, if my script is being run directly or being loaded by another script?
I am looking for a way to tell if a deno script is being run direcly or if it's being imported by another module. Is this possible in deno? If so how?
You have to use import.meta.main to know if a script is the entry point or not.
main.js
import child from './child.js';
console.log('Main', import.meta.main);
child.js
export default 'foo';
console.log('child', import.meta.main);
Now when you execute:
deno run main.js
You'll get:
child: false
Main: true
