# lazy-cache [![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/lazy-cache.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/js/lazy-cache)
> Cache requires to be lazy-loaded when needed.
## Install
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)
```sh
$ npm i lazy-cache --save
```
## Usage
```js
var lazy = 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.
```js
var lazy = require('lazy-cache')(require);
// `npm install glob`
lazy('glob');
// glob sync
console.log(lazy.glob.sync('*.js'));
// glob async
lazy.glob('*.js', function (err, files) {
console.log(files);
});
```
**Use as a function**
```js
var lazy = require('lazy-cache')(require);
var glob = lazy('glob');
// `glob` is a now a function that may be called when needed
glob().sync('foo/*.js');
```
## Aliases
An alias may be passed as the second argument if you don't want to use the automatically camel-cased variable name.
**Example**
```js
var utils = require('lazy-cache')(require);
utils('ansi-yellow', 'yellow');
console.log(utils.yellow('foo'));
```
## Browserify usage
**Example**
```js
var lazy = require('lazy-cache')(require);
// temporarily re-assign `require` to trick browserify
var fn = require;
require = lazy;
// list module dependencies here (`require` is actually `lazy`)
require('glob');
require = fn; // restore the native `require` function
/**
* Now you can use glob with the `lazy.glob` variable
*/
// sync
console.log(lazy.glob.sync('*.js'));
// async
lazy.glob('*.js', function (err, files) {
console.log(files.join('\n'));
});
```
