how to go-to-definition on require statement in vscode

Is go to definition enabled on require statements in VSCode?

(1) var a = require('a');
(2) var b = a;

If I do go to definition (f12) on line 2 on (a) it goes to line 1 as expected. When trying go to definition on the require line (line 1) it does nothing.

Is go to definition supported on require statements in vscode?

Solution

  • I use Node modules resolve plugin for VSCode. It provides definitions for commonjs requires in your code for quick navigation. Works with commonjs modules and import module system.
