// module.mjs
// In an ECMAScript module
import { builtinModules as builtin } from 'node:module';// module.cjs
// In a CommonJS module
const builtin = require('node:module').builtinModules;copy

module.createRequire(filename)#

• filename <string> | <URL> Filename to be used to construct the require function. Must be a file URL object, file URL string, or absolute path string.
• Returns: <require> Require function

import { createRequire } from 'node:module';
const require = createRequire(import.meta.url);

// sibling-module.js is a CommonJS module.
const siblingModule = require('./sibling-module'); copy
