Last release: 1/28/2019

require-main-filename is a small Node.js shim that provides an alternative to require.main.filename(), intended to work in more execution environments where the original can fail. It is useful for reliably identifying an application entry point, which can then be combined with modules like pkg-conf to load top-level configuration.
