# parent-module [](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/parent-module) > Get the path of the parent module Node.js exposes `module.parent`, but it only gives you the first cached parent, which is not necessarily the actual parent. ## Install ``` $ npm install parent-module ``` ## Usage ```js // bar.js const parentModule = require('parent-module'); module.exports = () => { console.log(parentModule()); //=> '/Users/sindresorhus/dev/unicorn/foo.js' }; ``` ```js // foo.js const bar = require('./bar'); bar(); ``` ## API ### parentModule([filepath]) By default, it will return the path of the immediate parent. #### filepath Type: `string`<br> Default: [`__filename`](https://nodejs.org/api/globals.html#globals_filename) Filepath of the module of which to get the parent path. Useful if you want it to work [multiple module levels down](https://github.com/sindresorhus/parent-module/tree/master/fixtures/filepath). ## Tip Combine it with [`read-pkg-up`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/read-pkg-up) to read the package.json of the parent module. ```js const path = require('path'); const readPkgUp = require('read-pkg-up'); const parentModule = require('parent-module'); console.log(readPkgUp.sync({cwd: path.dirname(parentModule())}).pkg); //=> {name: 'chalk', version: '1.0.0', …} ``` ## License MIT © [Sindre Sorhus](https://sindresorhus.com)
