# import-from [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/import-from.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/sindresorhus/import-from)
> Import a module like with [`require()`](https://nodejs.org/api/globals.html#globals_require) but from a given path
## Install
```
$ npm install --save import-from
```
## Usage
```js
const importFrom = require('import-from');
// There is a file at `./foo/bar.js`
importFrom('foo', './bar');
```
## API
### importFrom(fromDir, moduleId)
Like `require()`, throws when the module can't be found.
### importFrom.silent(fromDir, moduleId)
Returns `null` instead of throwing when the module can't be found.
#### fromDir
Type: `string`
Directory to import from.
#### moduleId
Type: `string`
What you would use in `require()`.
## Tip
Create a partial using a bound function if you want to import from the same `fromDir` multiple times:
```js
const importFromFoo = importFrom.bind(null, 'foo');
importFromFoo('./bar');
importFromFoo('./baz');
```
