httprequire is a module that allows you to require other node.js modules that are accessible through http/https.

npm install httprequire --save

Just write this line on the top of your code:

var httprequire = require('httprequire');

After that you can require remote modules using httprequire():

var
    async = httprequire('http://pz.org.pt/~david/projects/node/tmp/async.js');

If you prefer an asyncronous way of requiring a module:

httprequire('http://pz.org.pt/~david/projects/node/tmp/async.js',function(async){
	// do something here
});

By default httprequire() will cache the results of http.get() and will use them if the same URL is required on the future. To bypass the cache, pass a true after the URL.

Example:

async = httprequire('http://pz.org.pt/~david/projects/node/tmp/async.js',true);
