Find all `require`s or `import`s of a Node.js module in VSCode?

I have a Node.JS project in VSCode 1.29.1. I'd like to see all places where a module is required or imported. Is there a good way to do this, or an extension? When I click "find all references" on the symbol that's module.exported, it only lists references in that file.



As a workaround, I've been doing "find in project" with the regex search require(.*moduleName.*).

  • how about doing cmd + shift + f and then typing and searching it the line const whatever ? Although I know this approach have many drawbacks but maybe a work around? Ps: I am also following this post.

  • Yep, that's another thing I try! But sometimes this codebase names imports inconsistently. :)
