   OK, this was super-easy and very meta!

   As an experiment, I wanted to update Alias HQ to use aliases itself:

   • I wrote an Alias HQ Node plugin to remap the Alias HQ Webpack plugin.
   • I then used the Alias HQ CLI to convert all relative paths of Alias HQ itself.
   • Finally:
     • I called the plugin
     • which calls your API
     • which allows Alias HQ to load itself... using aliases!

   

   The plugin is this:

   const moduleAlias = require('module-alias')
   const webpack = require('../webpack')
   
   module.exports = function (config, options) {
     const paths = webpack(config, options)
     Object.keys(paths).forEach(key => {
       moduleAlias.addAlias(key, paths[key])
     })
     return true
   }

   Implementation is this:

   require('alias-hq').get('node')

   OK, have added support in v5.1:

   • https://github.com/davestewart/alias-hq/blob/master/docs/integrations.md#node

   The plugin integration is here:

   • https://github.com/davestewart/alias-hq/blob/master/src/plugins/module-alias/index.js

   Not sure if you want to mention it in your docs at all?

   Hey, no worries! I know what it's like trying to keep a hand on all the OSS projects. They are constantly asking for time you don't always have 😬
