The proposal “import.meta” by Domenic Denicola is currently at stage 3. This blog post explains how it works.
Module metadata
When it comes to working with a module, you are normally interested in what’s inside it. But occasionally, you need information about the module – its metadata. One example of module metadata for Node.js modules is the global variable __dirname which contains the path of the directory in which the current module is stored.
The proposal introduces the pseudo-property import.meta which holds an object with metadata for the current module. Let’s look at uses cases for module metadata.
