-
-> Get the path of the parent module
-
-Node.js exposes `module.parent`, but it only gives you the first cached parent, which is not necessarily the actual parent.
-
-
-## Install
-
-```
-$ npm install parent-module
-```
-
-
-## Usage
-
-```js
-// bar.js
-const parentModule = require('parent-module');
-
-module.exports = () => {
- console.log(parentModule());
- //=> '/Users/sindresorhus/dev/unicorn/foo.js'
-};
-```
-
-```js
-// foo.js
-const bar = require('./bar');
-
-bar();
-```
-
-
-## API
-
-### parentModule([filepath])
-
-By default, it will return the path of the immediate parent.
-
-#### filepath
-
-Type: `string`<br>
-Default: [`__filename`](https://nodejs.org/api/globals.html#globals_filename)
-
-Filepath of the module of which to get the parent path.
-
-Useful if you want it to work [multiple module levels down](https://github.com/sindresorhus/parent-module/tree/master/fixtures/filepath).
-
-
-## Tip
-
-Combine it with [`read-pkg-up`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/read-pkg-up) to read the package.json of the parent module.
-
-```js
-const path = require('path');
-const readPkgUp = require('read-pkg-up');
-const parentModule = require('parent-module');
-
-console.log(readPkgUp.sync({cwd: path.dirname(parentModule())}).pkg);
-//=> {name: 'chalk', version: '1.0.0', …}
-```
