Brian Forbis commented on THRIFT-3547:
--------------------------------------

Is there any update on this? It seems that namespaces are completely 
unimplemented in Javascript as far as I can tell.

> NodeJS generated require() paths should mirror include paths

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3547
>             Project: Thrift
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Node.js - Compiler
>    Affects Versions: 0.9.3
>            Reporter: Yunchi Luo
>            Priority: Major
>
> NodeJS uses file paths rather than namespaces to manage modules. However, the 
> Thrift generated code ignores file paths.
> I.e. if we have
> foo.thrift:
> include "../../shared.thrift";
> It will turn into
> foo_types.js:
> var shared_types = require("./shared.thrift");
> This forces us to put all generated node code in the same directory. It's 
> problematic since if we happen to have
> a/foo.thrift
> b/foo.thrift
> One file will have to overwrite the other...
> I'm happy to make a patch for this, but unclear to me how much of a breaking 
> change this would be for people, if it is at all.
