Looks you want separate behaviour for every module require()ing you. Why 
not force every caller to instantiate an object of your custom class type, 
passing in a directory location? This has the added side effect of allowing 
a single module to instantiate multiple objects with potentially different 
arguments (something you might need later - it at least smells like it).
