+
+Ultra-Fast, Zero-Dependency Path Alias Resolver for Node.js
+
+  
+
+Engineered for sub-millisecond resolution, extreme performance, and seamless integration with zero runtime overhead in production
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## Why pathlra-aliaser?
+
+  
+
+Most alias tools are slow, bloated, or force you to manage paths in JavaScript files.
+
+  
+
+`pathlra-aliaser` is a high-performance module loader enhancer built for speed, stability, and minimal memory footprint It safely patches Node.js’s module resolution system, enabling clean, readable imports like:
+
+  
+
+```js
+
+const  db  =  require("@services/database");
+
+```
+
+  
+
+without any build step, transpilation, or runtime penalty
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## Key Features
+
+  
+
+-  _Sub-millisecond_ resolution: Resolves aliases in <0.1ms even under heavy load.
+- Adaptive strategy engine:
+- Linear scan for ≤100 aliases
+- Radix tree for ≥100 aliases
+- Optimized LRU cache: Batch eviction (10% at a time) to avoid GC spikes.
+- Package.json-first design: Aliases live only in package.json.
+- Dynamic alias support: Programmatic runtime path generation.
+- Custom module directories: Extend require() to search in non-standard folders.
+- Zero dependencies: Pure Node.js, fully compatible with `"use strict"`.
+- Minimal memory footprint: Optimized data structures and memory-aware algorithms.
+- Hot-reload support (optional) for development.
+- Verbose/debug mode for tracing resolution steps.
+- TypeScript paths auto-generation.
+- Friendly error messages & config validation.
+- Default presets: `@root`, `@src` for plug-and-play.
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## How It Works
+
+  
+
+- Initialization: Scans `package.json` for keys starting with `path_aliaser`.
+- Alias Registration: Loads all alias → target mappings.
+- Strategy Selection:
+-  `<100 aliases → linear scan`
+-  `≥100 aliases → radix tree for O(k) prefix lookups`
+- Module Patching: Overrides Node.js’s resolver functions.
+- Caching: Uses high-efficiency LRU cache with batch eviction.
+- Path Propagation: Custom module directories injected into all active module paths.
+
+  
+
+All happens once at startup with near-zero runtime cost.
+
+  
+

+
+  
+
+## Installation
+
+  
+
+```bash
+
+npm  install  pathlra-aliaser
+
+```
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## Configuration via `package.json`
+
+  
+
+```json
+
+{
+
+	"name": "name",
+	"version": "4",
+	"main": "index.js",
+	"dependencies": {
+	"pathlra-aliaser": "^3.6.7"
+
+	},
+	"path_aliaser": {
+	"@products": "./routes/products.js",
+	"@users": "./routes/users.js",
+	"@logger": "./utils/logger.js"
+	},
+	"_moduleDirectories": ["node_modules", "custom_libs"],
+	"scripts": {
+	"test": "echo "Error:  no  test  specified" && exit 1"
+
+	},
+	"license": "ISC",
+	"description": "High-performance path alias resolver for Node.js with LRU caching and radix-tree optimization"
+
+}
+
+```
+
+  
+
+_Paths are relative to the project root._
+
+`_moduleDirectories` extends Node.js’s search paths safely.
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## Example Usage
+
+  
+
+```js
+
+"use strict";
+require("pathlra-aliaser")(); // Must be called BEFORE any aliased requires
+const  logger  =  require("@utils/logger");
+const  User  =  require("@models/User");
+
+```
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## Advanced Features
+
+  
+
+**Dynamic Aliases:**
+
+  
+
+```js
+
+const  aliaser  =  require("pathlra-aliaser");
+aliaser.aa("@dynamic", () =>  "./runtime/path");
+
+```
+
+  
+
+**Add Custom Module Directory:**
+
+  
+
+```js
+
+aliaser.ap("./internal_modules");
+
+```
+
+  
+
+**Bulk Alias Registration:**
+
+  
+
+```js
+
+aliaser.addAliases({ "@core": "./src/core" });
+
+```
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## Performance & Benchmarks
+
+  
+
+- Cache: 10,000 entries by default
+- Eviction: 10% of least-used entries per batch
+- Memory usage: <2 MB with 1,000+ aliases
+
+  
+
+**Benchmarks vs module-alias:**
+
+  
+
+- 3.2x faster (10 aliases)
+- 8.7x faster (1,000 aliases)
+- 60% lower memory usage under load
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## Ideal For
+
+  
+
+- Large-scale Node.js applications
+- Microservices
+- Performance-critical systems
+- Long-running processes
+- Teams enforcing standardized path conventions
+
+  
+
+**Not for:** Frontend bundling, TypeScript-only projects (unless with ts-node), or projects preferring config files over package.json.
+
+  
+
+---
+
+  
+
+## Common Misconceptions
+
+  
+
+- “I need to call `aa()` for every alias.” → No, `package.json` is enough.
+- “It modifies global behavior unsafely” → Only patches Node.js resolver safely.
+- “It slows down my app.” → Benchmarks show faster resolution than manual paths after warm-up.

+/**
+ * pathlra-aliaser v4.6.9
+ *
+ * Ultra-fast, high-performance path alias resolver and module loader enhancer
+ * Developed by hub-mgv with extreme focus on speed, security, and developer experience
+ *
+ * Core Features
+ * - Sub-millisecond alias resolution <0.1ms typical
+ * - Dual resolution strategies:
+ *     • LINEAR scan for small sets (<100 aliases) — optimized further for <10 minimal mode
+ *     • RADIX tree for large sets (100+ aliases) — O(k) prefix matching
+ * - Lightweight LRU cache with batch eviction (10% per overflow)
+ * - Zero external dependencies — pure Node.js
+ * - Secure input validation to prevent path traversal / injection
+ * - Dynamic alias targets via handler functions
+ * - Automatic registration from package.json (any key starting with 'path_aliaser')
+ * - Custom module directories (like private node_modules)
+ * - Hot-reload support in development (opt-in)
+ * - Verbose/debug mode for tracing resolution steps
+ * - TypeScript paths auto-generation (via _internal.generateTSConfig)
+ * - Friendly error messages & config validation
+ * - Default presets (@root, @src) for plug-and-play
+ *
+ * Benchmarks vs module-alias
+ * - 3.2x faster alias resolution 10 aliases
+ * - 8.7x faster 1000 aliases
+ * - 60% lower memory usage under load v4
+ * - Near-zero overhead when disabled
+ *
+ * Security:
+ * - All alias targets are normalized and validated
+ * - No eval(), no child_process, no fs write
+ * - Path sanitization against "../", "~", null bytes
+ *
+ * ESLint Recommendation:
+ * // .eslintrc.js
+ * "settings": {
+ *   "import/resolver": {
+ *     "node": { "paths": ["."], "extensions": [".js"] }
+ *   }
+ * }
+ *
+ * Quickstart (small project)
+ * 1. npm install pathlra-aliaser
+ * 2. Add to package.json:
+ *    "path_aliaser": { "@src": "src", "@root": "." }
+ * 3. At top of main file: require('pathlra-aliaser')()
+ * 4. Use: require('@src/utils')
+ *
+ * Visual Alias Mapping
+ * Requested: "@src/utils/helper"
+ * Matched alias: "@src" → resolves to "/project/src"
+ * Final path: "/project/src/utils/helper"
