# get-caller-file
[](https://travis-ci.org/stefanpenner/get-caller-file)[](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/embercli/get-caller-file/branch/master)
This is a utility, which allows a function to figure out from which file it was invoked. It does so by inspecting v8's stack trace at the time it is invoked.
Inspired by http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13227489
*note: this relies on Node/V8 specific APIs, as such other runtimes may not work*
## Installation
```bashyarn add get-caller-file```
## Usage
Given:
```js// ./foo.jsconst getCallerFile = require('get-caller-file');
module.exports = function() { return getCallerFile(); // figures out who called it};```
```js// index.jsconst foo = require('./foo');
foo() // => /full/path/to/this/file/index.js```
## Options:
* `getCallerFile(position = 2)`: where position is stack frame whos fileName we want.
