How can I import a node js project to another node js project?

Question

I want to use /folder1/folder2/a.js in /folder3/folder4/b.js.

In b.js, i tried

var a = require('../folder1/folder2/a.js');

but this is not working. Please suggest me the correct way to do this.

error:module.js:471
    throw err;
    ^

> Error: Cannot find module '../folder1/folder2/a.js' at Function.Module._resolveFilename (module.js:469:15) at Function.Module._load (module.js:417:25) at Module.require (module.js:497:17) at require (internal/module.js:20:19) at Object.

Are you going up enough paths? Might need to do ../../folder1/folder2/a.js — Stephen Gilboy

Could you please include the output of the following commands (to make sure this is not a pathing issue): ls ../ ls ../folder1 ls ../folder1/folder2 — Benjamin Dean

according to the output message you're giving a wrong path of the file.

Error: Cannot find module '
