Can't find mongoose module NodeJS require

Question

for some reason I can't get my require to work, it should just find both models fine but the path for the file just won't work.

Seems like a simple fix but cannot seem to do it myself right now. I'm using (var User = require('/app/models/user.js');)

Thanks guys.

The exact error I am getting is Error: Cannot find module '/app/models/user.js' — nickmcblain, Aug 14 '15 at 22:29
That worked, that is probably the last combination I tried haha, can you explain why that worked? — nickmcblain, Aug 14 '15 at 22:31
. Appended means the current directory path + app/models/..... — Viddesh, Aug 14 '15 at 23:48

Actually you also can write it as,

var User = require('./app/models/user')

without even putting .js at the end, as it is added by default.. Just a tip to know :)

and here ./ means the current directory.

Hope it helps :)
