if(module.parent) is often used to check wether you are in a main file in a node program. if it was truthy, that would work.
for example:

and

There should be a way to do that - I don't think it matters wether it is really the parent module object, but this is a common usecase

from webpack.

module.exports

is already there

module.id

done

module.require

i cannot provide it, because it is not possible to resolve via static dependency resolution.
It will stay undefined.

module.filename

By design I not include filenames. see #5

module.parent module.children

Not used very often, and as it would require much more code in output bundle, i think it's not good to implement this.

module.loaded

done

from webpack.

It's ok that module is missing some properties. It seems to be unfinished in node as well:

Most people who enjoy Node’s module system only like it because they’ve never taken a close look at it. As one of its maintainers and chief architects, I feel qualified to say that it’s pretty terrible.
