@s100

Description

This is browserify@13.0.1 and Node.js v6.2.2.

file.json:

{
  key: "value"
}

index.js:

require("./file.json");

Command line:

Expected output: some kind of error because of the invalid JSON?

Actual output:

(function e(t,n,r){function s(o,u){if(!n[o]){if(!t[o]){var a=typeof require=="function"&&require;if(!u&&a)return a(o,!0);if(i)return i(o,!0);var f=new Error("Cannot find module '"+o+"'");throw f.code="MODULE_NOT_FOUND",f}var l=n[o]={exports:{}};t[o][0].call(l.exports,function(e){var n=t[o][1][e];return s(n?n:e)},l,l.exports,e,t,n,r)}return n[o].exports}var i=typeof require=="function"&&require;for(var o=0;o<r.length;o++)s(r[o]);return s})({1:[function(require,module,exports){
module.exports={
  key: "value"
}

},{}],2:[function(require,module,exports){
require("./file.json");
},{"./file.json":1}]},{},[2]);
