Better local require() paths for Node.js

Problem

When the directory structure of your Node.js application (not library!) has some depth, you end up with a lot of annoying relative paths in your require calls like:

const Article = require('../../../../app/models/article');

Those suck for maintenance and they're ugly.

	npm set registry https://r.npm.taobao.org # 注册模块镜像
	npm set disturl https://npm.taobao.org/dist # node-gyp 编译依赖的 node 源码镜像

	## 以下选择添加
	npm set sass_binary_site https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/node-sass # node-sass 二进制包镜像
	npm set electron_mirror https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/electron/ # electron 二进制包镜像
	npm set ELECTRON_MIRROR https://cdn.npm.taobao.org/dist/electron/ # electron 二进制包镜像
	npm set puppeteer_download_host https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors # puppeteer 二进制包镜像
	npm set chromedriver_cdnurl https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/chromedriver # chromedriver 二进制包镜像
	npm set operadriver_cdnurl https://npm.taobao.org/mirrors/operadriver # operadriver 二进制包镜像

	'use strict';
	/**
	* Module dependencies.

	var async = require('async'),
	mongoose = require('mongoose'),
	ObjectId = mongoose.Types.ObjectId;

	var db = mongoose.connect('mongodb://localhost:27017/test', {}, function (err) {
