title: how to require from URL in Node.js
body: <p>Is there a standard way to require a Node module located at some URL (not on the local filesystem)?</p>
  
  <p>Something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>require('http://example.com/nodejsmodules/myModule.js');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Currently, I am simply fetching the file into a temporary file, and requiring that. </p>
