Cannot add path '../modules'?

[blaasvaer]

I need to add the custom resolve path '../modules' to node but can't seem to do so?

What am I missing in using this module correct?

Below 'router' is called from a module 'app/index.js' and I have a modules folder for shared modules a level up.

require('app-module-path').addPath('../modules');
const Router = require('router');
