readme.md

readme.md is an application that allows easy updating of package.json files with the content from the README.md.

Installation

In order to install it you can run:

$ npm install -g readme.md

Usage

Then in the project that you develop you can run again:

$ readme-md-update

This will update your package.json file, setting the readme contents to the JSON escaped file.

Programmatic Access

In case you want to update a different file, or read a different file, or use a different property, you can also use it directly:

var readme = require("readme.md");

readme.writeFileIntoJson("README.md", "package.json", "readme");
