plasma

Normalize config formats, expand globbing/minimatch patterns and read-in JSON/YAML data files.

npm i plasma --save

Usage

var plasma = require('plasma');

plasma.find({src: ['*.json']});

API

.find( options )

If an object with a src property is passed in, plasma will attempt to expand any glob/minimatch patterns into an array of resolved filepaths.

.normalize( config )

Normalize config formats for source files, so that any of the following will work:

• {src: ''}
• {data: {src: ''}}
• {data: [{src: ''}, {src: ''}]}

Returns an object with two properties:

• raw: array of objects that do not have src properties will be pushed into the raw property so that globule doesn't try to search for filepaths when they don't exist.
• data: array of objects with src properties, each of which is an array of filepaths or un-expanded glob patterns.

.expand( options )

Process patterns in the src properties of objects passed from plasma.normalize(). Uses plasma.find() to expand each src property into an array of resolved filepaths.

.load( config, options )

Actually read-in data from src files.

.coerce( config, options )

Manipulate the final output into either an array of objects, or an object of objects.

Tests

Until mocha tests are implemented, run node test/test.

Acknowlegement

node-configfiles by Tyler Kellen influenced some of the code in this lib, especially the approach for normalizing config formats. Thanks, Tyler!
