## README

#compile_main_file
iterates all subdirectories in a directory
writes a module.exports line for each file containd in each sub directories

### example
####say you have a directory called "./lib_dir/"
`./lib_dir/`| | 
---|---|---
  |TEST1/|  
  |  |file_1.js
  |  |file_2.json
  |TEST2/|  
  |  |file_3.js
CAUTION: provided file_name variable will be overwritten in the main directory,
each file must have a unique name; an error will throw if this occurs, your compile file will be broken until you fix the error and rerun
```javascript
let compile_main_file = require(compile_main_file)
compile_main_file("./lib_dir/", "index")
```
####index.js will compiled to look like this
```javascript
module.exports.file_1=require('./lib_dir/TEST1/file_1.js') 
module.exports.file_2=require('./lib_dir/TEST1/file_2.json') 
module.exports.file_3=require('./lib_dir/TEST2/file_3.js') 
```
