Philosophy

File-Tracker is a tool made for you to easily share some files between projects, depending on a single file called tracker.json and avoiding using git submodules and/or Bit.

##Concepts

Each tracker.json file can have 2 sections:

Blueprints: Where resides the location of the previously made tracker.json, and from where the program will get the files.

Tracker: The files that this directory is serving to any other project that have it registered under the Blueprints array.

Note: File-Tracker is on early stages of development and a few bugs are expected. Info and bug-fix recommendations are welcome.

Documentation

Init

To init, just type:

The prompt will ask you to select which method to init: Blueprints ou Tracking

Update

To update the files, just type:

The prompt will check if the registered blueprints exists, search for the files there and make a (overwriting) copy of them in the destination folder.

Customization

You can edit the tracker.json file as free as you want to customize it to your needs!
