API

gitfig(@type|path)

@type

Possible values are 0 and 2. Can be accessed throw the constants in exported object: LOCAL, HOME.

Example:

const gitFig = require('gitfig');

console.log(gitFig.LOCAL);
console.log(gitFig.HOME);

path

Type: string

Path for looking git config for. Works for both git repos (you don't need to add .git in path) and (custom) home path.

Asynchronously looks up for git config by cascade: 1. The local config is looked for 2. The home config is looked for

Returns promise which rejects if git config is not found.

Alternatively you can specify concrete place of look up:

const gitFig = require('gitfig');

gitFig(); // cascade
gitFig(gitFig.LOCAL); // current working directory (from where script is called)
gitFig(gitFig.HOME); // current user's home path
gitFig('/var/www/mysite'); // looks for /var/www/mysite/.git/config or if failed - /var/www/mysite/.gitconfig

gitfig.sync(@type)

Synchronous version (with the same lookup behaviour) which returns value rather then promise. Throws an error if git config is not found.
