glob-json v0.0.2

glob-json

Installation

npm i glob-json

Description

Utility to modify JSON files with globbing patterns. It uses 'glob' and 'minimatch' in 'dot:true' mode. Since the '/' character is used as a path separator for keys, this tool has some limitations. For example, 'x/*/z' key pattern will match '{ x: { y: { z: 1 } } }', but not '{ x: { "y/w": { z: 1 }}}'.

Usage:

glob-json <dstPathGlob> [srcPath] <set|del|merge> <dstKeyGlob> [--key|--number|--string|--true|--false|--null|srcKey] [value]

Options:

dstPathGlob - a glob pattern to select destination files
srcPath - path to a source file, if not specified each destination file will be its own source

Commands:

set <dstKeyGlob> [--string|--number|--true|--false|--null|--key] [value]
