npm-dependencies-merge v1.0.5

npm-dependencies-merge

npm-dependencies-merge is a nifty little script that scans subdirectories searching for nested package.json files, and merges all the dependencies together in a single package.json file that is outputted to stdout.

A base template passed through standard input is used to produce the root package.json file. This allows package.json to be ignored by version control systems, which conflict with auto-generated files. Base package attributes, like name and version, can be stored in a separate file such as package-base.json, and kept in version control.

Example

$ cd project_directory
$ npm-dependencies-merge < package-base.json > package.json

Installation

$ npm install -g npm-dependencies-merge
