## README

#Require 2 Web
By *Christopher Eaton, Oregon USA*
- - -

##Description
Require2web (r2w) is a node.js command line utility that combines multiple JavaScript files into a single .js file for use in the browser.
It allows you to structure your Javascript library like a node.js application, and make require() calls to other modules.
When your project is compiled with require2web, and included on your website, you can continue to make require() calls to dynamically load modules.

##Installation
It's generally recommended to install r2w as a global library. Once this is done you can start it like any other command-line utility using the
command "r2w", as shown in the usage section below.

```sh
npm install -g require2web
```

##Usage
```sh
Usage: r2w {-c "<config file>"} {-p "<path>"} {-i "<path to ignore>"} -o <output.js>

*The path options (-p and -i) can be specified multiple times.

Options:
  -c, --config       Specify a project configuration file.                                                                               
  -g                 Output the default project configuration json. This can be copied to a configuration file for use with your project.
  -p, --paths        The files or directories (to scan recursively) to merge.                                                            
  -i, --ignorepaths  The files or directories that will be ignored.                                                                      
  -o, --output       The name of the output file containing the merged code.                                                             
  --package          Specifies the package.json file to find the main *.js file to begin the merge process.                              
  -h, --help         Show this help message.  
```

####Considerations
 - The output template defines a the require() function - if you are using another library that may conflict with this, you can modify the 
"output.template" file in the "templates" folder and simply rename the require method.
 - To generate a default r2w config file use "r2w -g > r2w.config" on any unix/linux machine.
