sync-config v0.0.1

sync-config

JSON and YAML configuration file loader with synchronization.

Tool to load a (configuration) file and monitor the resulting object for changes, which will then be automatically saved back to the file. Supports JSON and YAML files.

Usage

Use the library like this:

npm install --save sync-config

var load = require('sync-config')(options);

Load a configuration file:

var myConfig = load('path/to/myConfig.yaml');

Configuration

Providing an options object is not required. The following options can be set:

• indentationSpaces - Indentation spaces used for saving (default: 4)
• inlineLevel 8, - YAML depth level to start inlining properties (default 8)
• flushmilliseconds - Target write interval in milliseconds. Any write will open a gathering window of this size. Due to the single threaded nature of Node.js the actual window can vary. (default: 5000)
• doubleFireGracePeriod - Small grace period to discard double 'change' events on the tracked file, in ms. (default: 50)

Notes

This library is not meant for highly volatile or nested objects, it blunty writes each time a top level change occurs, no intelligence in that.
