Uses examples

• Initial project folder structure

  Project folder/
  ├─ build/
  │  ├─ test-output/
  ├─ data/
  │  ├─ json/
  │  │  ├─ basic-lom/
  │  │  │  ├─ basic.lom.json
  │  │  ├─ multi-lom/
  │  │  │  ├─ basic.lom.json
  │  │  │  ├─ script.lom.json
  │  │  ├─ script-lom/
  │  │  │  ├─ script.lom.json
  ├─ index.js

• Use examples in a JS file

  // index.js
  const BASE_DIR = 'build/test-output';
  const folderName = 'basic-lom';
  
  // Base directory is the executing file directory
  new LomCompiler()
     // Source file path
     .source('data/json/basic-lom/basic.lom.json')
     // Directory path where to save the result (folder will be created in case of needed)
     .outputDir(`${BASE_DIR}/${folderName}`)
     .compile();

  // index.js
  const BASE_DIR = 'build/test-output';
  const folderName = 'script-lom';
  
  // Base directory defined
  new LomCompiler(BASE_DIR)
     // Source file path relative to base directory
     .source('../../data/json/script-lom/script.lom.json')
     // Folder name used inside the base directory
     .outputDir(folderName)
     .compile();

  // index.js
  const BASE_DIR = 'build/test-output';
  const folderName = 'multi-lom';
  
  // Base directory defined
  new LomCompiler(BASE_DIR)
     // Source files directory path relative to base directory
     .source('../../data/json/multi-lom')
     // Folder name used inside the base directory
     .outputDir(folderName)
     .compile();
