This is a fork of https://github.com/scholarcy/docx-merger with updated dependencies and some fixes.

- added type definitions

const fs = require('fs');
const path = require('path');
(async () => {
const file1 = fs.readFileSync(path.resolve(__dirname, 'template-0.docx'), 'binary');
const file2 = fs.readFileSync(path.resolve(__dirname, 'template-1.docx'), 'binary');
const docx = new DocxMerger();
await docx.initialize({},[file1,file2]);
// SAVING THE DOCX FILE
const data = await docx.save('nodebuffer');
fs.writeFileSync("output.docx", data);
})()
