gulp-text2json

A Gulp plugin for compiling text files into adjacent JSON files that contain the contents of the source files as a JSON encoded strings.

Since Node.js and browserify can use the require() to include JSON data, this makes it easy to "require" a large block of text.

Usage

var text2json = require("gulp-text2json");

// JSON encode a single html file.
gulp.src("./src/foo.html")
	.pipe(text2json())
	.pipe(gulp.dest("./")); // ./src/foo.html.json

// JSON encode all the html files in your source tree.
gulp.src("./src/**/*.html")
	.pipe(text2json())
	.pipe(gulp.dest("./")); // ./src/**/*.html.json

// JSON encode all the files and move them into the "json" directory.
gulp.src("./src/**/*.html")
	.pipe(text2json())
	.pipe(gulp.dest("./json")); // ./json/**/*.html.json
