Json Defiler

Recursively merge files in a directory into a single json object. Useful for breaking out config files into separate folders.

Installation

$ npm install json-defiler --save

Usage

var defiler = require('json-defiler');
var json = defiler('/path/to/dir').json;

Files named index.* do not generate new keys in the json object.

Example

Folder structure:

root/
+-- foo/
  +-- bar/
    +-- index.json
  +-- baz/
    +-- a.json
    +-- b.json
  +-- qux/
    +-- index.js

Defiler output:

{
  "json": {
    "foo": {
      "bar": { /* index.json */ },
      "baz": {
        "a": { /* a.json */},
        "b": { /* b.json */ }
      },
      "qux": { /* index.js */ }
    }
  }
}

Options

split - If set to true, files will be separated by their extension. Otherwise, all files will be merged into the returned json property.
