tin
Easily manage NPM, component, and bower package files.
Why?
Managing Node.js and browser side JavaScript packages can be a pain in the ass. Editing multiple fields in package.json
(Node.js/NPM), component.json
(browser/component), and bower.json
(browser/bower) is tedious. Tin makes this easier.
Installation
npm install -g tin
Specs
- component: https://github.com/component/component/wiki/Spec
- npm: https://npmjs.org/doc/json.html
- bower: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1APq7oA9tNao1UYWyOm8dKqlRP2blVkROYLZ2fLIjtWc/edit (not sure if this is the most to date one)
Usage
Any of the three files package.json
, component.json
, and bower.json
must exist. Tin will not create these files if they don't exist and they're not proper JSON.
Usage: tin [options]
Options:
-h, --help output usage information
-p, --path [path] The path that contains the package files. Defaults to the current directory.
--create If any of the files don't exist, it creates them.
--check Check to verify files are valid. Don't use in conjunction with any other options.
-d, --desc [description] Update package descriptions.
-k, --keywords [keywords] Add to package keywords.
-m, --main [script] Update main script file.
