Emmet config resolver

This module provides resolver for config that can be passed to Emmet abbreviation expander as options argument. The config may contain global, syntax- and project-specific preferences like output format or snippets and config resolver creates final options payload with proper preferences overrides.

Config format

Config is a JSON file that contains global, syntax- and projects specific preferences. Currently, Emmet distinct two types of abbreviations: markup (for languages like HTML, XML, Slim etc.) and stylesheet (CSS, SASS, Less etc.), each of them has different settings and usage semantics. In order to globally configure all markup and/or stylesheet abbreviations, use globals key with markup and stylesheet subkeys accordingly:

``js
{
"globals": {
"markup": {
"profile": {
// Output all tags in uppercase
"tagCase": "upper"
},

// Add custom snippets to all markup-based syntaxes
"snippets": {
"site-nav": "nav>ul.nav>li.nav-item"
}
},
"stylesheet": {
// Add custom snippets to all stylesheet-based syntaxes
"snippets": {
"black": "color: black"
}
}
}
}
`

For available options, see types.d.ts file.

Sometimes you may want to add syntax-specific preferences. For example, you may want to customize SASS syntax with new snippets but don’t want to use them in CSS. In this case, you should use syntax key and a syntax name as a subkey:

`js
{
"syntax": {
"sass": {
// In syntax-specific config, type must be either "markup" or "stylesheet"
"type": "stylesheet",
"snippets": {
"inc": "@include"
}
}
}
}
`

Contents of syntax-specific config is the same as global config.

You may also want to configure Emmet specifically for a project. Use "project" top-level key with project ID as a subkey:

`js
{
"project": {
"my-project1": {
// Use globals and syntax sections as described above
"globals": { ... },
"syntax": { ... }
}
}
}
`

Resolver API

Config resolver is a function that takes JSON config and params that identify current context: abbreviation type, syntax and project.

`js
import { expand } from '@emmetio/expand-abbreviation';
import resolveConfig from '@emmetio/config';

// Obtain config JSON somehow
const config = readFile('emmet-config.json');

// Identify current context
const params = {
type: 'markup',
syntax: 'html',
project: 'my-project1'
};

const result = expand('ul>li', resolveConfig(config, params));

console.log(result);
`

Available context options:

* type: type of abbreviation, either markup or stylesheet.
* syntax: syntax name, a subkey of syntax section.
* project: ID of project, a subkey of project` section.

Config resolver will create a final options payload for abbreviation expander, depending on context params.
