Gobble plugin to naïvely include some files into other files
npm install gobble-includeGobble plugin to naïvely include some files into other files.
Sometimes you need to include some file into other files. Maybe you've tried gobble-replace but doesn't work with files, and gobble-browserify is overkill.
gobble-include covers that gap. Just Write include('otherfile.ext').
I assume you already know the basics of Gobble.
``bash`
npm i -D gobble-include
Let's assume you've got two files named data.json and code.js:
`json`
{ "foo": "foo", "bar": "bar" }
`javascript`
var something = include('data.json');
do(something);
After running gobble-include, the file data.json will be deleted and code.js will contain:
`javascript`
var something = { "foo": "foo", "bar", "bar" };
do(something);
Available options are those described in this gobblefile.js example:
`javascript
var gobble = require( 'gobble' );
module.exports = gobble( 'src' ).transform( 'include', {
// supply custom delimiters
delimiters: [ '<%=', '%>' ],
// Force generating a sourcemap (by default maps are generated for .css and .js)
sourceMap: true
});
`
gobble-include is naïve. This means it:
* Ignores double quotes in include("file"). The default is single quotes.include('file')
* Doesn't care about language syntax. e.g. doesn't mean anything in raw HTML, but files will still be included because the string matches. Custom delimiters can alleviate this.gobble-browserify
* Doesn't care about multiple levels of included files or dependency graphs. Consider or carefully run gobble-include in serial.
* Sourcemaps do not include information about the included files.
