By default, package.json is used as the source of truth but you can specify any source and any fields you want to synchronize.
Only the fields specified are synchronized. The other fields are left untouched.
This is a plugin for gulp 3.
Install gulp-config-sync as a development dependency
``sh`
$ npm install gulp-config-sync --save-dev
In your gulpfile.js
`javascript
// import plugin
var sync = require('gulp-config-sync');
gulp.task('sync', function() {
gulp.src(['bower.json', 'component.json'])
.pipe(sync())
.pipe(gulp.dest('.')); // write it to the same dir
});
`
You can run the new task in the termininal
`sh`
$ gulp sync
Or add it to existing tasks
`javascript`
gulp.task('default', ['sync']);
