Propagate Replacement Fields

> Take a package.json field and copy paste its contents to all package.json of modules inside /node_modules

So let's imagine you have these replacement modules (e.g. for browserify) in your project's package.json:

``
"browser": {
"stream": "stream-browserify",
"os": "os-browserify"
}
`

Or in your React Native project:

`
"react-native": {
"crypto": "react-native-crypto",
"tcp": "react-native-tcp",
"fs": false
}
`

And you want those to be present also in the package.json for each module installed in your project's /node_modules. This is sometimes needed, specially for eccentric React Native projects using Node.js specific stuff.

So that's when you use propagate-replacement-fields, like this:

`
npm install --save-dev propagate-replacement-fields
`

`
./node_modules/.bin/propagate-replacement-fields --field=browser
`

And then that field "browser" from your project's package.json will be cloned also into the dependencies installed in node_modules.

Note, if you want to specify where is the source package.json, you can pass its path to --source:

`
./node_modules/.bin/propagate-replacement-fields --field=browser --source=../over-there
`

Similarly, if you want to specify where is the destination node_modules, you
can pass its path to --destination (no need to specify the last part, "/node_modules"):

`
./node_modules/.bin/propagate-replacement-fields --field=browser --destination=./over-here
`

install

`
npm install propagate-replacement-fields
`

usage

`
propagate-replacement-fields --help
`

`
