Gulp JasYaCon

Note: This package is highly unstable and subject to backwards-incompatible changes

Occasionally we find ourselves with a lot of static JSON objects floating around our scripts, causing clutter and ugliness. JasYaCon (JSON YAML Consolidator) is able to convert a YAML file into a JSON object, and then place that object directly into your script wherever specified, allowing for cleaner code and extremely easy replication.

Arguments

• (glob) yamlGlob - The glob containing all of the yaml files for processing.
• (object) yamlArgs - These are passed directly into Yaml to Json. Please refer to that package's documentation.

Sample Use

First we have our yaml file. Let's say the full path is: ./src/yaml/Persons.yaml ```yaml

name: "John"
age: 23

name: "Sally"
age: 51

Now we have our javascript in which we want to import these people. Let's say the full path is ./src/js/myScript.js
```js
var ListOfPeople = /* !!jasyacon Persons */;

Finally, we have our gulpfile.js

var jasyacon = require('gulp-jasyacon'),
    gulp = require('gulp');

gulp.task("default", function() {
  gulp.src(['./src/js/**/*.js'])
    .pipe(jasyacon({yamlGlob: './src/yaml/**/*.yaml'}))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./public/'));
});

This will compile, creating a file with the path ./public/myScript.js That file will look like this:

var ListOfPeople = [{"name": "John", "age": 22},{"name": "Sally", "age", 51}];
