Package Exports
- loader-cache
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (loader-cache) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
loader-cache

Register loader functions that dynamically read, parse or otherwise transform file contents when the name of the loader matches a file extension. You can also compose loaders from other loaders.
Example usage
var LoaderCache = require('loader-cache');
var loaders = new LoaderCache();
// register a loader for reading files
loaders.register('read', function(fp) {
return fs.readFileSync(fp, 'utf8');
});
// register a loader for parsing YAML
loaders.register('yaml', function(fp) {
return YAML.safeLoad(fp);
});
// create a loader from any combination of other
// registered loaders and functions.
loaders.register('dataLoader', ['read', 'yaml'], function(data) {
if (!data) throw new Error('no data!');
return data;
});
// pass a loader stack or the name of a loader to `.compose()`
// to create the actual function to be used for loading
var fn = loaders.compose('dataLoader');
var data = fn('config.yml');

API
LoaderCache
Create a new instance of LoaderCache
Example
var LoaderCache = require('loader-cache');
var loaders = new LoaderCache();
Register an iterator function of the given type
. Types typically
represent a kind of flow-control, like sync
, promise
, stream
,
async
etc.
Params
type
{String}options
{Object}fn
{Function}: The actual iterator function.returns
{Object}
Params
name
{String}options
{Object}fns
{Function|Array}: One or more loader functions or names of other registered loaders.returns
{Array}
Example
// create a loader from other loaders.
app.loader('foo', ['bar', 'baz']);
// pass a function
app.loader('foo', function(patterns, options) {
return glob.sync(patterns, options);
});
// combination
app.loader('foo', ['bar', 'baz'], function(patterns, options) {
return glob.sync(patterns, options);
});
Params
name
{String}: The name of the loader stack to use.options
{Object}stack
{Array|Function}: Additional loader names or functions.returns
{Function}
