home-config
Advanced tools
Readme
This Node.js module provides an easy way to read and write configuration files in a user's home directory, where many Linux applications store configuration files.
To install it: npm install home-config
The home directory is process.env.HOME
, unless you are on Windows, in which
case it is process.env.USERPROFILE
.
Configuration files are stored in ini format as parsed by
isaacs/ini. key = value
lines work, and
[section]
appears as an object with any properties under it as keys.
Basic usage is to require the module and call .load()
with your desired
config filename:
var cfg = require('home-config').load('.myapprc');
// or
var cfg = require('home-config').load('.myapprc', {
optionName : 'defaultValue'
});
You can make changes then save your config file (but any user comments or indentation will be removed):
cfg.section = {
property : 'x'
};
cfg.save();
// or
cfg.save('some-other-filename');
The following top-level config key names are prohibited and will not be saved or loaded:
save
getAll
__filename
Finally, this package is designed to work with config files in the current
user's home directory, but all filenames are passed to
path.resolve
, so
if you pass an absolute path to .load()
or .save()
then it will be used
as-is.
