load-helpers

Load helpers with patterns, as an object, key-value pair, or module.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save load-helpers

Usage

var loader = require('load-helpers');
// optionally pass an object to use for caching the helpers
var cache = {};
var helpers = loader(cache);

// object of helpers
helpers({
  a: function() {},
  b: function() {},
  c: function() {}
});

// key-value pairs
helpers('d', function() {});
helpers('e', function() {});
helpers('f', function() {});

// glob pattern or file path, string or array
helpers('helpers/*.js'); // g, h, i

// required from node_modules
helpers('j');

Results in:

{
  a: function(){},
  b: function(){},
  c: function(){},
  d: function(){},
  e: function(){},
  f: function(){},
  g: function(){},
  h: function(){},
  i: function(){},
  j: function(){}
}

options.renameKey

When requiring helpers from a filepath or node_modules a renameKey function may be passed on the helper's options to customize how the key is named:

Example

helpers('for-own', {
  renameKey: function (key) {
    // naive camelize
    return key.replace(/\W(.)/g, function (_, ch) {
      return ch.toUpperCase();
    });
  }
});
//=> {forOwn: [function]}
