UPGRADE.md

Upgrade from 1.x.x to 2.x.x

New export/structure

1.x.x:

const config = require('electron-json-config');

2.x.x:

factory() is now responsible of the instanciation.

CommonJS

const config = require('electron-json-config').factory();

ES Modules

import { factory } from 'electron-json-config';

const config = factory();

Default file usage

The library keeps its default file functionality but will not check if the electron app is read.

1.x.x:

Returned the default configuration from the default file.

const config = require('electron-json-config');

2.x.x:

Returns the default configuration from the default file

CommonJS

const config = require('electron-json-config').factory();

ES Modules

import { factory } from 'electron-json-config';

const config = factory();

Multifile

See factory section of README.

2.x.x introduce the ability to have multiple configurations (and associated files) at the same time.

2.x.x:

CommonJS

const factory = require('electron-json-config').factory;

const defaultConf = factory();
const testConf = factory('/data/test.json');

ES Modules

import { factory } from 'electron-json-config';

const config = factory();

const defaultConf = factory();
const testConf = factory('/data/test.json');

Key versality

See Key section of README.

Keys can now be:

• a classic string key
  eg: 'foo'
• a dotted string multi level key
  eg: 'foo.bar'
• an array of string representing a multi level key
  eg: ['foo', 'bar']

2.x.x: require syntax

// A simple key => ['foo']
config.get('foo');

// These are equivalent => ['foo', 'bar']
config.get('foo.bar');
config.get(['foo', 'bar']);
