bem-environ

Usage

Install it with npm

› npm install bem-environ --save

If you plan to distribute your module/library as an npm package, add bem-environ to bundledDependencies section (see example) in your package.json. This is due to every BEM library need its own copy of bem-environ, but npm tries to optimise packages installation.

{
    "bundledDependencies": ["bem-environ"]
}

Update your project's make.js to extend common build process provided by bem-tools

// make.js
 
// Initialize environ with global root path (see API section for more examples)
var environ = require('bem-environ')(__dirname);
 
function extendMake(registry) {
 
    // Extend common `bem make` build process with `bem-environ`'s nodes (optional)
    environ.extendMake(registry);
 
    registry.decl('Arch', {
 
      // ...
 
    });
 
};
 
// For compatibility with bem-tools << 1.0.0
if (MAKE) extendMake(MAKE);
 
// For compatibility with bem-tools >= 1.0.0
if (module && module.exports) module.exports = extendMake;
