file-reader

Read a glob of files, dynamically choosing the reader or requiring the files based on the file extension.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install file-reader --save

Usage

Read a glob of files:

var read = require('file-reader');
 
read('*.js');
//=> { a: [Function: aaa], b: [Function: bbb], c: [Function: ccc] }
 
read('*.txt');
//=> { a: 'AAA', b: 'BBB', c: 'CCC' }
 
read('*.{yml,json}');
//=> { a: { a: 'a' }, b: { b: 'b' }, c: { c: 'c' } }

Read a single file (you must supply the full file path, no glob patterns):

var read = require('file-reader');
 
read.file('a.js');
//=> { a: [Function: foo] }
 
read.file('a.txt');
//=> { a: 'foo' }
 
read('a.yml');
//=> { a: { foo: 'bar' } }
