G33K PACKER

How To Use

In our project firectory, the best is to create a folder called 'packer' at the project root. In the folder, create a file 'index.js' and copy the sample code to it.

By default, the sample code will move his working directory to the project root process.chdir(path.normalize(__dirname+'/../')) ;

workingDir variable will be the root of your project.

Options

• packages : could be an object like in sample code or a json file

Run

Run it by being placed in your root directory and call

node packer/

Sample Code

try {

    process.exit(e.code);
}
