API

props([options])

options.namespace

Type: String

Default: config

The namespace to use when defining properties. Javascript reserved words cannot be used here. Invalid identifiers will be adjusted to be valid, and a warning will be printed in the console.

Note: To force a JSON output set this option to an empty string.

options.space

Type: Number or String

Default: null

Control spacing in the resulting output. It has the same usage as for JSON.stringify

The option is used only when namespace option is an empty string.

options.replacer

Type: Function or Array

Default: null

Further transform the resulting output. It has the same usage as for JSON.stringify

The option is used only when namespace option is an empty string.

options.appendExt

Type: Boolean

Default: false

Append the extension (.js or .json) instead of replacing it.

Useful if the property file doesn't have an extension.
