rev-rewrite

Rename files with a revision hash, and then any rewrite references to the original file

Installation

npm install --save-dev rev-rewrite

Usage

Single file to revision & rewrite

 
npx rev --rev-pattern source/example.json --rev-dest build --rewrite-pattern template.yaml --rewrite-dest build
 

This will copy source/example.json to build/example.{hash}.json and update any references in template.yaml to example.json to example.{hash}.json.

Multiple files to revision & rewrite

You can pass in multiple patterns

 
npx rev --rev-pattern source/example.json --rev-pattern source/another.json --rev-dest build --rewrite-pattern template.yaml --rewrite-pattern other.yaml --rewrite-dest build
 

This will copy source/example.json and source/another.json to build, with the appropriate hashes, and update any references to example.json or another.json in template.yaml and other.yaml to include the rev hashes.

Globs

You can use globs.

 
npx rev --rev-pattern source/*.json --rev-dest build --rewrite-pattern *.yaml --rewrite-dest build
 

This will copy all json files from source to build, with rev hashes added to the file name, and update any references to the json files in any yaml files.

Limitations

This tool assumes that all rev'd filenames are unique, and doesn't try to understand relative paths. If you have source/a/example.json and source/b/example.json in the file you're rewriting, then both will be overwritten with the first occurrence.
