update-banner

Update the banner comment in a string of javascript.

Install

Install with npm:

$ npm install --save update-banner

Usage

In existing banners, copyright statements are updated using update-copyright. If the string does not have a banner one will be added using a template.

var banner = require('update-banner');
var str = fs.readFileSync('index.js', 'utf8');
banner(str);

Pass a custom template and/or data:

var copyright = 'Copyright (c) 2015, Jon Schlinkert.';
 
console.log(banner('/* <%= copyright %> */\n', {
  copyright: copyright 
}));
//=> '/* Copyright (c) 2015, Jon Schlinkert. */\n'

Options

options.template

Customize the template to use for creating a banner.

Example

This is the default template

/*!
 * <%= name %> <<%= repository %>>
 *
 * <%= copyright %>
 * Released under the <%= license %> License.
 */
