Merge Configuration file

This project is just a small demo to show how we might want to help users update this prototype kit by merging various files.

Get started

  • Pull down this repo

NPM script

  • npm start - shorthand for npm run kit
  • npm run kit - NPM installs dependencies and then updates the kit
  • npm run kit:update - just updates the kit

I've namespaced the scripts to show that we might want grainular control of the install/run process

Test Scenarios

  1. User has downloaded the kit but has changed some of the options

    • Run npm run kit:update
    • check app/config.js values should still be remembered

  2. Design Team decide to add new attributes to kit/config/config.js

    • add new key/value paid to kit/config/config.js
    • Run npm run kit:update
    • check app/config.js previous values should still be set and new attributes/values should be added

(OPTIONAL) - Add help text to to kit/config/config-help-text.js - Run npm run kit:update - check app/config.js previous values should still be set and new attributes/values should be added along with help text

To do

  • Merge other application assets
  • warn if configuration options are being depreciated or deleted
  • automatically fetch latest kit release
