Example Usage

We start with our task. Our source file is a JSON file containing our configuration. We will pipe this through gulpNgConfig and out will come an angular module of constants.

var gulp = require('gulp');
var gulpNgConfig = require('gulp-ng-config');

gulp.task('test', function () {
  gulp.src('configFile.json')
  .pipe(gulpNgConfig('myApp.config'))
  .pipe(gulp.dest('.'))
});

Assume that configFile.json contains:

{
  "string": "my string",
  "integer": 12345,
  "object": {"one": 2, "three": ["four"]},
  "array": ["one", 2, {"three": "four"}, [5, "six"]]
}

Running gulp test will take configFile.json and produce configFile.js with the following content:

angular.module('myApp.config', [])
.constant('string', "my string")
.constant('integer', 12345)
.constant('object', {"one":2,"three":["four"]})
.constant('array', ["one",2,{"three":"four"},[5,"six"]]);

We now can include this configuration module in our main app and access the constants

angular.module('myApp', ['myApp.config']).run(function (string) {
  console.log("The string constant!", string) // outputs "my string"
});
