Is it possible to pass async version of editor function? Somehow like the following (simplified):

gulp.src("./manifest.json")
  .pipe(jeditor(function(json, cb) {
    readFile('somefile', function (content) {
         json.version = content.version;
         cb(json);
    });
  }))
  .pipe(gulp.dest("./dest"));

The devDependency mocha was updated from 6.0.2 to 6.1.0.

does it support higher version?

The js-beautify is out of date and prevents me from using the 'brace-style': 'collapse-preserve-inline' option, which was fixed for Node in 1.6.2.

Right now I'm trying to use npm shrinkwrap to work around this, which is a pain. Would be great just to see it updated. 😄

on node version 10.4.1 and 6.0.0 , both of them occur exception. Is it a bug?

Hi @morou
could you also transfer the ownership of this library in the npm registry to me? Otherwise I cannot release a new version :-(
Cheers and Thanks for all your work

gulp-util has been deprecated recently. Continuing to use this dependency may prevent the use of your library with the latest release of Gulp 4 so it is important to replace gulp-util.

The README.md lists alternatives for all the components so a simple replacement should be enough.

Your package is one of the most popular packages still relying on gulp-util, it would be good to publish a fixed version to npm as soon as possible.

See:

• https://medium.com/gulpjs/gulp-util-ca3b1f9f9ac5
• gulpjs/gulp-util#143

In my project the version 2.6.0 broke compatibility so I needed to reset to older versions, because of this error:
Invalid dependency type requested: alias

in these sub dependencies
4461 silly fetchPackageMetaData error for string-width-cjs@npm:string-width@^4.2.0 Invalid dependency type requested: alias
4462 silly fetchPackageMetaData error for strip-ansi-cjs@npm:strip-ansi@^6.0.1 Invalid dependency type requested: alias
4463 silly fetchPackageMetaData error for wrap-ansi-cjs@npm:wrap-ansi@^7.0.0 Invalid dependency type requested: alias

I would like to be able to bypass the beautification process. I can see there's an existing variable that can be used, but it's hard-coded.

I would like this exposed as one of the beautification options.

I'll go ahead and submit a PR, unless I'm missing something.

code is

var gulp = require('gulp');
var jeditor   = require('gulp-json-editor');
gulp.task('addjson','adds basic placeholder json',function(){
  return gulp.src('./aggregate.json')
  .pipe(jeditor(function(json) {
    json = "1.2.3";
    return json; // must return JSON object.
  }))
  .pipe(gulp.dest('.'));
});

Hey,

I might be stupid here, but is it not possible to delete the contents of an object, ie. I am trying to delete all dependencies and devDependencies from a package.json file, like this:

return gulp
    .src('package.json')
    .pipe(jsonEditor({
      'dependencies': {},
      'devDependencies': {}
    }))
    .pipe(gulp.dest(destination))

However, that doesn't seem to work. Any other way of emptying those objects using this gulp package?

Thanx in advance!

Would it be possible to take 2 or 3 JSON objects and merge them into one without duplicates?

I have 3 apps that each have their own menu configured in JSON. They each have menu items inside the same categories so each JSON will have Category1 and so on. I'd like to merge these JSON files together at build time so that at run time the menu doesn't care where the JSON comes from. It just builds the menu.

Is this kind of thing possible with gulp-json-editor?

Thanks,
Bob

I'd like to set wrap_line_length = 80 in js-beautify so I can easily read the contents of long arrays. Would you consider exposing the beautify options as an options parameter to json-editor?

Check out Kthulhu.

It's currently not possible to write boolean values into a JSON file. What happens when I try to overwrite an existing key a with boolean value, the entire key will be removed. A workaround is putting booleans in quotes, but that—of course—will only work as long as you don't have to differentiate between true and "true".
