How to get default conf overrided by environment conf?

[jmeiss]

Hi guys!

I'm using replace and I really like it! It's an awesome package to generate my environment conf but I've found any way to get a default config file and a specific environment config file that will override default config file.

Ex:

config-default.json

{ foo: "bar", toto: "tata" }

config-dev.json

config-prod.json

{ foo: "prod-bar" }

should generate:

dev.json

{ foo: "bar", toto: "tata" }

prod.json

{ foo: "prod-bar", toto: "tata" }

Is there any way to do that?

Thanks for your help

You could try the following example:

var merge = require('merge');

grunt.initConfig({

  replace: {
    dev: {
      options: {
        patterns: [
          {
            json: merge(
              grunt.file.readJSON('./config/default.json'),
              grunt.file.readJSON('./config/dev.json')
            )
          }
        ]
      },
      files: [
        {expand: true, flatten: true, src: ['test/dev.json'], dest: 'tmp/'}
      ]
    },
    prod: {
      options: {
        patterns: [
          {
            json: merge(
              grunt.file.readJSON('./config/default.json'),
              grunt.file.readJSON('./config/prod.json')
            )
          }
        ]
      },
      files: [
        {expand: true, flatten: true, src: ['test/prod.json'], dest: 'tmp/'}
      ]
    }
  }

});
