| |
| <p>This will ask you a bunch of questions, and then write a package.json for you.</p> |
| |
| <p>It attempts to make reasonable guesses about what you want things to be set to, |
| and then writes a package.json file with the options you've selected.</p> |
| |
| <p>If you already have a package.json file, it'll read that first, and default to |
| the options in there.</p> |
| |
| <p>It is strictly additive, so it does not delete options from your package.json |
| without a really good reason to do so.</p> |
| |
| <p>Since this function expects to be run on the command-line, it doesn't work very |
| well as a programmatically. The best option is to roll your own, and since |
| JavaScript makes it stupid simple to output formatted JSON, that is the |
| preferred method. If you're sure you want to handle command-line prompting, |
| then go ahead and use this programmatically.</p> |
