.SH "DESCRIPTION"
|
|
This will ask you a bunch of questions, and then write a package\.json for you\.
|
|
.
|
|
.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
|
|
If you already have a package\.json file, it\'ll read that first, and default to
|
|
the options in there\.
|
|
.
|
|
.P
|
|
It is strictly additive, so it does not delete options from your package\.json
|
|
without a really good reason to do so\.
|

|
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\.
