> Map configuration objects to application methods.

## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```sh
$ npm i map-config --save
```

## Usage

```js
var MapConfig = require('map-config');
```

## API

### [MapConfig](index.js#L24)
Create a new instance of MapConfig with a specified map and application.

**Params**

* `app` **{Object}**: Object containing the methods that will be called based on the map specification.
* `map` **{Object}**: Optional object specifying how to map a configuration to an application.

**Example**

```js
var mapper = new MapConfig(app, map);
```

### [.map](index.js#L63)
Map properties to methods and/or functions.

**Params**

* `key` **{String}**: property key to map.
* `val` **{Function|Object}**: Optional function to call when a config has the given key. Functions will be passed `(val, key, config)` when called. Functions may also take a callback to indicate async usage. May also pass another instance of MapConfig to be processed.
* `returns` **{Object}** `this`: to enable chaining

**Example**

```js
mapper
.map('baz')
.map('bang', function(val, key, config) {
});
```

### [.alias](index.js#L122)
Create an `alias` for property `key`.

**Params**

* `alias` **{String}**: Alias to use for `key`.
* `key` **{String}**: Actual property or method on `app`.
* `returns` **{Object}**: Returns the instance for chaining.

**Example**

```js
mapper.alias('foo', 'bar');
```

### [.process](index.js#L143)
Process a configuration object with the already configured `map` and `app`.

**Params**

* `config` **{Object}**: Configuration object to map to application methods.
* `cb` **{Function}**: Optional callback function that will be called when finished or if an error occurs during processing.

**Example**

```js
mapper.process(config);
```

### [.addKey](index.js#L217)
Add a key to the `.keys` array. May also be used to add an array of namespaced keys to the `.keys` array. Useful for mapping "sub-configs" to a key in a parent config.

**Params**

* `key` **{String}**: key to push onto `.keys`
* `arr` **{Array}**: Array of sub keys to push onto `.keys`
* `returns` **{Object}** `this`: for chaining

**Example**

```js
mapper.addKey('foo');
console.log(mapper.keys);
//=> ['foo']

var one = new MapConfig();
var two = new MapConfig();
two.map('foo');
two.map('bar');
two.map('baz');

// map config `two` to config `one`
one.map('two', function(val, key, config, next) {
two.process(val, next);
});

// map keys from config `two` to config `one`
one.addKey('two', two.keys);
console.log(one.keys);
//=> ['two.foo', 'two.bar', 'two.baz']
```
