> Loads package.json into webpack app as an environment variable



  

    

  



## Getting Started

### Installation

```bash

npm i -D pkg.json-webpack-plugin

# or

yarn add --dev pkg.json-webpack-plugin

```

### Usage

```js

const PackageJsonPlugin = require('pkg.json-webpack-plugin');

module.exports = {

  // ...webpack config

  plugins: [new PackageJsonPlugin()],

};

```

```js

console.log(process.env.pkgJson.version); // > 1.0.0

```

the plugin uses [EnvironmentPlugin](https://webpack.js.org/plugins/environment-plugin/) under the hood to load the values, refer the docs to know how it works

## Options

the default options are

```js

new PackageJsonPlugin({

  key: 'pkgJson',

  normalize: true,

  rootDir: process.cwd(),

  include: [],

});

```

- key [`string`] - name of key to which package.json values are mapped to

- normalize [`boolen`] - [normalize](https://github.com/npm/normalize-package-data#what-normalization-currently-entails) and load package.json

- rootDir [`string`] - directory to look for a package.json file. By default the process is expected be be run from the root direcotry where package.json exists.

- include [`array`] - values only to keep from a package.json file. Empty array or any [falsy](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Glossary/Falsy) values will load all values
