Informations about the package gitignore-writer
Gitignore writer
This library can be used to programmatically add and remove items from a .gitignore file. Allthough it would work on any type of file that considers the prefix # an comment line.
Managing entries works based on a section name, this way you can manage multiple sections separately. It is also used to find the section when adjusting it.
Usage
The output in the .gitignore file will look like this:
Leave the comments around the entries, as those are used to find the section again when you need to update it again.
Common questions answered
- When the file does not exist, it will be created.
- When a section does not exist, it will be appended to the end of the file.
- When a section is removed or when the last item is removed from a section, the entire section will be removed from the file.
- When updating a section, but it would result in nothing changing, the file will not be touched.
- Duplicate entries will be removed inside the section.
- Entries outside the section are ignored and not touched.
- Entries will be sorted alphabetically.
- Entries are added as-is.
Newlines
Don't use newlines in entries, they will not be considered when writing the file, but will when reading the file.
