Make a pure merge

[thomaspons]

Hello,

The doc says :

"This plugin will collect all the json files provided to it, parse them, put them in a dictionary where the keys of that dictionary are the filenames."

It's pretty cool but what do you think to add an option to make pure merge. Like this for example :

file1.json

{
    ENV: {
        name: 'john'
    }
}

file2.json

{
    ENV: {
        email : '[email protected]'
    }
}

generated.json

{
    ENV: {
        name: 'john',
        email : '[email protected]'
    }
}

What do you think about it ?

It's a nice idea, but not what the plugin was originally for. I made it to combine a few localization json files into one. But if you find this useful, I am always open to pull requests :)

I was just about to leave the same comment. I'm switching from grunt to gulp and this seems to be the closest thing I could find to what I was getting with grunt-merge-json.

Maybe this can be done in the optional function? I can't figure out how make do it though. No examples on it and it's requiring some kind of stream back. Sorry if I'm a newbie.

Any advice on how to merge JSON files with Gulp would be greatly appreciated. If you wanted to add this functionality to this utility or show how to create and return my own JSON with the optional function parameter then that will work too.

Thanks,
Bob
