  "readme": "# node-pkginfo\n\nAn easy way to expose properties on a module from a package.json\n\n## Installation\n\n### Installing npm (node package manager)\n```\n  curl http://npmjs.org/install.sh | sh\n```\n\n### Installing pkginfo\n```\n  [sudo] npm install pkginfo\n```\n\n## Motivation\nHow often when writing node.js modules have you written the following line(s) of code? \n\n* Hard code your version string into your code\n\n``` js\n  exports.version = '0.1.0';\n```\n\n* Programmatically expose the version from the package.json\n\n``` js\n  exports.version = require('/path/to/package.json').version;\n```\n\nIn other words, how often have you wanted to expose basic information from your package.json onto your module programmatically? **WELL NOW YOU CAN!**\n\n## Usage\n\nUsing `pkginfo` is idiot-proof, just require and invoke it. \n\n``` js\n  var pkginfo = require('pkginfo')(module);\n  \n  console.dir(module.exports);\n```\n\nBy invoking the `pkginfo` module all of the properties in your `package.json` file will be automatically exposed on the callee module (i.e. the parent module of `pkginfo`). \n\nHere's a sample of the output:\n\n```\n  { name: 'simple-app',\n    description: 'A test fixture for pkginfo',\n    version: '0.1.0',\n    author: 'Charlie Robbins <charlie.robbins@gmail.com>',\n    keywords: [ 'test', 'fixture' ],\n    main: './index.js',\n    scripts: { test: 'vows test/*-test.js --spec' },\n    engines: { node: '>= 0.4.0' } }\n```\n\n### Expose specific properties\nIf you don't want to expose **all** properties on from your `package.json` on your module then simple pass those properties to the `pkginfo` function:\n\n``` js\n  var pkginfo = require('pkginfo')(module, 'version', 'author');\n  \n  console.dir(module.exports);\n```\n\n```\n  { version: '0.1.0',\n    author: 'Charlie Robbins <charlie.robbins@gmail.com>' }\n```\n\nIf you're looking for further usage see the [examples][0] included in this repository. \n\n## Run Tests\nTests are written in [vows][1] and give complete coverage of all APIs.\n\n```\n  vows test/*-test.js --spec\n```\n\n[0]: https://github.com/indexzero/node-pkginfo/tree/master/examples\n[1]: http://vowsjs.org\n\n#### Author: [Charlie Robbins](http://nodejitsu.com)\n#### License: MIT\n",
