YAML support for browserify and node.js

Yamlify!

// server.js

var browserify = require('browserify');
var yamlify = require('yamlify');

b = browserify();
b.add('./client.js');
b.transform(yamlify);

Add ability to require YAML files in Node.js

// server.js

require('yamlify/register');

After that you can require yaml wherever you want:

// client.js or server.js

var constants = require('./constants.yaml');

YAML files inclusions

This plugin also adds an ability to include yaml files into each other.

Lets say you want to keep some data in a partial file:

# _films.yaml

- &terminator
  name: Terminator 2 
  year: 1991
- name: Avatar
  year: 2009

You can include a whole .yaml file into another one like this:

# director.yaml

name: James Cameron 
films: !include ./_films 

You can also include a particular anchor from the specified file:

# me.yaml

name: John Smith
favouriteFilm: !include ./_films *terminator

yamlify's Issues

Unexpected token

I'm having trouble using this transform in a watchify setup.

SyntaxError: Unexpected token (1:6) while parsing file: /src/process/processes.yaml

TypeError: require.extensions is not an object

I get this error when using the library in conjunction with browserify through gulp.

I am setting the transforms, aswell as including the library in my gulpfile and including the helper in the only file that tried to load yaml.
