# configstore [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/yeoman/configstore.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/yeoman/configstore)
> Easily load and persist config without having to think about where and how
Config is stored in a JSON file located in `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` or `~/.config`.<br>
Example: `~/.config/configstore/some-id.json`

*If you need this for Electron, check out [`electron-store`](https://github.com/sindresorhus/electron-store) instead.*

## Usage
```js
const Configstore = require('configstore');
const pkg = require('./package.json');
// create a Configstore instance with an unique ID e.g.
// Package name and optionally some default values
const conf = new Configstore(pkg.name, {foo: 'bar'});
console.log(conf.get('foo'));
//=> 'bar'
conf.set('awesome', true);
console.log(conf.get('awesome'));
//=> true
// Use dot-notation to access nested properties
conf.set('bar.baz', true);
console.log(conf.get('bar'));
//=> {baz: true}
conf.delete('awesome');
console.log(conf.get('awesome'));
//=> undefined
```
## API
### Configstore(packageName, [defaults], [options])
Returns a new instance.
#### packageName
Type: `string`
Name of your package.
#### defaults
Type: `Object`
Default config.
#### options
##### globalConfigPath
Type: `boolean`<br>
Default: `false`
Store the config at `$CONFIG/package-name/config.json` instead of the default `$CONFIG/configstore/package-name.json`. This is not recommended as you might end up conflicting with other tools, rendering the "without having to think" idea moot.
### Instance
You can use [dot-notation](https://github.com/sindresorhus/dot-prop) in a `key` to access nested properties.
### .set(key, value)
Set an item.
### .set(object)
Set multiple items at once.
### .get(key)
Get an item.
### .has(key)
Check if an item exists.
### .delete(key)
Delete an item.
### .clear()
Delete all items.
### .size
Get the item count.
### .path
Get the path to the config file. Can be used to show the user where the config file is located or even better open it for them.
### .all
Get all the config as an object or replace the current config with an object:
```js
conf.all = {
hello: 'world'
};
```
