I have a function that takes in input a config file; this config file is in fact an object, something like
file first.js
// first config file
const common = require(../common)
// function that returns random day,month,year
const { day, month, year } = time.getDate()
module.exports = {
...common,
dayToChoose: day,
monthToChoose: month,
yearToChoose: year,
[other data]
}
since I can have different versions of this config file, each of them named differently (second.js
, third.js
, etc. with different data each), I created a "basic" configuration common to all of those files.
common.js
is a config file that contains some data.
My question is: can common.js
contain something like
const { commonDay, commonMonth, commonYear } = time.getDate()
module.exports = {
dayToChoose: commonDay,
monthToChoose: commonMonth,
yearToChoose: commonYear
}
and put something in my first
config file that says "if day, month, and year already exists, take those data, otherwise take the data present in the first.js
file" ?
Something like
// first config file
const common = require(../common)
// function that returns random day,month,year
const { day, month, year } = time.getDate()
module.exports = {
...common,
dayToChoose: dayToChoose || day, // error: dayToChoose is not defined
monthToChoose: monthToChoose || month, // like above
yearToChoose: yearToChoose || year, // like above
[other data which varies]
}
