> Plugin for adding a `pkg` method that exposes pkg-store to your base application.

Please consider following this project's author, [Jon Schlinkert](https://github.com/jonschlinkert), and consider starring the project to show your :heart: and support.

## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```sh
$ npm install --save base-pkg
```

## Usage

```js
var pkg = require('base-pkg');
var Base = require('base');
var app = new Base();

app.use(pkg());

console.log(app.pkg.data);
//=> {"name": "my-project", ...}
```

## API

Visit [pkg-store](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/pkg-store) for additional API details and documentation.

### .pkg.set

```js
app.pkg.set(key, value);
```

Set property `key` with the given `value`.

**Example**

```js
// given {"name": "my-project"}
app.pkg.set('bin.foo', 'bar');

console.log(app.pkg.data);
//=> {"name": "my-project", "bin": {"foo": "bar"}}
```

### .pkg.save

Persist package.json to the file system at `app.pkg.path`.

```js
app.pkg.save();
```

### .pkg.get

```js
app.pkg.get(key);
```

Get property `key` from package.json.

**Example**

```js
// given {"name": "my-project"}
app.pkg.set('bin.foo', 'bar');

console.log(app.pkg.get('bin'));
//=> {"foo": "bar"}
```

### .pkg.has

```js
app.pkg.has(key);
```

Returns `true` if `package.json` has property `key`.

**Example**

```js
// given: {"name": "my-project"}
console.log(app.pkg.has('name'));
//=> true
console.log(app.pkg.has('zzzzzzz'));
//=> false
```

### .pkg.union

```js
app.pkg.union(key, val);
```

Create array `key`, or concatenate values to array `key`. Also uniquifies the array.

**Example**

```js
app.pkg.union('keywords', 'foo');
app.pkg.union('keywords', ['bar', 'baz']);

console.log(app.pkg.get('keywords'));
//=> ['foo', 'bar', 'baz']
```

## .pkg.expand

Creates a get/set API using [cache-base](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/cache-base), where the cache is populated with a shallow clone of `package.json` with values expanded by [expand-pkg](https://github.com/jonschlinkert/expand-pkg).

**Example**

```js
console.log(app.pkg.get('author'));
//=> 'Jon Schlinkert (https://github.com/jonschlinkert)'

var expanded = app.pkg.expand();
var author = expanded.get('author');
//=> {name: 'Jon Schlinkert', url: 'https://github.com/jonschlinkert'}
```
