Dino, The most common plain-text format for this kind of thing in the npm community is JSON, which has native support via require() and via JSON.parse() / JSON.stringify(). It is used by node's/npm's package.json file.
But there are plenty of people who prefer YAML or other alternatives and plenty of libraries on npm to support reading/writing these formats. Aside: while it is a great personal exercise to build your own web framework, you won't find a lot of people in the node community jumping at the chance to try something inspired by Cisco or Oracle products. Node is pretty anti-"enterprisey" (see the tongue-in-cheek https://twitter.com/enterprisestack), preferring simpler, small-and-sharp solutions (following the unix philosophy<http://blog.izs.me/post/48281998870/unix-philosophy-and-node-js>). Node's trademark guardian (and one of its biggest, most active sponsors), Joyent, was founded/birthed in response to Oracle buying the Solaris OS and discontinued open development on it. -- peter -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
