Have you ever written Node.js code that counts on the implementation specific
Object behavior that mantains the insertion order of properties?
It could be useful in configuration, for example, to specify fallbacks if the
first choice isn't available.
var conf = { database: { pg: "psql://localhost/database"
, mysql: "mysql://localhost/database" } };
for (var type in conf.database) {
try {
useDatabase(require(type), conf.database[type]);
} catch (e) {
if (e.code != 'MODULE_NOT_FOUND') throw e;
}
}
Great idea or *Greatest* idea?
