Compile time `with` for strict mode JavaScript
[![build status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/ForbesLindesay/with.png)](http://travis-ci.org/ForbesLindesay/with)
[![Dependency Status](https://gemnasium.com/ForbesLindesay/with.png)](https://gemnasium.com/ForbesLindesay/with)
[![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/with.png)](http://badge.fury.io/js/with)
## Installation
$ npm install with
## Usage
```js
var addWith = require('with')
addWith('obj', 'console.log(a)')
// => "var a = obj.a;console.log(a)"
addWith("obj || {}", "console.log(helper(a))", ["helper"])
// => var locals = (obj || {}),a = locals.a;console.log(helper(a))
```
## API
### addWith(obj, src, [exclude], [environments])
The idea is that this is roughly equivallent to:
```js
with (obj) {
src
}
```
There are a few differences though. For starters, it will be assumed that all variables used in `src` come from `obj` so any that don't (e.g. template helpers) need to have their names parsed to `exclude` as an array. If you want to have browser globals available you can pass a collection of `environments`, e.g.
```js
addWith('obj', 'document.createElement(foo)', [], ['reservedVars', 'ecmaIdentifiers', 'nonstandard', 'browser'])
```
The default environment is: `['reservedVars', 'ecmaIdentifiers', 'nonstandard', 'node']`
It also makes everything be declared, so you can always do:
```js
if (foo === undefined)
```
instead of
```js
if (typeof foo === 'undefined')
```
It is also safe to use in strict mode (unlike `with`) and it minifies properly (`with` disables virtually all minification).
