Changelog

4.0.0

Licensing improvement: updated parse-json from 3.0.0 to 4.0.0(see sindresorhus/parse-json#12).
Changed: error message format for JSON parse errors(see #101). If you were relying on the format of JSON-parsing error messages, this will be a breaking change for you.
Changed: set default for searchPath as process.cwd() in explorer.load.

3.1.0

Added: infer format based on filePath

3.0.1

Fixed: memory leak due to bug in require-from-string.
Added: for JSON files, append position to end of error message.

3.0.0

Removed: support for loading config path using the --config flag. cosmiconfig will not parse command line arguments. Your application can parse command line arguments and pass them to cosmiconfig.
Removed: argv config option.
Removed: support for Node versions < 4.
Added: sync option.
Fixed: Throw a clear error on getting empty config file.
Fixed: when a options.configPath is package.json, return the package prop, not the entire JSON file.

2.2.2

Fixed: options.configPath and --config flag are respected.
