grunt-swig-compile

precompile swig templates

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-swig-compile --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-swig-compile');

The "swig_compile" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named swig_compile to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  swig_compile: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    },
  },
})

Options

options.wrap-start

Type: String Default value: 'var tpl = '

Template wrapper beginning

options.wrap-end

Type: String Default value: ';'

Template wrapper end

Usage Examples

Default Options

Use the default options to precompile templates ending with .swig

grunt.initConfig({
  swig_compile: {
    options: {},
    files: {
      'dest/compiled.js': ['**/*.swig'],
    },
  },
})

AMD

Use wrap-start and wrap-end to produce an AMD-compatible template.

grunt.initConfig({
  swig_compile: {
    options: {
      "wrap-start": "define(function () { return ",
      "wrap-end": "; });"
    },
    files: [{
      expand: true,
      cwd: 'js/',
      src: ['**/*.swig'],
      dest: 'build/',
      ext: '.js'
    }],
  },
})

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
