gulp-common-build-tasks

NPM Version Download Month

You can found in this library some utilities and tasks that can be shared between multiple gulp's build processes.

Install

npm install gulp-common-build-tasks

Usage

var common = require('gulp-common-build-tasks');

common.tasks

This is a wrapper over gulp that gives more functionnalities to it.

Tasks group

var common = require('gulp-common-build-tasks');

var tasks = common.tasks();

module.exports = tasks;

Namespaced tasks group

Namespaced tasks groups will prefix every subtasks under this namespace.

Example: A task named .test under the namespace application will create a gulp task named namespace.test.

When a group is created

var common = require('gulp-common-build-tasks');

var tasks = common.tasks('namespace');

module.exports = tasks;

Later

tasks.setNamespace('namespace');

Task

tasks.create(taskName, dependencies?, gulpFunction?)

tasks.create('.aTask', ['.anotherTask'], function(gulp, config) {
    [...]
});

Task name

If a task name is prefixed with a dot ., like .aTask, it will create a relative task name based on the namespace.

If the dot . is not present, it will be considered as a root task name.

This is also real when working with dependencies.

Import a tasks group

tasks.import(require('./anotherTasks'));

Conditionally apply a dependency or an import

If you wrap the dependency name or the require() with a function you can create tasks based on the result of this function.

Dependencies

function someFeatureEnabled(taskName) {
    return function(config) {
        return config.isSomeFeatureEnabled ? taskName : false;
    };
}
 
tasks.create('.aTask', [someFeatureEnabled('.anotherTask')]);

Import

function someFeatureEnabled(importedTasks) {
    return function(config) {
        return config.isSomeFeatureEnabled ? importedTasks : false;
    };
}
 
tasks.import(someFeatureEnabled(require('.anotherTask')));

common.scripts

A tasks group that provide two gulp task:

  • .jshint
  • .jscs

So you just need to import it in your tasks group with tasks.import(common.scripts).

common.config

An utility that fills a config with default values like:

  • projectDirectory: Finds the current project directory if not already defined
  • jshintEnabled: Checks if the project has a .jshintrc file.
  • jscsEnabled: Checks if the project has a .jscsrc file.
