grunt-browser-dependencies

Download js files from the web, name them what you want and where you want, keep browser dependencies inside package.json if you want.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

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-browser-dependencies --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-browser-dependencies');

grunt-js-template task

Run this task with the grunt browserDependencies command.

Example config

    browserDependencies: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json').browserDependencies,
