grunt-closure-typechecker

Grunt multi-task for running closure-compiler for typechecking (non-Closure) javascript source

This task is useful for type-checking (function signatures, classes, structural types, etc.) under certain code organizations that Closure Compiler understands. Unfortunately, Closure Compiler does not understand the IIFE idiom, which is currently hamstringing use as a general javascript type checker. Please vote for these issues if you are interested in seeing Closure Compiler typechecking support working in browser-targeted source:

Getting Started

Install this grunt plugin next to your project's grunt.js gruntfile with npm install grunt-jasmine-runner or add it to your package.json:

"dependencies": {
    "grunt": "latest",
    "grunt-closure-typechecker": "latest",
...

Then add this line to your project's grunt.js gruntfile:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-closure-typechecker');

Config

  • closure_typechecker
    • config name
      • files: Grunt-expanded list of file patterns to analyze
      • report_exclude: Grunt-expanded list of file patterns to exclude from report (e.g. vendor and packaged files)
'closure_typechecker' : {
  app: {
    files: { src: ['app/js/**/*.js'] },
    report_exclude: ['app/js/vendor', 'app/js/release']
  }
}

Running

After successful configuration, you can run closure typechecking:

grunt closure_typechecker

Or define an alias in your grunt.js:

grunt.registerTask('typecheck', 'closure_typechecker');

Output:

Excluding from report: .*app/js/release.*
