grunt-scriptIncluder

"inserts script references in to your files"

Example

Include the include tag in your file where you want the scripts to be included.

<head>
  <!-- [@include_scripts] -->
</head>

And they will be replaces with script references to all files defined in the config.

<head>
  <!-- Generated Script includes -->
  <script src='...'></script> 
  <script src='...'></script> 
  <script src='...'></script> 
  ...
  <!-- /Generated Script includes -->
</head>

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.2

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 plug-ins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-scriptincluder --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-scriptincluder');

The "scriptincluder" task

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig({
  scriptincluder: {
    task: {
      options: {
        prependedPath: "../",
      },
      dest: "public/index.html",
      src: [
        "src/app.js",
        "src/apps/**/*.js"
      ]
    }
  }
});

Options

options.prependedPath

Type: String Default value: ''

A string used to perpend to the included scripts src.

  options.prependedPath + filePath

options.replacePath

Type: String Default value: ''

Used to replace the path of the file.

  options.replacePath + fileName

Usage Examples

Default Options

In this example, the scripts defined under page1 will be included in the tasks dest file.

grunt.initConfig({
  scriptincluder: {
     page1: {
        options: {
          prependedPath: "../",
        },
        dest: "public/page1.html",
        src: [
          "src/app.js",
          "src/apps/**/*.js"
        ]
      }
      
  },
});

Linked refrences

You can link to other files defined in the grunt config, this is helpful if you already have defined script files in a other tasks configuration, e.g. the concat task.

grunt.initConfig({
  scriptincluder: {
   index: {
        options: {
          prependedPath: "../",
        },
        dest: "public/index.txt",
        src: [
          "<%= concat.someTarsk1.src %>",
          "<%= concat.someTarsk2.src %>",
          "<%= concat.someTarsk3.src %>"
        ]
      },
  }
});

Replaced path

You can link to other files defined in the grunt config, this is helpful if you already have defined script files in a other tasks configuration, e.g. the concat task.

grunt.initConfig({
  scriptincluder: {
   index: {
        options: {
          replacePath: "foobar/",
        },
        dest: "public/index.txt",
        src: [
          "js/file1.js",
          "js/file2.js",
          "js/file3.js",
        ]
      },
  }
});

output

  <script src='foobar/script1.js'></script> 
  <script src='foobar/script2.js'></script> 
  <script src='foobar/script3.js'></script> 
  <script src='foobar/script4.js'></script> 

Complete config

  scriptincluder: {
      page1: {
        options: {
          prependedPath: "../",
        },
        dest: "tmp/page1.html",
        src: [
          "tmp/scripts/page1/*.js"
        ]
      },
 
      page2: {
        dest: "tmp/page2.html",
        src: [
          "tmp/scripts/page2/*.js"
        ]
      },
 
      page3: {
        dest: "tmp/page3.html",
        src: [
          "<%= scriptincluder.page1.src %>",
          "<%= scriptincluder.page2.src %>"
        ]
      }
