grunt-svn-checkout

Clone and Pull repos with Grunt

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt.

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-svn-checkout --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-svn-checkout');

The "svn_checkout" task

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig({
  svn_checkout: {
    set: {
      repos: [
        // array of object with relative path arrays and repo keys.
      ]
    },
  },
})

Now when running grunt svn_checkout the plugin will check all paths and see if there is an SVN repo in them. If so, it will run svn up on that repository. If it is not present, it will run svn checkout with the repository specified.

Usage Example

In this example, we're pulling two different SVN repos, both located in different places at https://svn.example.com/. The first repo we are checking out to relative/path/ and the second to another/path/.

grunt.initConfig({
  svn_checkout: {
    example: {
      repos: [
        {
          path: ['relative', 'path'], // relative/path/
          repo: 'https://svn.example.com/something/'
        },
        {
          path: ['another', 'path'] // another/path/
          repo: 'https://svn.example.com/something-else/'
        }
      ]
    },
  },
})
