grunt-versioning

File versioning tool

How to use it in code?

// insert ##VERSION: in front of the css or js files import, not that you should use double 
// quote rather than single quote
 <link href="##VERSION:/css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" >

grunt.loadNpmTasks("grunt-versioning");
grunt.config("versioning", {
        options: {
            //base directory for dust & plugin
            base: ".build",
            //base directory for js and css
            assetBase: ".build/static",
            //generate versioning comparation file
            debug: true //default value is false
        },
        dust: {
            src: ["templates/skins/**/*.dust", "templates/skins/**/*.html"]
        },
        plugin: {
            src: ["static/plugin/**/*.html"]
        }
    });

Environment related stuff

If you register the task name as "build" , it will generate versioned files and patch versioning numbers to files

//prod or production or staging, any name you like
grunt.registerTask('prod', ['clean', 'jshint', 'copy', 'browserify', 'versioning']);

Else, versioning tool will remove the ##VERSIONING tag

// dev or development or watch
grunt.registerTask('dev', ['clean', 'jshint', 'copy', 'browserify', 'versioning']);
