This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

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-xml2ddl --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-xml2ddl');

      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.

  },
});

grunt.initConfig({
  xml2ddl: {
    options: {},
    files: {
      'db/test.ddl': ['db/schema1.xml', 'db/schema2.xml']
    }
  }
});

Contributing

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
