gulp-dnx-tasks

A library that facilitates creating gulp tasks for asp.net dnx web apps.

There are generally two types of tasks that can be created using this:

• test: this will run all the test commands in all of your test projects with the option to watch files and re-run the tests for each project. (at the time of writing this, it is not possible to achieve this by dnx command line interface. See the issue here: aspnet/dnx#2148)
• web: this will run the web command for your web project with the option to watch files and re-start the command.

Usage

npm install gulp-dnx-tasks --save-dev

var gulp = require('gulp');
var dnx = require('gulp-dnx-tasks');
 
dnx.webTasks(gulp)
   .testTasks(gulp);

then you will have the following tasks defined:

$ gulp web
$ gulp web-watch
$ gulp test
$ gulp test-watch

API

.webTasks(< gulp >, < options >);

options:

• cmd (defaults to web): dnx command to start the web server
• base (defaults to the only project with web command): relative path to the web project root. e.g. ./src/my-web-app
• watch (defaults to ['./src/**/*.cs']): files to watch on a watch task.
  Note: You can use {project} in the path to refer to the root of the web project.

.testTasks(< gulp >, < options >);

options:

• cmd (defaults to test): dnx command to run tests
• watch (defaults tp ['{project}/**/*.cs']): files to watch on a watch task.
  Note: You can use {project} in the path to refer to the root of the web project.
