init-grunt-config
This plugin helps you organize the configuration of you grunt tasks in separate file for each task.
Usage
Instead of defining everything inside grunt.initConfig
, you can do the following:
var load_configs = ; module { grunt; // Load your tasks here, for example with load-grunt-tasks plugin. // Specify a folder that holds all of your // task configuration files in the form taskname.js ; // ...};
The tasks folder:
|- Gruntfile.js
|- tasks
|-- clean.js
|-- copy.js
|-- ...
Example task configuration file:
// clean.js moduleexports = tmp_files: "./tmp/*" sass_files: "./styles/sass"
Voilà - the Gruntfile is now cleaner and more manageable, and each grunt plugin has its own separate file!
Types of configuration files
Each configuration file can be one of:
-
JSON file
-
JavaScript file that exports an object
moduleexports = value: true ; -
JavaScript file that exports a function
module {returnvalue: true;}
Tests
Each test is an example project with a Gruntfile testing only one specific feature. You can run it with:
tests/run
