grunt-bootloader

Setup your webproject in an instant

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-bootloader --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-bootloader');

OR if you are starting a fresh project you can skip basic setup, and simply run this command

$ bootloader create --name=myapp --port=8080

This will setup most of the basic configuration for bootloader project.

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

grunt.initConfig({
  bootloader: {
      options : {
        indexBundles : ["webmodules/bootloader","myproject/app"],
        src : "./",
        dest : "dest",
        resourcesJson : "resource.json"
      }
  },
});

Type: Array Default value: ["webmodules/bootloader"]

A list of bundles to be combined according to preference order of their being loaded on ui.

Type: String Default value: './'

Path to root of project.

Type: String Default value: 'dist'

path to where build files to be generated.

Type: String Default value: 'dist/resource.json'

path to resource file which will have all the static resources listed.

Type: Boolean Default value: false

if set to true resourceJson will be part of initial bundled file.

Type: Boolean Default value: false

if set to true modules will be sorted in alphabetically order.

Type: Boolean Default value: false

if set to true single order-line will be followed.

Type: Boolean Default value: false

if set to true one file per module.json is created.

Type: Number Default value: 8090

port where dev server will be running

In this example, the default options are used to do something with whatever. So if the testing file has the content Testing and the 123 file had the content 1 2 3, the generated result would be Testing, 1 2 3.

To make build for local development, Note: First time on machine this command wont work, so run bootloader:bundlify only first time.

  grunt.registerTask('scan', ['bootloader:scan:skip', 'sass:dist', 'cssmin']); 

To make production build. Note :- it must be run first time on machine before scan.

  grunt.registerTask('build', ['bootloader:bundlify', 'sass:dist', 'cssmin']);

$ bootloader scan //scan files => grunt cssmin bootloader:scan
$ bootloader build // creates build files ready to use on production server =>  gitinfo cssmin bootloader:bundlify
$ bootloader watch // starts watch server => grunt watch
$ bootloader check --jsb --css // check and optinally fixes js files and css files => grunt jshint jsbeautifier cssmin

  $ bl scan 
  $ bl build

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.
