@ideasonpurpose/gulp-task-zip v0.1.1

Gulp Task: Zip

Create a pre-configured Gulp 4 task which zips a directory.

Installation

$ yarn add @ideasonpurpose/gulp-task-zip

  or

$ npm install @ideasonpurpose/gulp-task-zip

Usage

Call the create method directly on the import. In most cases, just trust the defaults and go:

// Call `create` on the require to initialize a new task
const zip = require("@ideasonpurpose/gulp-task-zip").create();

// Export to make the task publicly callable
exports.zip = zip;

Or configure the task:

// Set the archive name and change the output location
const zip = require("@ideasonpurpose/gulp-task-zip").create({
  dest: "build-snapshots",
  outFile: {
    baseName: "archive",
    gitHash: false
  }
});

// output file will be something like `build-snapshots/archive-1.0.4.zip`

API

gulpTaskZip.create(options)

The create method accepts one configuration object with the following properties:

src

Type: String or Array
Default: dest/**/*

A glob string or array of glob-strings. Passed directly to gulp.src

srcOptions

Type: Object
Default: { cwd: "dist", nodir: true }

An object containing any options recognized by gulp.src. Passed directly to gulp.src

dest

Type: String
Default: "./build"

The output path. Passed directly to gulp.dest

outFile

Type: Object
Default: see below

This object configures the filename of the archive.

The filename of the generated archive is composed from the three outfile properties, baseName, version and gitHash, then passed through slugify. Components appear in order, for example:

// basename-version-gitHash.zip
project-name-1_0_3-222c740f3f.zip

outFile.baseName

Type: String
Default: value of process.env.npm_package_name

The first part of the output archive's filename.

outFile.version

Type: String
Default: value of process.env.npm_package_version

The current version from the project's package.json file. Appears second

outFile.gitHash

Type: Boolean
Default: value ofprocess.env.npm_package_version

outFile.slugify

Type: Boolean, String or Object
Default {lower: true}

Options for applying slugify to the output file name. Passed directly to slugify

outFile.noDots

Type: Boolean or String
Default: True (same as _)

Replaces all dots in the output filename. If true, dots are replaced with an underscore. If a String, then the string-value will be used as the replacement. Some decompression tools have issues with extra dots before the .zip extension.
