Introduction

This is a collection of pipeline presets for gulp.

Quick Guide

You may get to know how to use this package by:

• either read some example codes below,
• or try a dummy project yourself to experient this package.

Example Codes

See the gulpfile.js included by this repository as an example. Below are some snippets of the said gulpfile.js.

To Create a Pipeline for Copying Some Files

const gulp3CommonPipelines = require('@wulechuan/gulp-3-common-pipeline-presets');
const buildAPipelineForCopyingSomeFiles = gulp3CommonPipelines.genericPipelines.copyFiles;

const frontEndTestSitePipelineForCopyingJavaTemplates = buildAPipelineForCopyingSomeFiles({
	taskNameKeyPart: 'Java Templates (*.vm)',
	sourceBasePath: javaOrDjangoPageTemplatesPath,
	globsToCopyRelativeToSoureBasePath: [ '**/*.vm' ],
	// globsToExclude: [],
	outputBasePathOfCopying: frontEndTestSiteHTMLPath,
});

To Create Multiple Pipelines for Concatenation of Some JavaScript Source Files

const gulp3CommonPipelines = require('@wulechuan/gulp-3-common-pipeline-presets');

const buildAJavascriptBuildingPipelineForOneAppOrOnePage = gulp3CommonPipelines.specificPipelines.js.concat;



const commonSettingsAcrossMultipleJavascriptPipelines = {
	sourceBasePath: 'source/javascript',
	outputBasePathOfBuilding: '../static/js',
	shouldCopyBuiltFileToElsewhere: true,
	outputBasePathOfCopying: 'build/test-site/',
};

const buildingCommonEntryGlobsRelativeToSourceBasePath = [
	joinPath('common', '/**/*.js'),
];

const allJavascriptBuildingPipelines = [
	buildAJavascriptBuildingPipelineForOneAppOrOnePage({
		...commonSettingsAcrossMultipleJavascriptPipelines,

		taskNameKeyPart:         'For a Fake Java Tempalte',
		builtSingleFileBaseName: 'page-a-java-served-web-page',
		buildingEntryGlobsRelativeToSourceBasePath: [
			...buildingCommonEntryGlobsRelativeToSourceBasePath,
			joinPath('page-a-java-page', '/**/*.js'),
		],
	}),
	buildAJavascriptBuildingPipelineForOneAppOrOnePage({
		...commonSettingsAcrossMultipleJavascriptPipelines,

		taskNameKeyPart:         'For a Fake Django Tempalte',
		builtSingleFileBaseName: 'page-a-django-page',
		buildingEntryGlobsRelativeToSourceBasePath: [
			...buildingCommonEntryGlobsRelativeToSourceBasePath,
			joinPath('page-a-django-page', '/**/*.js'),
		],
	}),
];

Try It out, See It in Action

An npm script entry of this repository has been setup to run a tryout project as a demostration. Thus people can try these presets right here inside this repository without difficulty, before they decide to use them elsewhere.

The said dummy project locates here:

<this repository root folder>/try-it-out/a-dummy-django-or-java-project

Before You Try

Before you can start trying, you first need to install all dependencies for this npm project.

This is a one time action, you don't need to do it every time before you run the tryout script.

Open a console/terminal and run:

npm install

or even simpler:

npm i

Run the Tryout Script

Open a console/terminal and run:

npm start

That's it.
