grunt-branch-run

Run specific tasks only on a specific branch

Getting Started

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-branch-run --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-branch-run');

The "branch_run" task

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig({
  branch_run: {
    options:{
      master: ['foo', 'bar'],
      develop: ['bar']
    }
  },
});

Options

options.branch_name

Type: Array

Array with task names which should be run if that task is checked out.

options.branch_env_var

Type: String

Name of the ENV variable with the branch name. If you are using travis-ci or gitlab-ci it will automatically check TRAVIS_BRANCH or CI_BUILD_REF_NAME for the branch name. If you are using any other build system you have to specify the ENV variable name via the branch_env_var option.

Usage Examples

Run task test, build and deploy only if you are in the master branch Run task test and build for the develop branch Run task test for all the other branches.

grunt.initConfig({
  branch_run: {
    options:{
      master: ['test', 'build', 'deploy],
      develop: ['test', 'build'],
      '*': ['test']
    }
  },
});

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.
