The What

This is a plugin for Grunt that allows you to rescursivly include other files into your output by using build_include statements.

Can be a simple include that replaces build_include statement with with the contents of a file.

This plugin is a grunt implementation of the build_include package.

Example:

// BUILD_INCLUDE("./scratch/mysnippet.js")

Can be a more complex replacement that applies formating using Options

Example:

var getStyleCss = function () {
  var css = '// BUILD_INCLUDE("./scratch/style.min.css")[asjsstring,breakString?width=80]';
  return css;
};

See Example: Asjsstring Include Text In Javascript String

Getting started

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-build-include --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-build-include');

This plugin was designed to work with Grunt 0.4.x. If you're still using grunt v0.3.x it's strongly recommended to upgrade.
