grunt-concat-with-sourcemaps

Concatenate files and combine their source maps into one file

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.2

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-concat-with-sourcemaps --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-concat-with-sourcemaps');

The "concat_with_sourcemaps" task

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig({
  concat_with_sourcemaps: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      files: {
        'path-to-output/output.js': ['path-to-input/**/*.js']
        // Add as many files you like
      }
    }
  }
})

Merging source map files

If input file has source map linkage (e.g. //# sourceMappingURL=.*), grunt-concat-with-sourcemaps will parse the source map and create a new source map including those file.

Options

options.separator

Type: String Default value: grunt.util.linefeed

The value that will be used to separate lines when combining files.

options.sourceRoot

Type: String Default value: ''

Root for all relative URLs in the source map. (Optional)

options.includeSourcesContent

Type: Boolean Default value: false

If set to true, the content of the sources will be added to the source maps. This is used, if you don't want to upload your source files. (Optional)

Example

This example uses grunt-contrib-coffee and grunt-contrib-uglify.

grunt.initConfig({
  coffee: {
    task_name: {
      options: {
        sourceMap: true
      },
      expand: true,
      flatten: false,
      cwd: 'coffee',
      src: ['**/*.coffee'],
      dest: './src',
      ext: '.js'
    }
  },
  concat_with_sourcemaps: {
    task_name: {
      files: {
        'dist/output.js': ['src/*.js']
      }
    }
  },
  uglify: {
    task_name: {
      options: {
        sourceMap: true,
        sourceMapIn: 'dist/output.js.map'
      },
      files: {
        'dist/output.min.js': ['dist/output.js']
      }
    }
  }
})

The generated source map will refer to the original coffee script source files:

{
  "version": 3,
  "file": "output.min.js",
  "sources": [
    "src/file-1.coffee",
    "src/file-2.coffee"
  ],
  "names": [],
  "mappings": "..."
}
