grunt-conkitty v0.5.18

grunt-conkitty

Compile Conkitty Templates

Install:

npm install grunt-conkitty --save-dev

Enable:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-conkitty');

Use (you can omit some of settings):

conkitty: {
    compile: {
        src: ['template1.ctpl', 'template2.ctpl'],
        dest: {
            common: 'path/to/generated/common.js',
            templates: 'path/to/generated/templates.js',
            sourcemap: 'path/to/sourcemap/for/templates.js',
            deps: 'dir/to/copy/dependencies/to'
        }
    }
}

deps is a directory to copy declared in templates dependencies to. For example, let's assume we have two template files. File /path/to/file1.ctpl depends from /path/to/script.js and file /another/path/file2.ctpl depends from /another/path/style.css. If our settings look like:

{
    templates: '/build/path/templates.js',
    deps: '/build/path/deps/'
}

The resulting structure in /build/path will be:

/build/path
    /deps
        1_script.js
        1_script.js_
        2_style.css
        2_style.css_
    templates.js

The dependencies are properly ordered, the files ending with underscore sign (1_script.js_ and 2_style.css_ in our example) contain an absolute path to the source.

You can also save your dependencies as a JSON-file:

{
    templates: '/build/path/templates.js',
    deps: {
        dest: '/build/path/deps/', // Path to copy the files to, the same to the example above.
        file: '/build/path/deps.json' // Path to JSON-file.
    }
}

In addition to previous example result, this one will create deps.json with the following contents:

[
    "/path/to/script.js",
    "/path/to/style.css"
]

Exclude concat.js from the common

By default concat.js is built in the common. You can exclude concat.js from the common:

conkitty: {
    compile: {
        src: ['template1.ctpl', 'template2.ctpl'],
        dest: {
            common: {file: 'path/to/generated/common.js', 'concat.js': false},
            templates: 'path/to/generated/templates.js',
            sourcemap: 'path/to/sourcemap/for/templates.js',
            deps: 'dir/to/copy/dependencies/to'
        }
    }
}

Passing an environment object for precompile expressions

You can pass an environment object for precompile expressions:

conkitty: {
    compile: {
        src: ['template1.ctpl', 'template2.ctpl'],
        dest: {
            env: {prop1: 111, prop2: 'dark', prop3: true},
            common: 'path/to/generated/common.js',
            templates: 'path/to/generated/templates.js'
        }
    }
}
