grunt-handlebars-min v0.3.0

grunt-handlebars-min

A grunt task for minifying and removing whitespace from Handlebars templates.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

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-handlebars-min --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks("grunt-handlebars-min");

Handlebarsmin Task

Run this task with the grunt handlebarsmin command.

Usage

Use the grunt-handlebarsmin task by specifying a target source and a target destination and a destination extension.

Minify individual files

"handlebarsmin": {
    dist: {
        files: {
            "./min/div.handlebars": "./templates/div.handlebars",
            "./min/table.handlebars": "./templates/table.template"
        }
    }
}

Minify all files in a directory

"handlebarsmin": {
    dist: {
        src: "./templates/handlebars/*.handlebars",
        dest: "./templates/min/",
        expand: true,
        ext: ".handlebars" // optional
    }
}

Documentation

The handlebars task is a multi task, meaning that it will implicitly iterate over all of its targets if no target is specified.
