grunt-patcher v1.0.0

grunt-patch

Grunt Patch is a grunt plugin which can be used to patch files using grunt.

Getting Started

This is a fork based on https://github.com/nettantra/grunt-patch. Main reason is to have current dependencies.

This plugin requires Grunt ^1 and node >=4

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-patcher --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-patch');

Breaking changes to `runt-patch'

• Option for patch to be a string removed. Patch must be a patch-file's name now.

The "patch" task

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig({
  patch: {
    myPatchTask: {
      options: {
        patch: 'test/fixtures/default.patch'
      },
      files: {
        'tmp/output.default.patched': 'test/fixtures/input.default'
      }
    }
  },
});

Options

options.patch

Type: String Default value: false

This is a string value which must be the path of a patch file. This is a required option.

Usage Examples

Default Options

In this example, the default options are used to patch an input file named input.default with default.patch to output a patched file named output.default.patched.

grunt.initConfig({
  patch: {
    options: {
      patch: 'test/fixtures/default.patch'
    },
    files: {
      'tmp/output.default.patched': 'test/fixtures/input.default'
    }
  },
});

Contributing

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.
