grunt-payload v0.1.1

grunt-payload

Make shorthand Payload module loader syntax minification-safe.

Converts payload(function(dependency) { } ) to payload(['dependency'], function(dependency) { } ).

Similar to ng-annotate, but for the Payload module loader instead of Angular.

If you're using arrow functions to wrap your modules, be sure to run grunt-payload after your transpilation step and before minification.

// This needs to be transpiled before running grunt-payload
payload($ => {
  $.doSomething();
});

Getting Started

This plugin was built on Grunt ~0.4.5

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-payload --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-payload');

The "payload" task

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig({
  payload: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    },
  },
});

Options

options.separator

Type: String Default value: '\n'

A string value that is added between concatenated files. Newline is a safe choice because it prevents your code from being added to a comment line.

Usage Examples

Default Options

Make your Payload modules minification safe and concatenate them all into one file:

grunt.initConfig({
  payload: {
    options: {},
    files: {
      'dist/minification-safe.js': ['src/app.js', 'src/folder/*.js'],
    },
  },
});

Custom Options

Make your Payload modules minification safe and write them to corresponding files in a new directory:

grunt.initConfig({
  payload: {
    options: {
      separator: ':',
    },
    files: [{
      expand: true,
      src: ['src/file.js', 'src/folder/*.js'],
      dest: 'dist',
      ext: '.js'
    }]
  },
});
