Targeting

Pass a URL argument indicating a directory/collection on a WebDAV server. Include any HTTP Basic authentication inline. HTTPS authentication must go in the options argument.

URL as String

var webdav = require( 'gulp-webdav-sync' )

// put index.js to http://localhost:8000/js/index.js
gulp.task( 'deploy', function () {
  return gulp.src( 'index.js' )
    .pipe( webdav( 'http://localhost:8000/js/' ) )
} )

URL as Object

Extend a URL object.

var webdav = require( 'gulp-webdav-sync' )

// put index.js to http://localhost:8000/js/index.js
// show status codes
// show credentials in urls
gulp.task( 'deploy', function () {
  var options = {
      protocol: 'http:'
    , auth: 'user:pass'
    , hostname: 'localhost'
    , port: 8000
    , pathname: '/js/'
    , log: 'info'
    , logAuth: true
  }
  return gulp.src( 'index.js' )
    .pipe( webdav( options ) )
} )

Subdirectories

Suppose the following directory tree,

• project/
  • dist/
    • css/
    • images/
    • js/

and this target,

• localhost:8000/
  • css/
  • images/
  • js/

use the 'base' option to constrain the localpath mapping,

var webdav = require( 'gulp-webdav-sync' )

gulp.task( 'deploy', function () {
  var options = {
      'base': 'dist'
    , 'log': 'info'
    , 'port': 8000
  }
  return gulp.src( 'dist/**' )
    .pipe( webdav( options ) )
} )

otherwise, the result is this.

• localhost:8000/
  • dist/
    • css/
    • images/
    • js/

Continuous Deploying: Creates, Updates, Deletes

By combining methods, most cases can be satisfied, however deleting directories may be inconsistent. If any file changes or there is a creation in the path, then gulp.watch will re-stream all files. The uselastmodified option ( default ) compares the local time to the server time so as to only upload updates. Deletes emit a different object; not in the stream, but with a change event.

With gulp.watch

browser-sync, npmconf, and .npmrc for a save-sync-reload solution.

npm set dav http://user:pass@localhost:8000/js/

var browserSync = require( 'browser-sync' ).create()
var webdav = require( 'gulp-webdav-sync' )
var npmconf = require( 'npmconf' )
var paths = {
  'js': [ '*.js', '!gulpfile.js' ]
}
var href
var options = {
  'log': 'info'
}

gulp.task( 'default', [ 'deploy' ], function () {
  browserSync.init( { proxy: href } )
  gulp.watch( paths.js, [ 'deploy' ] )
    .on( 'change', webdav( href, options ).watch )
    .on( 'change', browserSync.reload )
} )

gulp.task( 'deploy', [ 'load-npmrc' ], function () {
  return gulp.src( paths.js )
    .pipe( webdav( href, options ) )
} )

gulp.task( 'load-npmrc', function ( cb ) {
  npmconf.load( null, function() {
    if ( npmconf.loaded.sources.user ) {
      href = npmconf.loaded.sources.user.data.dav
    }
    cb()
  } )
} )

With gulp-watch

gulp-watch uses a different strategy of extending the file objects in stream. It re-emits created, modified, and deleted files. Delete/'unlink' type events are attempted on the server as well.

var watch = require( 'gulp-watch' )
var webdav = require( 'gulp-webdav-sync' )
var paths = {
  'js': [ '*.js', '!gulpfile.js' ]
}
var href = 'http://localhost'

gulp.task( 'deploy', function () {
  return gulp.src( paths.js )
    .pipe( watch( paths.js ) )
    .pipe( webdav( href ) )
} )

API

webdav( href )

Target is a URL-type parameter whereto files are uploaded. It must specify a directory ( also known as a "collection" ). At a minimum this must be DAV root, but subdirectories may be included ( e.g. project name ). Part-wise definition across multiple arguments is undefined. Use the http: or https: scheme, not dav:.

webdav( href ).clean( cb )

Deletes all resources under href.

webdav( href ).watch( event , cb )

Callback adapter for 'change' events from gulp.watch. Only handles type: 'deleted' events. gulp.src does not push deleted files; use this or gulp-watch instead. Calls back regardless of event.type.

cb

Optional, asynchronous, callback function.

Type: Function Default: undefined

event

glob-watcher event.

{
    type: 'deleted'
  , path: '/absolute/path.ext'
}

Type: Object Default: undefined

href

Type: String Default: undefined

options

Superset of http.request options parameter, https.request options parameter, and url.object. If any URL properties are defined, then protocol, hostname, and pathname are assigned to http://localhost/. If options.agent is undefined, then a https agent will be created for the stream.

Type: Object Default:

{
    'clean': false
  , 'headers': { 'User-Agent': PLUGIN_NAME + '/' + VERSION }
  , 'log': 'error'
  , 'logAuth': false
  , 'base': process.cwd()
  , 'uselastmodified': 1000
}

options.base

Relative or absolute path which halves the source path vinyl.path for appending the subsequent to the DAV target URI. Use with glob ** to prevent super-directories from being created on the target. e.g. gulp.src( 'dist/**' ).

Type: String Default: process.cwd()

options.clean

Deletes corresponding resources on server instead of uploading. Note, glob star-star will delete directories before contents are pushed.

Type: Boolean Default: false

options.log

Logging threshold. Orthogonal to the console methods.

Type: String Default: 'error'

options.logAuth

Display credentials in logged URLs.

Type: Boolean Default: false

options.uselastmodified

Compare remote getlastmodified versus local ( changed ) ctime. Only PUT if ctime is newer than getlastmodified. Numeric value in milliseconds is the tolerance interval for qualifying client-server synchronization. Set to false to disable.

Type: Number Default: 1000 ms
