pathbuilder-gulp

A small library to generate gulp paths from a json object

Setup

This library is distributed with npm

Usage

You need to give a correctly formated array of path parts and extensions and an optional config object.

array of path parts and extension

{
  parts:[
    {...},
    ...
  ],
  extension:''
    or
  extension:['',...]
}

parts

the part object can be of three types path, link and glob

path

a path object copies the value of part.value in the path.

{
  type:'path',
  value:'this is the value to add'
}

link

a link copies the key from the config object corresponding to part.value, it accepts '.' and 'i' values

{
  type:'link',
  value:'someKey.subKey[0]'
}

glob

a glob adds a glob to the path, you can choose from a recursive or a file glob with the part.subFolders boolean value;

{
  type:'glob',
  subFolders: true or false
}

extensions

you can give one or more extensions to add to the path

extension string

if you give a string a single extension will be added to the path it auto-places a point if it is missing

extension array

if you give an array a correctly formated vinyl multi extension object will be created, the points ara automatically removed when needed.

config object

This object should be passed when you use a part of the link type
