Taskmodules NPM

taskmodules

NOT MAINTAINED

I recommend you to use something else, like Webpack or next.js
https://webpack.js.org/
https://nextjs.org/

Modular gulp or grunt tasks wrapped in a npm module because I wanted more flexibility when setting up the order of when tasks are called. What tasks need to be in series and what tasks can run parallel.

Install

npm install taskmodules

Usage

Since all modules are selfcontained you can pick those you need. You can combine gulp and grunt or your own node.js modules.

In your gulp/grunt file import taskmodules
var taskmodules = require('taskmodules');

Asyns setup

Taskmodules are great to use in a library like async. You can easily choose when tasks need to run in series of parallell.

gulp.task('default', function(done) {

	async.series([
    	taskmodules.utils.svgIconFont.create('assets/icons/', '_icon-font', 'src/scss/iconfont/', '_icon-font.scss', true, false),
        taskmodules.js.browserify.create('src/js/main.js', 'main.js', 'dist/js/', false, false),
	    taskmodules.style.sass.create('src/scss/main.scss', 'main.scss', 'dist/css/', false, false)
    ], function() {
	    console.log("SERIES COMPLETE");

    	async.parallel([
        	taskmodules.utils.svgIconFont.create('assets/icons/', '_icon-font', 'src/scss/iconfont/', '_icon-font.scss', true, false),
            taskmodules.js.browserify.create('src/js/main.js', 'main.js', 'dist/js/', false, false),
	        taskmodules.style.sass.create('src/scss/main.scss', 'main.scss', 'dist/css/', false, false)
    	], function() {
        	console.log("PARALLEL COMPLETE");
            done();
	    });
    });
});

js.browserify

Setup for use of browserify, my most common setup for js.

####Parameters sourceFile the main js file
outputFile name of the output file
outputPath path for the output
isAsync if the task is async, if true it will report itself as complete directly after execution.
production production flag, if true it will do stuff like minify and so on.

####Example

taskmodules.js.browserify.create('src/js/main.js', 'main.js', 'dist/js/', false, false)
