Gulp

Using

You can use PLON Gulp in two ways:

  1. As NPM package - just copy gulpfile.js into your project directory and andjust configuration in it. We recommend this option.
  2. Or just copy file gulpfile.js and gulp/ directory into your project.

Installation

To be able of using PLON Gulp tasks install required npm packages:

$ npm install

Than you can generate dist files by entering:

$ gulp

or any other gulp command described bellow.

Commands

  • gulp sass - Compiles all SASS files from 'assets' and moves results to 'dist'.
  • gulp js - Uglifies and concatenates all JS files from 'assets' and moves results to 'dist'.
  • gulp images - Copies all images from 'assets' to 'dist'.
  • gulp fonts - Copies all fonts from 'assets' to 'dist'.
  • gulp watch - Enters watch mode. Monitors changes in JS, CSS, Images and Fonts assets.
  • gulp serve - Enters watch mode and starts simple server that serves same browser experience on different browsers through generated URL.

Environments

Gulp tasks can work in two modes:

  1. "development" mode creates unminified files with source maps added. You can use this mode by adding -D, --dev or --development switch in console, eg.: $ gulp js -D. This is default mode, so if you use $ gulp it means that you use "dev" mode.

  2. "production" mode creates minified files without source maps. You can use this mode by adding -P, --prod or --production switch in console, eg.: $ gulp js -P.

Adding new tasks

PLON Gulp allows you to add new task to existing structure. You can do that in two ways:

  1. By writing your task directly in gulpfile.js. There is gulp variable available.
  2. By creating custom task module the same way as they are created in gulp/tasks/ directory. This task could be loaded this way:
var plon = require('./node_modules/plon/gulp/index.js')(config);

// Second param is a location of directory that contains task module
plon.importTask('some-custom-task', '../../../gulp/tasks/');
