Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Grunt-Yoast-tasks

The plugin that contains all custom Yoast tasks

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ^1.0.4

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 i @yoast/grunt-plugin-tasks --save-dev

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

// Load Grunt configurations and tasks
loadGruntConfig( grunt, {
    configPath: path.join( process.cwd(), "node_modules/@yoast/grunt-plugin-tasks/config/" ),
    overridePath: path.join( process.cwd(), project.paths.config ),
    data: project,
    jitGrunt: {
        staticMappings: {
            addtextdomain: "grunt-wp-i18n",
            makepot: "grunt-wp-i18n",
            glotpress_download: "grunt-glotpress",
            "update-version": "@yoast/grunt-plugin-tasks",
            "set-version": "@yoast/grunt-plugin-tasks",
        },
    },
} );

You can override individual task configs by adding them to your plugin's local grunt config directory.

Tasks this adds

This adds the following tasks to your plugin's repo (see below for usage):

The addtextdomain task

See: cedaro/grunt-wp-i18n

Using our configuration

The textdomain value is read from the package.json: plugin.textdomain.
The files value is read from the Grunt configuration: files.php.

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig( {
    addtextdomain: {
        options: {
            textdomain: "",    // Project text domain.
            updateDomains: []  // List of text domains to replace.
        },
        target: {
            files: {}          // Files to target.
        }
    }
} );

Options

textdomain

Type: String
Default value: ''
Example value: 'plugin-or-theme-slug'

Defaults to the "Text Domain" header if it exists, otherwise uses the project directory name.

updateDomains

Type: Array|true
Default value: []
Example value: [ 'original-domain', 'vendor-domain' ]

A list of text domains to replace with the new text domain. Setting the value to true will update all text domains with the new text domain.

Usage Examples

Options may be specified at the task or target level, but are optional. Each target must define the files that should be processed. It's not necessary to declare a destination since the files will be updated in place.

grunt.initConfig( {
    addtextdomain: { 
        options: {
            textdomain: 'my-plugin-slug',
        },
        target: {
            files: {
                src: [
                    '*.php',
                    '**/*.php',
                    '!node_modules/**',
                    '!tests/**'
                ]
            }
        }
    }
} );

The checktextdomain task

See: stephenharris/grunt-checktextdomain

Using our configuration

The options.textdomain value is read from the package.json: plugin.textdomain.
The options.keywords is

[
    "__:1,2d",
    "_e:1,2d",
    "_x:1,2c,3d",
    "_ex:1,2c,3d",
    "_n:1,2,4d",
    "_nx:1,2,4c,5d",
    "_n_noop:1,2,3d",
    "_nx_noop:1,2,3c,4d",
    "esc_attr__:1,2d",
    "esc_html__:1,2d",
    "esc_attr_e:1,2d",
    "esc_html_e:1,2d",
    "esc_attr_x:1,2c,3d",
    "esc_html_x:1,2c,3d"
]

The files.src value is read from the Grunt configuration: files.php.
The files.expand is true.

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig( {
    checktextdomain: {
        options: {}, // Task-specific options.
        files: {}    // Files to target.
    }
} )

Options

text_domain

Type: String|Array

Must be provided. A text domain (or an array of text domains) indicating the domains to check against.

keywords

Type: Array

An array of keyword specifications to look for.

report_missing

Type: Bool
Default value: true

Whether to report use of keywords without a domain being passed.

report_variable_domain

Type: Bool
Default value: true

Whether to report use of keywords with a variable being used as the domain.

correct_domain

Type: Bool
Default value: false

Whether to automatically correct incorrect domains. Please note that this does not add in missing domains, and can only be used when one text domain is supplied. This will also correct instances where a variable, rather than string is used as a text doman, unless you set report_variable_domain to false.

create_report_file

Type: Bool
Default value: false

Create a hidden .[target].json file with reported errors.

force

Type: Bool
Default value: false

Set to true to report text domain errors but not fail the task.

Usage Examples

This is a typical set-up for WordPress development. The only thing specific to WordPress here is the keywords list.

checktextdomain: {
    options: {
        text_domain: "my-domain",
        keywords: [
            "__:1,2d",
            "_e:1,2d",
            "_x:1,2c,3d",
            "esc_html__:1,2d",
            "esc_html_e:1,2d",
            "esc_html_x:1,2c,3d",
            "esc_attr__:1,2d",
            "esc_attr_e:1,2d",
            "esc_attr_x:1,2c,3d",
            "_ex:1,2c,3d",
            "_n:1,2,4d",
            "_nx:1,2,4c,5d",
            "_n_noop:1,2,3d",
            "_nx_noop:1,2,3c,4d"
        ]
    },
    files: [
        {
            src: [ "**/*.php" ],
            expand: true
        }
    ]
}

The clean task

See: gruntjs/grunt-contrib-clean

Using our configuration

For our clean tasks we need some Grunt configuration entries: - paths.languages - paths.css - paths.js - files.artifact - files.artifactComposer

The textdomain value is read from the package.json: plugin.textdomain.

We add the following clean tasks:

  • language-files: Cleans the paths.languages path except the index.php file.
  • after-po-download: Cleans files in the paths.languages path with po or json extensions that start with the textdomain followed by -{anything}- and then formal, informal or ao90
    • The textdomain value is read from the package.json: plugin.textdomain.
    • Example filename that would get cleaned in the paths.languages: textdomain-pluginname-informal.json.
  • po-files: Cleans all the files in the paths.languages path with po and pot extensions.
  • build-assets-css: Cleans all the files in the paths.css path with css and map extensions.
  • build-assets-js: Cleans all the files in the paths.js path with min.js and map extensions.
  • artifact: Cleans all the files in the files.artifact path.
  • composer-artifact: Cleans all the files in the files.artifactComposer path.
  • composer-files: Cleans all the files in the files.artifactComposer /vendor path.

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig( {
    clean: {
        options: {},     // Global options.
        taskName: {      // The name of your task.
            options: {}, // Task-specific options.
            src: {},     // Files to target.
        }
    }
} )

Options

force

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Setting this to true allows the deletion of folders outside the current working dir (CWD). Use with caution.

no-write

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Will not actually delete any files or directories. If the task is run with the --verbose flag, the task will log messages of what files would have be deleted.

Note: As this task property contains a hyphen, you will need to surround it with quotes.

Usage Examples

There are three formats you can use to run this task.

Short
clean: [ "path/to/dir/one", "path/to/dir/two" ]
Medium (specific targets with global options)
clean: {
    build: [ "path/to/dir/one", "path/to/dir/two" ],
    release: [ "path/to/another/dir/one", "path/to/another/dir/two" ]
},
Long (specific targets with per target options)
clean: {
    build: {
        src: [ "path/to/dir/one", "path/to/dir/two" ]
    }
}

The compress task

See: gruntjs/grunt-contrib-compress

Using our configuration

We implement an artifact compress task:

  • The options.archive is set to artifact.zip.
  • The options.level is set to 9.
  • The files.cwd is set to artifact/.
  • The files.src is set to **.
  • The files.dest value is read from the Grunt configuration: pluginSlug.

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig( {
    compress: {
        taskName: {      // The name of your task.
            options: {}, // Task-specific options.
            files: [],   // Files to target.
        },
    }
} )

Options

archive

Type: String or Function
Modes: zip tar

This is used to define where to output the archive. Each target can only have one output file. If the type is a Function it must return a String.

This option is only appropriate for many-files-to-one compression modes like zip and tar. For gzip for example, please use grunt's standard src/dest specifications.

mode

Type: String

This is used to define which mode to use, currently supports gzip, deflate, deflateRaw, tar, tgz (tar gzip),zip and brotli.

Automatically detected per dest:src pair, but can be overridden per target if desired.

level

Type: Integer
Modes: zip gzip
Default: 1

Sets the level of archive compression.

brotli

Type: Object
Default:

{
    mode: 0,
    quality: 11,
    lgwin: 22,
    lgblock: 0
}

Configure brotli compression settings.

mode

Type: Integer

  • 0: generic mode
  • 1: text mode
  • 2: font mode

Default: 0

quality

Type: Integer
Default: 11

Controls the compression-speed vs compression-density tradeoffs. The higher the quality, the slower the compression. Range is 0 to 11.

lgwin

Type: Integer
Default: 22

Base 2 logarithm of the sliding window size. Range is 10 to 24.

lgblock

Type: Integer
Default: 0

Base 2 logarithm of the maximum input block size. Range is 16 to 24. If set to 0, the value will be set based on the quality.

pretty

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Pretty print file sizes when logging.

createEmptyArchive

Type: Boolean
Default: true

This can be used when you don't want to get an empty archive as a result, if there are no files at the specified paths.

It may be useful, if you don't clearly know if files exist and you don't need an empty archive as a result.

File Data

The following additional keys may be passed as part of a dest:src pair when using an Archiver-backed format. All keys can be defined as a Function that receives the file name and returns in the type specified below.

date

Type: Date
Modes: zip tar tgz

Sets the file date.

mode

Type: Integer
Modes: zip tar tgz

Sets the file permissions.

store

Type: Boolean
Default: false

If true, file contents will be archived without compression.

comment

Type: String
Modes: zip

Sets the file comment.

gid

Type: Integer
Modes: tar tgz

Sets the group of the file in the archive.

uid

Type: Integer
Modes: tar tgz

Sets the user of the file in the archive.

Usage Examples

compress: {
    main: {
        options: {
            archive: "archive.zip"
        },
        files: [
            // Includes files in path.
            { src: [ "path/*" ], dest: "internal_folder/", filter: "isFile" },
            // Includes files in path and its subdirs.
            { src: [ "path/**" ], dest: "internal_folder2/" },
            // Makes all src relative to cwd.
            { expand: true, cwd: "path/", src: [ "**" ], dest: "internal_folder3/" },
            // Flattens results to a single level.
            { flatten: true, src: [ "path/**" ], dest: "internal_folder4/", filter: "isFile" }
        ]
    }
}

    your_target: {}, // Target-specific file lists and/or options.
  },
} );

Options

domainPath

Type: String
Default value: languages

The folder where all downloaded files will be stored.

url

Type: String
Default value: false

file_format

Type: String
Default value: %domainPath%/%textdomain%-%wp_locale%.%format%

The structure how the file is being stored. Is based on previous settings but you could create your own format. For now only those four values and short locale can be used. You could however save the files in different folders if you move a placeholder.

formats

Type: Array
Default value: ['po','mo']

The file formats that will be downloaded for each translation set.

filter

Type: object
Default value: {translation_sets: false, minimum_percentage: 30, waiting_strings: false}

You can filter which files you want to have. By default it only checks the minimum percentage translation sets need to be translated. The other parameters still need to be implemented.

Usage Examples

Default Options

In this example, the default options are used to download all translations sets from a project.

grunt.initConfig( {
    glotpress_download: {
        core: {
            options: {
                domainPath: "languages",

There is an exception for the svgo plugin in order to keep a11y attributes for SVGs. It gets the following configuration:

{
	plugins: [
		{ removeTitle: true },
		{ removeDesc: true },
		{
			removeUnknownsAndDefaults: {
				keepRoleAttr: true,
				keepAriaAttrs: true,

                    "x-poedit-keywordslist": true // Include a list of all possible gettext functions.
                },                                // Headers to add to the generated POT file.
                processPot: null,                 // A callback function for manipulating the POT file.
                type: "wp-plugin",                // Type of project (wp-plugin or wp-theme).
                updateTimestamp: true,            // Whether the POT-Creation-Date should be updated without other changes.
                updatePoFiles: false              // Whether to update PO files in the same directory as the POT file.
            }
        }
    }
} );

Options

All options are optional, but at the very least a target needs to exist. At a minimum, set an option specifying the type of project.

grunt.initConfig( {
    makepot: {
        target: {
            options: {
                type: "wp-plugin"
            }
        }
    }
} );
cwd

Type: String
Default value: ''
Example value: 'release'

The directory that should be internationalized. Defaults to the project root, but can be set to a subdirectory, for instance, when used in a build process. Should be relative to the project root.

domainPath

Type: String
Default value: ''
Example value: '/languages'

The directory where the POT file should be saved. Defaults to the value from the "Domain Path" header if it exists.

exclude

Type: String
Default value: []
Example value: ['subdir/.*']

List of files or directories to ignore when generating the POT file. Note that the globbing pattern is a basic PHP regular expression.

include

Type: String
Default value: []
Example value: ['subdir/.*']

List of files or directories to include when generating the POT file. Note that the globbing pattern is a basic PHP regular expression

mainFile

Type: String
Default value: ''
Example value: 'plugin-slug.php' or 'style.css'

Name of the main project file where the headers can be found. In themes, this will default to style.css. An attempt will be made to auto-discover the main file for plugins, but specifying it here can improve performance and will help disambiguate between multiple plugin files in the same project.

potComments

Type: String
Example value: 'Custom Copyright (c) {{year}}'

Comment at the beginning of the POT file. Defaults to the copyright message generated by makepot.php. Use \n for newlines and {{year}} to insert the current year.

potFilename

Type: String
Default value: ''
Example value: 'plugin-or-theme-slug.pot'

Name of the POT file. Defaults to the "Text Domain" header if it exists, otherwise uses the project directory name.

potHeaders

Type: Object
Example value: { 'report-msgid-bugs-to': 'https://github.com/blazersix/grunt-wp-i18n/issues' }

List of headers to add to the POT file in the form of key-value pairs.

Adding a poedit property with a value of true will add the following commonly-used Poedit headers to ease setup for translators:

{
    "language": "en",
    "plural-forms": "nplurals=2; plural=(n != 1);",
    "x-poedit-country": "United States",
    "x-poedit-sourcecharset": "UTF-8",
    "x-poedit-keywordslist": "__;_e;__ngettext:1,2;_n:1,2;__ngettext_noop:1,2;_n_noop:1,2;_c;_nc:1,2;_x:1,2c;_ex:1,2c;_nx:4c,1,2;_nx_noop:4c,1,2;",
    "x-poedit-basepath": "../",
    "x-poedit-searchpath-0": ".",
    "x-poedit-bookmarks": "",
    "x-textdomain-support": "yes"
}

If custom values are used for the various Poedit headers, but you want to include WordPress gettext function calls, set the value of x-poedit-keywordslist to true and they will be included automatically.

processPot

Type: Function( pot, options )
Default value: null

A callback function for advanced manipulation of the POT file after it's generated.

type

Type: String
Default value: 'wp-plugin'
Example value: 'wp-plugin' or 'wp-theme'

The type of project.

updateTimestamp

Type: Boolean
Default value: true

Whether the POT-Creation-Date header should be updated if no other changes to the POT file are detected.

updatePoFiles

Type: Boolean
Default value: false

GNU gettext must be in your system path to use this option.

Whether to update the PO files that are present in the same directory as the POT file using the msgmerge program.

Usage Examples

Custom Working Directory (cwd)

If using with a custom build process, the following config would process strings in the /dist subdirectory and save the POT file to /dist/languages/plugin-slug.pot.

The report-msgid-bugs-to and language-team POT headers will also be replaced with custom values in the processPot callback.

grunt.initConfig( {
    makepot: {
        target: {
            options: {
                cwd: "dist"
                domainPath: "/languages",
                mainFile: "plugin-slug.php",
                potFilename: "plugin-slug.pot",
                processPot: function( pot, options ) {
                    pot.headers["report-msgid-bugs-to"] = "http://example.com/issues";
                    pot.headers["language-team"] = "Team Name <[email protected]>";
                    return pot;
                },
                type: "wp-plugin"
            }
        }
    }
} );

The postcss task

See: nDmitry/grunt-postcss

Using our configuration

We implement a build-default task:

  • The options.map value is read from the Grunt configuration: developmentBuild.
  • The options.processors value is set to:
[
    require( "autoprefixer" )(),
    require( "cssnano" )(),
]
  • The src value is read from the Grunt configuration: files.css.

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig( {
    postcss: {
        options: {}, // Task-specific options.
        dist: {
            src: ""  // Files to target.
        },
    },
} );

Options

processors

Type: Array
Default value: []

An array of PostCSS compatible post-processors.

map

Type: Boolean|Object
Default value: false

If the map option isn't defined or is set to false, PostCSS won't create or update sourcemaps.

If true is specified, PostCSS will try to locate a sourcemap from a previous compilation step using an annotation comment (e.g. from Sass) and create a new sourcemap based on the found one (or just create a new inlined sourcemap). The created sourcemap can be either a separate file or an inlined map depending on what the previous sourcemap was.

You can gain more control over sourcemap generation by assigning an object to the map option:

  • prev (string or false): a path to a directory where a previous sourcemap is (e.g. path/). By default, PostCSS will try to find a previous sourcemap using a path from the annotation comment (or using the annotation comment itself if the map is inlined). You can also set this option to false to delete the previous sourcemap.
  • inline (boolean): whether a sourcemap will be inlined or not. By default, it will be the same as a previous sourcemap or inlined.
  • annotation (boolean or string): by default, PostCSS will always add annotation comments with a path to a sourcemap file unless it is inlined or the input CSS does not have an annotation comment. PostCSS presumes that you want to save sourcemaps next to your output CSS files, but you can override this behavior and set a path to a directory as a string value for the option.
  • sourcesContent (boolean): whether original file contents (e.g. Sass sources) will be included to a sourcemap. By default, it's true unless a sourcemap from a previous compilation step has the original contents missing.
diff

Type: Boolean|String
Default value: false

Set it to true if you want to get a patch file:

options: {
  diff: true // Or 'custom/path/to/file.css.patch'.
}

You can also specify a path where you want the file to be saved.

failOnError

Type: Boolean
Default value: false

Set it to true if you want grunt to exit with an error on detecting a warning or error.

writeDest

Type: Boolean
Default value: true

Set it to false if you do not want the destination files to be written. This does not affect the processing of the map and diff options.

syntax, parser, stringifier

Options to control PostCSS custom syntaxes.

options: {
  parser: require( "postcss-safe-parser" ) // Instead of a removed `safe` option.
}
options: {
  syntax: require( "postcss-scss" ) // Work with SCSS directly.
}

Usage Examples

grunt.initConfig( {
    postcss: {
        options: {
            map: true, // Inline sourcemaps.
            map: {     // Or:
                inline: false,               // Save all sourcemaps as separate files...
                annotation: "dist/css/maps/" // ...to the specified directory
            },
            
            processors: [
                require( "pixrem" )(),                                        // Add fallbacks for rem units.
                require( "autoprefixer" )( { browsers: "last 2 versions" } ), // Add vendor prefixes.
                require( "cssnano" )()                                        // Minify the result.
            ]
        },
        dist: {
          src: "css/*.css"
        }
    }
} );

                        // For dashicons-arrow-right-alt2.
                    } else if ( value === '"\\f345"' ) {
                        value = '"\\f341"';
                    }
                    return { prop: prop, value: value };
                },
            },
        ],

Options

mangle

Type: Boolean Object
Default: {}

Turn on or off mangling with default options. If an Object is specified, it is passed directly to ast.mangle_names() and ast.compute_char_frequency() (mimicking command line behavior). View all options here.

compress

Type: Boolean Object
Default: {}

Turn on or off source compression with default options. If an Object is specified, it is passed as options to UglifyJS.Compressor(). View all options here.

beautify

Type: Boolean Object
Default: false

Turns on beautification of the generated source code. View all options here

parse.expression

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Parse a single expression, rather than a program (for parsing JSON)

report

Type: string
Choices: 'min', 'gzip'
Default: 'min'

Report minification result or both minification and gzip results. This is useful to see exactly how well uglify-js is performing but using 'gzip' will make the task take 5-10x longer to complete. Example output.

sourceMap

Type: Boolean
Default: false

If true, a source map file will be generated in the same directory as the dest file. By default it will have the same basename as the dest file, but with a .map extension.

sourceMapName

Type: String Function
Default: undefined

To customize the name or location of the generated source map, pass a string to indicate where to write the source map to. If a function is provided, the uglify destination is passed as the argument and the return value will be used as the file name.

sourceMapIn

Type: String Function
Default: undefined

The location of an input source map from an earlier compilation, e.g. from CoffeeScript. If a function is provided, the uglify source is passed as the argument and the return value will be used as the sourceMap name. This only makes sense when there's one source file.

sourceMap.includeSources

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Pass this flag if you want to include the content of source files in the source map as sourcesContent property.

sourceMap.root

Type: String
Default: undefined

With this option you can customize root URL that browser will use when looking for sources.

If the sources are not absolute URLs after prepending of the sourceMap.root, the sources are resolved relative to the source map.

sourceMap.url

Type: String
Default: undefined

Override the calculated value for sourceMappingURL in the source map. This is useful if the source map location is not relative to the base path of the minified file, i.e. when using a CDN

wrap

Type: String
Default: undefined

Wrap all of the code in a closure, an easy way to make sure nothing is leaking. For variables that need to be public exports and global variables are made available. The value of wrap is the global variable exports will be available as.

output.ascii_only

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Enables to encode non-ASCII characters as \uXXXX.

output.comments

Type: Boolean String Function
Default: undefined
Options: false 'all' 'some'

Turn on preservation of comments.

  • false will strip all comments
  • 'all' will preserve all comments in code blocks that have not been squashed or dropped
  • 'some' will preserve all comments that include a closure compiler style directive (@preserve @license @cc_on)
  • Function specify your own comment preservation function. You will be passed the current node and the current comment and are expected to return either true or false
  • RegExp '/[RegExp]/' will preserve comments matching given RegExp or stringified RegExp
banner

Type: String
Default: ''

This string will be prepended to the minified output. Template strings (e.g. <%= config.value %>) will be expanded automatically.

footer

Type: String
Default: ''

This string will be appended to the minified output. Template strings (e.g. <%= config.value %>) will be expanded automatically.

ie8

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Set this to true if you still care about full compliance with Internet Explorer 6-8 quirks.

mangle.properties

Type: Boolean Object
Default: false

Turn on or off property mangling with default options. If an Object is specified, it is passed directly to ast.mangle_properties() (mimicking command line behavior). View all options here.

reserveDOMProperties

Type: Boolean
Default: false

Use this flag in conjunction with mangle.properties to prevent built-in browser object properties from being mangled.

exceptionsFiles

Type: Array
Default: []

Use this with mangle.properties to pass one or more JSON files containing a list of variables and object properties that should not be mangled. See the UglifyJS docs for more info on the file syntax.

nameCache

Type: String
Default: ''

A string that is a path to a JSON cache file that uglify will create and use to coordinate symbol mangling between multiple runs of uglify. Note: this generated file uses the same JSON format as the exceptionsFiles files.

output.quote_style

Type: Integer
Default: 0

Preserve or enforce quotation mark style.

  • 0 will use single or double quotes such as to minimize the number of bytes (prefers double quotes when both will do)
  • 1 will always use single quotes
  • 2 will always use double quotes
  • 3 will preserve original quotation marks

Usage Examples

grunt.initConfig( {
    uglify: {
        my_target: {
            options: {
                sourceMap: true,
                sourceMapName: "path/to/sourcemap.map"
            },
            files: {
                "dest/output.min.js": [ "src/input.js" ]
            }
        }
    }

Overview

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

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

Options

version

Type: String
Default value: ''

The string value that will be the new version string.

regex

Type: String
Default value: ''

A regex string that is used to find the line to be updated in the file.

preVersionMatch

Type: String
Default value: ''

A prefix to the version string, for example a regex capture group.

postVersionMatch

Type: String
Default value: ''

A postfix to the version string, for example a regex capture group.

Usage Example

readme: {
    options: {
        version: "1.1",
        regEx: /(Stable tag: )(\d+(\.\d+){0,3})([^\n^\.\d]?.*?)(\n)/,
        preVersionMatch: "$1",
        postVersionMatch: "$5"
    },
    src: "tmp/README.md"
}

The watch task

See: gruntjs/grunt-contrib-watch

Using our configuration

We implement a plugin task:

  • The options.url value is read from the package.json: plugin.glotpress.
  • The options.domainPath value is read from the Grunt configuration: paths.languages.
  • The options.formats value is set to ['mo'].

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig( {
    watch: {
        options: {},    // Global options.
        your_target: {  // The name of your target.
            files: [],  // Files to target.
            tasks: [],  // Tasks to perform on the targets.
            options: {} // Target-specific file lists and/or options.
        },
    },
} );

Settings

There are a number of options available. Please review the minimatch options here. As well as some additional options as follows:

files

Type: String|Array

This defines what file patterns this task will watch. It can be a string or an array of files and/or minimatch patterns.

tasks

Type: String|Array

This defines which tasks to run when a watched file event occurs.

Options

spawn

Type: Boolean
Default: true

Whether to spawn task runs in a child process. Setting this option to false speeds up the reaction time of the watch (usually 500ms faster for most) and allows subsequent task runs to share the same context. Not spawning task runs can make the watch more prone to failing so please use as needed.

interrupt

Type: Boolean
Default: false

As files are modified this watch task will spawn tasks in child processes. The default behavior will only spawn a new child process per target when the previous process has finished. Set the interrupt option to true to terminate the previous process and spawn a new one upon later changes.

debounceDelay

Type: Integer
Default: 500

How long to wait before emitting events in succession for the same filepath and status. For example if your Gruntfile.js file was changed, a changed event will only fire again after the given milliseconds.

interval

Type: Integer
Default: 100

The interval is passed to fs.watchFile. Since interval is only used by fs.watchFile and this watcher also uses fs.watch; it is recommended to ignore this option. Default is 100ms.

event

Type: String|Array
Default: 'all'

Specify the type of watch events that triggers the specified task. This option can be one or many of: 'all', 'changed', 'added' and 'deleted'.

reload

Type: Boolean
Default: false

By default, if Gruntfile.js is being watched, then changes to it will trigger the watch task to restart, and reload the Gruntfile.js changes. When reload is set to true, changes to any of the watched files will trigger the watch task to restart. This is especially useful if your Gruntfile.js is dependent on other files.

forever

Type: Boolean
Default: true

This is only a task level option and cannot be configured per target. By default the watch task will duck punch grunt.fatal and grunt.warn to try and prevent them from exiting the watch process. If you don't want grunt.fatal and grunt.warn to be overridden set the forever option to false.

dateFormat

Type: Function

This is only a task level option and cannot be configured per target. By default when the watch has finished running tasks it will display the message Completed in 1.301s at Thu Jul 18 2013 14:58:21 GMT-0700 (PDT) - Waiting.... You can override this message by supplying your own function.

atBegin

Type: Boolean
Default: false

This option will trigger the run of each specified task at startup of the watcher.

livereload

Type: Boolean|Number|Object
Default: false

Set to true or set livereload: 1337 to a port number to enable live reloading. Default and recommended port is 35729.

If enabled a live reload server will be started with the watch task per target. Then after the indicated tasks have run, the live reload server will be triggered with the modified files.

See also how to enable livereload on your HTML.

Passing an object to livereload allows listening on a specific port and hostname/IP or over https connections (by specifying key and cert paths).

cwd

Type: String|Object
Default: process.cwd()

Ability to set the current working directory. Defaults to process.cwd(). Can either be a string to set the cwd to match files and spawn tasks or an object to set each independently.

To strip off a path before emitting events:

options: {
  cwd: {
    files: 'a/path',
    event: 'a/path'
  }
}

This will strip off a/path before emitting events. This option is useful for specifying the base directory to use with livereload.

livereloadOnError

Type: Boolean
Default: true

Option to prevent the livereload if the executed tasks encountered an error. If set to false, the livereload will only be triggered if all tasks completed successfully.

Usage Examples

watch: {
    css: {
        files: "**/*.sass",
        tasks: [ "sass" ],
        options: {
            livereload: true,
        },
    },
},
