BGTM - Engine for compiling a JavaScript file.

This is an engine which can be used in conjunction with BGTM for the purposes of processing a list of JavaScript files into a single bundled JS file.

How to use

Read the how to section for BGTM.

Run:

npm install --save-dev bgtm-engine-js

In your gulpfile add the following dependency:

var js = require('bgtm-engine-js');

Then add the following task.

tm.add('js', {
    runOnBuild: true,
    watch: true,
    watchSource: [
        'src/js/**/*'
    ],
    liveReload: true,
    engine: js,
    engineOptions: {
        'src': [
            'src/js/plugins/**/*.js',
            'src/js/main.js'
        ],
        'dest': 'dest/js/main.min.js',
        'outputFileName': 'main.js'
    }
});

What it does

• Gets the source files specified in the src property.
• Generates a single file using gulp-concat.
• Changes the extension of the outputFileName option to end with .min.js for the minified version of the file.
• Minifies the file using gulp-uglify
• Generates the sourcemaps file for the minified version of the file.
• Outputs the result to the destination specified in the dest property.

Files in the destination for the outputFileName of main.js would be:

- main.min.js
- main.min.js.map
