grunt-amd-checkrequire

grunt-amd-checkrequire is a grunt task to check for broken AMD dependencies in a project.

Installataion

From the same directory as your Gruntfile, run

npm install grunt-amd-checkrequire

Then add the following line to your Gruntfile:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-amd-checkrequire');

You can verify that the task is available by running grunt --help and checking that "checkrequire" is under "Available tasks".

Usage

grunt-amd-checkrequire reads two sections of your config: checkrequire and requirejs. checkrequire can contain these properties (example from class.js):

checkrequire: {
	//String or Array of files for which to trace dependencies
	include: ['src/**/*.js', 'test/spec/**/*.js']
	//exclude files from the 'include' list. Useful to add specific
	//exceptions to globbing.
	exclude: []
},

requirejs is a standard r.js configuration object. grunt-amd-checkrequire uses basePath, paths, and packages (all optional) to transform AMD module names to absolute file names. If the mainConfigFile property is given, the configuration in that file will be mixed-in to the requirejs property with a lower precedence (that is, in the case of a conflicting configuration property, requirejs will always "win" against mainConfigFile).

Once these options are in place, grunt checkrequire will run grunt-amd-checkrequire and report any broken dependencies.
