grunt-autopolyfiller

Autopolyfiller - Precise polyfills. Automatic and minimal polyfills for your code.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt.

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 install grunt-autopolyfiller --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-autopolyfiller');

The "autopolyfiller" task

    autopolyfiller: {
        options: {
            browsers: ['Chrome 7']
        },
        your_target: {
            'result_polyfill_file.js': ['list/of/your/**/*.js']
        }
    }
});

Usage Examples

Multiply polyfills

By default autopolyfiller will generate polyfills for all browsers.

grunt.initConfig({
    autopolyfiller: {
        for_all_browsers: {
            files: {
                'www/file_with_all_polyfills.js': ['your/js/**/*.js'],
                'www/another_polyfills.js': ['some/js/**/*.js'],
            }
        }
    }
});

Browsers targets

You can specify list of target browsers to reduce amount of polyfills.

grunt.initConfig({
    autopolyfiller: {
        latest_browsers_and_ie: {
            options: {
                browsers: ['last 2 version', 'ie 8', 'ie 9']
            },
            files: {
                'www/file_with_all_polyfills.js': ['your/js/**/*.js']
            }
        }
    }
});

Default browsers of Autoprefixer

grunt.initConfig({
    autopolyfiller: {
        for_default_autoprefixer_browsers: {
            options: {
                browsers: require('autoprefixer').default
            },
            files: {
                'www/file_with_all_polyfills.js': ['your/js/**/*.js']
            }
        }
    }
});

Removing polyfills

grunt.initConfig({
    autopolyfiller: {
        without_promise_polyfill: {
            options: {
                exclude: ['Promise']
            },
            files: {
                'www/file_with_all_polyfills.js': ['your/js/**/*.js']
            }
        }
    }
});
