grunt-micro

Ensure your micro-framework stays micro.

Does your project page say Less than xKB min'd and Gzipped? Make the build fail if you're lying.

Grunt-micro is particularly useful when paired with TravisCI to verify all pull requests are within your specified size limit.

By default, grunt-micro is configured to ensure eligibility for microjs.com (5KB Gzipped and under).

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

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-micro --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-micro');

The "micro" task

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig({
  micro: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    my_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    }
  }
});

Options

options.limit

Type: Number Default value: 5120 (5KB)

File size limit in bytes.

options.gzip

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
