gulp-anybar

Gulp plugin for AnyBar.app

Developed by Florian Eckerstorfer in Vienna, Europe.

Usage

There are two ways to set the AnyBar color using this plugin. If you pass the color to anybar() then this color will be set. If no color is specified then the color will be read from file.anybar property passed to the plugin.

In the following example the AnyBar color is set to orange and someOtherPlugin() will set the file.anybar attribute to another color. When this file is piped to the second instance of anybar() this color will be set. This is useful when someOtherPlugin() runs, for example, tests. While the tests are running the icon is orange and after the tests are finished the icon will be set to be either red or green.

var gulp             = require('gulp'),
    anybar           = require('gulp-anybar'),
    someOther Plugin = require('gulp-some-other-plugin');

gulp.src(srcFiles)
    .pipe(anybar('orange'))
    .pipe(someOtherPlugin())
    .pipe(anybar());

It is also possible to start and quit the AnyBar.app in the Gulpfile.

gulp.task('watch', function () {
    anybar.start();

    // some watchers and stuff
});

process.on('SIGINT',function(){
    anybar.quit({}, function () {process.exit(); });
});
