gulp-browserify2

After the enormous success and deprecation of gulp-browserify here comes gulp-browserify2!

It basically is a gulp-task-wrapper around the gulp with browserify recipe.

Currently supported features:

• Streaming (creates a vinyl compatible stream)
• Multiple entry points
• Transforms
• Works fine with source maps

Install

npm install --save-dev gulp-browserify2

Getting started

It works with a fine gulpesque API:

var browserify = require('gulp-browserify2');

gulp.src('/js/index.js')
  .pipe(browserify({
    fileName: 'bundle.js',
    transform: require('6to5ify'),
    options: {
      debug: false
    }
  })
  .pipe(uglify())
  // ...
  .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/js/'));

Mutliple entry points:

gulp.src(['/js/index.js', '/js/index2.js'])
  .pipe(browserify()
  .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/js/'));

API

Options

This task accepts the following options:

fileName (default: 'bundle.js')

The filename for the output file.

transform (default: null)

This options defines one or more browserify-specific transform modules. Can be an array pipeline or a single value which holds the required transformation modules.

Example:

// ...
.pipe(browserify({
  fileName: 'bundle.js',
  transform: [require('6to5ify'), require('coffeeify')] // yeah this example is kind of silly
}))
// ...

It is also possible to pass transform plugin options:

// ...
.pipe(browserify({
  fileName: 'bundle.js',
  transform: {
    tr: require('6to5ify'),
    options: {
      blacklist: ['generators']
    }
  }
}))
// ...

options (default: {})

Possibility to pass browserify options. See example in 'Getting started'.

To-Do and contributing

Some other browserify features are yet to implement (like plugins). If you're missing features or found a bug please open pull-requests or issues on github.
