Helpers

var tools = require('node-runner/lib/tools');

Remove some generated files:

tools.unlink(
    ['build/develop/main.css', 'build/develop/main.js'],
    log,
    function ( error ) {
        console.log(error);    
    }
);

Write generated files content:

tools.write(
    [{name: 'build/develop/main.js', data: someContent}],
    log,
    function ( error ) {
        console.log(error);    
    }
);

Create new directories and any necessary subdirectories:

tools.mkdir(
    ['build/develop', 'build/release'],
    log,
    function ( error ) {
        console.log(error);    
    }
);
