Tempaw Build

Simple Gulp add-on for easy project building.

Usage

Simple step-by-step guide:

• Create the gulpfile.js file in the project’s root directory.
• Import the tempaw-build module.
• Export the result of calling the task function with necessary parameters.
• Run the file via the console (gulp)

For example:

const { action, task } = require( 'tempaw-build' );

module.exports.build = task([
	action.clean({ src: 'dist' }),
	action.copy({ src: [ 'dev/**/*.scss', 'dev/**/*.pug' ], dest: 'tmp' }),
	action.del({ src: 'tmp/**/*', marker: 'DIST' }),
	action.sass({ src: 'tmp/**/!(_)*.scss', dest: 'dist' }),
	action.pug({ src: 'tmp/components/page/!(_)*.pug', dest: 'dist' }),
	action.copy({ src: [ 'dev/**/*.js', 'dev/**/*.ico' ], dest: 'dist' }),
	action.minifyimg({ src: [ 'dev/**/*.jpg', 'dev/**/*.png' ], dest: 'dist' }),
	action.clean({ src: 'tmp' })
]);

Custom action

A conditional action is a function of a gulp task or a simple object with the execute parameter that represents a gulp task, too.

Examples:

let action = function ( end ) {
  console.log( 'Hello world' );
  end();
};

let actionObject = {
  execute: function ( end ) {
    console.log( 'Hello world' );
    end();
  }
};

let actionObject = {
  execute: function () {
    return src( 'src/*.js' )
      .pipe( dest( 'output/' ) );
  }
};

To shorten the routine actions, a function that returns an action object can be used, for example:

/**
 * File copying
 * @param {object} data - object with parameters
 * @param {string|Array.<string>} data.src - glob file selection for copying
 * @param {string} data.dest - destination path
 * @return {object}
 */
let myCopy = function ( obj ) {
  // Checking for required parameters
  if ( !obj || !obj.src || !obj.dest ) throw Error( 'Required parameter of myCopy not specified (src, dest)' );

  // Gulp task for file copying with the received parameters obj.src and obj.dest
  obj.execute = function () {
    return src( obj.src ).pipe( dest( obj.dest ) );
  }

  // Changing the task name
  obj.execute.displayName = 'My Simple Copy';

  // Returning the action object
  return obj;
};

Now, a new action can be used:

const { action, task } = require( 'tempaw-build' );

module.exports.build = task([
	action.clean({ src: 'dist' }),
	myCopy({ src: [ 'dev/**/*.scss', 'dev/**/*.pug' ], dest: 'tmp' }),
	action.del({ src: 'tmp/**/*', marker: 'DIST' }),
	action.sass({ src: 'tmp/**/!(_)*.scss', dest: 'dist' }),
	action.pug({ src: 'tmp/components/page/!(_)*.pug', dest: 'dist' }),
	myCopy({ src: [ 'dev/**/*.js', 'dev/**/*.ico' ], dest: 'dist' }),
	action.minifyimg({ src: [ 'dev/**/*.jpg', 'dev/**/*.png' ], dest: 'dist' }),
	action.clean({ src: 'tmp' })
]);
