The streaming build system
For Getting started, API docs, recipes, etc. see the documentation page!
This file is just a quick sample to give you a taste of what gulp does.
var gulp = require('gulp');
var uglify = require('gulp-uglify');
var imagemin = require('gulp-imagemin');
gulp.task('scripts', function() {
// Minify and copy all JavaScript (except vendor scripts)
return gulp.src(['client/js/**/*.js', '!client/js/vendor/**'])
.pipe(uglify())
.pipe(gulp.dest('build/js'));
});
// Copy all static images
gulp.task('images', function() {
return gulp.src('client/img/**')
.pipe(imagemin())
.pipe(gulp.dest('build/img'));
});
// The default task (called when you run `gulp`)
gulp.task('default', function() {
gulp.run('scripts', 'copy');
// Watch files and run tasks if they change
gulp.watch('client/js/**', function() {
gulp.run('scripts');
});
gulp.watch('client/img/**', function() {
gulp.run('images');
});
});
Tasks can be executed by running gulp <task> <othertask>
. Just running gulp
will execute the task you registered called default
. If there is no default
task gulp will error.
You can use any language you want for your gulpfile. You will have to specify the language module name so the CLI can load it (and its associated extensions) before attempting to find your gulpfile. Make sure you have this module installed accessible by the folder you are running the CLI in.
Example:
gulp dosomething --require coffee-script
See the [Writing a gulp plugin] wiki page for guidelines and an example to get you started.
