grunt-angular-template-embedding

Simple Grunt plugin for angular template embed in directives

What's this?

This Grunt plugin allows you to embed AngularJS templates inside directives. I am aware that there are many other plugins like this but none did exactly what I wanted.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-angular-template-embedding --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-angular-template-embedding');

The "embedtemplates" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named embedtemplates to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
	embedtemplates: {
   		app: {
       		src: 'src/*/directive.js',
        	dest: 'directive.ext.js'
      	}
   },
})

Options

To be done

Usage Examples

The plugin expects two options:

• src - directive file or files where templateUrl properties will be substituted with template property followed by minified html.
• dest - the file where the resultant directive will be saved (same folder of original).

Note: templateUrl must be an absolute path from the root of the web-app folder.

app.directive('yourDirective', function() {
  ...
  return{
		...,
    templateUrl:'/path/to/template.html'
  };
}]);

Contributing

In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
