grunt-egs

Compile EGS packages to JavaScript.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1

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-egs --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-egs');

This plugin was designed to work with Grunt 0.4.x. If you're still using grunt v0.3.x it's strongly recommended that you upgrade.

Egs task

Run this task with the grunt egs command.

Task targets, files and options may be specified according to the grunt Configuring tasks guide.

Options

linefeed

Type: String Default: on Windows, "\r\n", otherwise "\n"

Compilation will use this to join lines.

sourceMap

Type: boolean Default: false

Compile JavaScript and create a .map file linking it to the GorillaScript source.

sourceRoot

Type: string Default: ""

Specify the sourceRoot property in the created .map file.

encoding

Type: string Default: grunt.file.defaultEncoding, which is "utf8" unless overridden.

The encoding of the resultant .js files. Not recommended to change.

coverage

Type: boolean or string Default: false

Instruments output .js files with instrumented coverage support. If true, then '_$jscoverage' will be the name of the coverage variable, but you can define your own.

export

Type: string Default: "EGSTemplates"

Sets the global export when run in a browser rather than in node.js or with an AMD loader.

tokens

Type: string or { open: string, close: string, open-write: string, close-write: string, open-comment: string, close-comment: string } Default: "<%" or { open: "<%", close: "%>", open-write: "<%=", close-write: "%>", open-comment: "<%--", close-comment: "--%>" }

Sets the embed tokens to parse for template compilation.

If "{{" is provided, that works as { open: "", open-write: "{{", close-write: "}}", open-comment: "{#", close-comment: "#}" }.

    options: {
      sourceMap: true,
