grunt-genwpstylecss

Generates WordPress theme style.css files from package.json.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt.

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 Generate WordPress style.css --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('genwpstylecss');

The "genwpstylecss" task

Overview

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

grunt.initConfig({
  genwpstylecss: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    },
