gulp-cram

Assemble resources using cujoJS cram

Install

Install with npm

npm install --save-dev gulp-cram

Example

Tell cram.js to inspect the main page of an app that uses a static index.html file:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var cram = require('gulp-cram');
var uglify = require('gulp-uglify');

gulp.task('default', function () {

    var opts = {
        configFiles: [ 'build-options.json']
    };

    cram('./client/index.html', opts).into('main.js')
        .pipe(uglify())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));

});

Instruct cram.js to inspect the run.js file (the AMD configuration file) of a web app that does not use a static html file:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var cram = require('gulp-cram');
var uglify = require('gulp-uglify');

gulp.task('default', function () {

    var opts = {
        appRoot: 'mywebapp/',
        configFiles: [ 'build-options.json' ],
    };

    cram('mywebapp/run.js', opts).into('main.js')
        .pipe(uglify())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

Explicitly direct cram.js to create a bundle using options from a JSON file:

var gulp = require('gulp');
var cram = require('gulp-cram');
var uglify = require('gulp-uglify');

gulp.task('default', function () {

    var opts = {
        configFiles: [ 'build-options.json' ],
        includes: [ 'mywebapp/curl/src/curl.js' ]
    };

    cram('', opts).into('mywebapp/app.js')
        .pipe(uglify())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

API

cram(grokfile, options).into(output, readOptions)

grokfile

Type: String

Accepts a a string indicating an HTML or JavaScript file to auto-configure. It uses the same code inference algorithm as cram's command line HTML auto-configuration feature.

options

Type: Object

A JavaScript object like:

var options = {

    // A string representing the path of the root of the application files.
    // This would typically point at the same directory as baseUrl in your AMD config.
    // This option is unnecessary if you specify a grok parameter that references an HTML file.
    appRoot: './src/app/',

    // An array of JSON-formatted files containing AMD configurations.
    // These configuration options will override any found by the grok option.
    configFiles: [ 'cramOverrides.json', 'productionOverrides.json' ],

    // An array of the ids of modules to include in the bundle.
    includes: [ 'analytics/flurry' ],

    // An array of the ids of modules to exclude from the bundle.
    excludes: [ 'app/settings' ],

    // A string indicating the location of an AMD loader script.
    // This script will be inserted at the very beginning of the output bundle.
    loader: './src/lib/curl/loader.js'
};

For more details, check out cram's CLI options.

output

Type: String

Accepts a string indicating path and name of the file to be streamed.

readOptions

Type: Object

A JavaScript object like:

var options = {

    // A boolean that indicates if the result should be a buffer or a stream
    // Default value is 'true', so a buffer
    buffer: true
}
