Unicorn

Simple build platform for wria2 and sheath projects.

Features:

• Wrap the code with YUI().use(), YUI.add() or nothing depending on the module configuration.
• Rollup creation.
• Linting with JS linter (JSHint or ESLint) and CSSLint.
• Minification for JS, CSS and i18n files.
• Watch functionality to build on demand.

Examples

• Build a module

  unicorn

• Build a module skipping linting and setting the logger to error

  unicorn -s -w

• Building the whole project

  unicorn -g --cwd <path to the root of the project>

• Run watch command

  unicorn --watch --cwd <path to the root of the project>

JShint or ESLint

JSHint is the linter used by default.

The linters are not manually selected. The tool searches for the configuration files on the working directory:

• ESLint uses .eslintrc.
• JSHint uses .jshintrc.

ESlint has higher priority. This means that if the file .eslintrc is found ESLint is used, otherwise JSHint is used.

Development
