component-builder2

component-builder2

Another version of component's builder. Some differences:

• Everything is streaming!
• Split into multiple builders
• Much leaner require implementation
• Handles newer features like globs
• Fixes a lot of issues with the previous builder

Depends on:

• component-resolver - resolved dependency tree
• component-flatten - flatten the dependency tree to create a build order

You may be interested in:

• component-bundler - create multiple bundles from the resolved dependency tree
• component-process - a faster component(1) as a running process

Example

var build = require('component-builder2');
var resolve = require('component-resolver');
var flatten = require('component-flatten');

// resolve the dependency tree
resolve(process.cwd(), {
  // install the remote components locally
  install: true
}, function (err, tree) {
  if (err) throw err;
  // lists the components in the proper build order
  var nodes = flatten(tree);

  // only include `.js` files from components' `.scripts` field
  build.scripts(nodes)
    .use('scripts', build.plugins.js())
    .toFile('build.js');

  // only include `.css` files from components' `.styles` field
  build.styles(nodes)
    .use('styles', build.plugins.css())
    .toFile('build.css');
})

Builders

There are three types of builders:

• scripts - streaming builder for the Javascript file.
• styles - streaming builder for the CSS file.
• files - channel-based builder for everything else, which generally means copying or symlinking

You'll also want to read docs on builder, which all three builders above inherit from (files only kind of).

See the documentation for more information on each.

Examples

• simple-builder2-demo: Simple demo that shows how to use plugins and build as bundles.
