grunt-dust
Grunt.js plugin to compile dustjs templates.
Getting Started
This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0
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-dust --save-dev
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-dust');
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, but in case you can't please use v0.1.1.
Dust task
Run this task with the grunt grunt-dust
command.
Task targets, files and options may be specified according to the grunt Configuring tasks guide.
Options
wrapper
Type: String/boolean
Default: "amd"
Wrapper style to use. Accepted values are 'amd'
, 'commonjs'
, and false
.
wrapperOptions
Type: Object
Default: null
Options for the package wrapper.
wrapperOptions.packageName
Type: String
Default: ""
Package name used in define() invocation.
wrapperOptions.templatesNamesGenerator
Type: Function
Default: undefined
Function that might be used to change the templates naming convention.
Leave blank if you don't want to change it.
wrapperOptions.returning
Type: String
Default: "dust"
Name of variable which will be returned in CommonJS wrapper.
wrapperOptions.deps
Type: Object
Default: { dust: "dust-runtime" }
Amd package dependencies.
runtime
Type: boolean
Default: true
Include dust runtime file.
relative
Type: boolean
Default: false
Make templates names relative from cwd (working only if used Grunt Dynamic Mappings).
basePath
Type: string
Default: false
Exclude this path from templates names.
useBaseName
Type: boolean
Default: false
If 'true' template names will be the same as the basename of the file, sans prepended paths and file extensions. When coupled with globbing pattern '[root_folder]/**/*' all files matched will use their base names regardless of where the file is located in the directory tree rooted at root_folder. Note: One caveat - filenames must be unique! Otherwise name collisions will occur.
whitespace
Type: boolean
Default: false
optimizers
Type: Object
Default: {}
Replaces default optimizers.
Example:
options: {
optimizers: {
format: function(ctx, node) { return node; }
}
}
