grunt-qxcompiler

This pluign allows you to compile your Qooxdoo app with qxcompiler, it adds ES6 compatiblity, multi app compilation and allows you to include contribs easily.

This project is a WIP / Alpha release. Expect things to be broken or getting changed.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~1.0.1

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-qxcompiler --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-qxcompiler');

The "qxcompiler" task

Overview

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

var qxpath = '../vendor/qooxdoo';
if ('QOOXDOO_PATH' in process.env) {
  qxpath = process.env.QOOXDOO_PATH;
}

grunt.initConfig({
  // Configuration to be run
  qxcompiler: {
    options: {
      appClass: 'qxpromiserest_demo.Application',
      appName: 'qxpromiserest_demo',
      appTitle: 'QxPromiserestRest Demo',
      theme: 'qxpromiserest_demo.theme.Theme',
      locales: ['en'],
      addScript: [
        '%(QXPROMISE)s/resource/qxpromise/js/es5-sham.min.js',
        '%(QXPROMISEREST)s/resource/qxpromiserest/js/fetch.min.js',
        '%(QXPROMISE)s/resource/qxpromise/js/es5-shim.min.js',
        '%(QXPROMISE)s/resource/qxpromise/js/bluebird.min.js',
        '%(QXPROMISE)s/resource/qxpromise/js/alameda.min.js'
      ],
      addCss: [],
      libraryDirs: [
        qxpath + '/framework',
        '../qxpromiserest/vendor/qxpromise',
        '../qxpromiserest',
        '../qxpromiserest/demo/default'
      ]
    },

    source: {
      options: {
        target: 'source',
        outDir: 'out/source/'
      }
    },

    build: {
      options: {
        target: 'build',
        outDir: 'out/build/',
        // Only available within the 'build' target.
        minify: true
      }
    },

    hybrid: {
      options: {
        target: 'hybrid',
        outDir: 'out/hybrid/'
      }
    }
