gulp-hashify

gulp-hashify

A gulp plugin for turning a stream of files into a JavaScript object.

Installation

npm install --save-dev gulp-hashify

Usage

var hashify = require('gulp-hashify');

gulp.task('hashify', function () {
  return gulp.src('./src/views/**/*.html')
    .pipe(hashify('views.js'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist/js'));
});

After running the hashify task, there will be a ./dist/js/views.js file. Let's say that the ./src/views/ directory looked like this:

/views
  /errors
    404.html
    500.html
  index.html
  users.html

Then, ./dist/js/views.js would end up looking like this:

var views = {
  'errors/404': '<h1>Not found or whatever the content of /views/errors/404.html was</h1>',
  'errors/500': '<h1>Doh!</h1>',
  'index': 'The contents of /views/index.html',
  'users': 'The contents of /views/users.html'
};

if (typeof module !== "undefined" && module.exports) { 
  module.exports = views; 
}

Arguments

The hashify function takes two arguments:

• fileName = the name of the file to be output
• varName = (optional) the name of the variable to be included in the output file. Defaults to views. If varName has a . in it, then it will not produce a variable declaration at all.

Example

var hashify = require('gulp-hashify');

gulp.task('hashify', function () {
  return gulp.src('./src/views/**/*.html')
    .pipe(hashify('views.js', 'app.templates'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist/js'));
});

Would produce a file that looked like this:

app.templates = {
  'errors/404': '<h1>Not found or whatever the content of /views/errors/404.html was</h1>',
  'errors/500': '<h1>Doh!</h1>',
  'index': 'The contents of /views/index.html',
  'users': 'The contents of /views/users.html'
};

if (typeof module !== "undefined" && module.exports) { 
  module.exports = views; 
}
