hof-build

Performs build workflow for hof apps in prod and development

Usage

Run a build by running hof-build from the command line in your project directory.

hof-build [task]

If no task is specified then all tasks will run.

It is recommended to alias hof-build to an npm script in your package.json.

Tasks

  • browserify - compiles client-side js with browserify
  • sass - compiles sass
  • images - copies images from ./assets/images directory to ./public/images
  • translate - compiles translation files

Watch

You can additionally run a watch task to start a server instance, which will automatically restart based on changes to files. This will also re-perform the tasks above when relevant files change.

By default files inside node_modules directories and dotfiles will not trigger a restart. If you want to include these files then you can set --watch-node-modules and --watch-dotfiles flags respectively.

Local environment variables

You can load local environment variables from a file by passing an --env flag to hof-build watch and creating a .env file in your project root that defines your local variables as follows:

MY_LOCAL_ENVVAR=foo
MY_OTHER_ENVVAR=bar

Note: export is not required, and values should not be quoted.

To load variables from a file other than .env you should pass the location of the file as a value on the --env flag.

hof-build watch --env .envdev

Configuration

The default settings will match those for an app generated using hof-generator.

If a hof.settings.json file is found in the application root, then the build section of the settings file will be used to override the default configuration.

Alternatively you can define a path to a local config file by passing a --config option

hof-build --config /path/to/my/config.js

Any task can be disabled by setting its configuration to false (or any falsy value).

module.exports = {
  browserify: false
};

Configuration options

Each task has a common configuration format with the following options:

  • src - defines the input file or files for the build task
  • out - defines the output location of the built code where relevant
  • match - defines the pattern for files to watch to trigger a rebuild of this task
  • restart - defines if this task should result in a server restart

Additionally the server instance created by watch can be configured by setting server config. Available options are:

  • cmd - defines the command used to start the server
  • extensions - defines the file extensions which will be watched to trigger a restart
