kraken-devtools

kraken-devtools

Compile-on-the-fly and other development tools for use when building express applications.

Middleware compiler

The middleware compiler builds your dependencies as they are requested, allowing you to run your express application as-is and not have to set up a watch task.

Usage

var app = require('express')(),
    devtools = require('kraken-devtools');

app.use(devtools(/* src, dest [, config] */));

Parameters

src - The directory of your source files, e.g. LESS, SASS, Dust
dest - The destination directory for the compiled files
config - Optional. An object of compilers to enable

Compilers

LESS, SASS, and Dust compilers are provided by default in addition to a static file copier. To add additonal compilers pass then to the config value, e.g.:

{
    "less": {
        "module": "kraken-devtools/plugins/less",
        "files": "/css/**/*.css"
    }
}
