Grunt Source Example

The following demonstrates the simplest way to use Grunt Source. Here, we're using grunt-source-example to minify project-1 and project-2:

$ npm install -g grunt-source
$ git clone https://github.com/jpillora/grunt-source.git
$ cd grunt-source/example/project-1
$ grunt-source
Updating Source Modules... (npm install)
npm http G...
npm http 3...
grunt@0.4....
grunt-cont...
├── grunt-...
└── uglify...
Running: grunt
Running "uglify:target1" (uglify) task
File "build/foo.js" created.
Done, without errors.

$ cd ../project-2
$ grunt-source
Running: grunt
Running "uglify:target1" (uglify) task
File "build/bar.js" created.
Done, without errors.

Note: Grunt source noticed that there was no node_modules folder in the source directory, so for the first execution, it performed an npm install.

Tip: Including a repo field in your Gruntsource.json, will tell Grunt Source to initialize the source folder using the given repo url (git clone <repo> <source>).
