I cant really seem to figure out how to structure the config for a certain task. Currently I'm trying to do this for cssmin
.
This config snippet works fine:
cssmin: {
options: {
shorthandCompacting: false,
roundingPrecision: -1
},
target: {
files: {
'wwwroot/all.css': ['bower_components/animate/animate.css']
}
}
},
And I'm running this like so:
grunt.registerTask('Test', ['cssmin']);
But I want create a develop and release config for this. So I tried the following config styles, all of them said Done, without errors.
, but none of the configs created a file.
cssmin: {
options: {
shorthandCompacting: false,
roundingPrecision: -1
},
dev: {
target: {
files: {
'wwwroot/all.css': ['bower_components/animate/animate.css']
}
}
}
}
grunt.registerTask('Test', ['cssmin:dev']);
And like this:
cssmin: {
dev: {
options: {
shorthandCompacting: false,
roundingPrecision: -1
},
target: {
files: {
'wwwroot/all.css': ['bower_components/animate/animate.css']
}
}
}
}
grunt.registerTask('Test', ['cssmin:dev']);
But those configs don't seem to work. They save Done, without errors.
, but it isn't creating a CSS file like the first config example does.
So isn't this the way you should create a different dev
/release
type of config? What am I doing wrong here?
When you call cssmin:dev
, dev is your target. there is no need to specify the target
propriety w/in it again. try this:
cssmin: {
dev: {
options: {
shorthandCompacting: false,
roundingPrecision: -1
},
files: {
'wwwroot/all.css': ['bower_components/animate/animate.css']
}
},
build : {
options: {
shorthandCompacting: true,
roundingPrecision: -1
},
files: {
'wwwroot/all.min.css': ['bower_components/animate/animate.css']
}
}
}
grunt.registerTask('Test', ['cssmin:dev']);
