How can I create a task for schematics?

Angular schematics has some tasks. I want to create my own task to run with the script executor. An example of how angular does this.

At the moment I just spawn predefined tasks at the end of the schematic.

Solution

  • I was able to register an executor, but it is not supported, as I am using a private field. Here is what you need to do:

    const host = <NodeModulesEngineHost>(<any>context.engine)._host; // this line is not supported
host.registerTaskExecutor<YourFactoryOptions>({
  name: "your-executor-name",
  create: (opt) => import('../path/to/executor').then(mod => mod.default(opt))
});

    You can see on Github how to create the task executor registration, and then it is later actually registered here.
