So, I’ve decided to showcase my go-to setup for <code>gulp</code> and explain what the heck it does step-by-step. </p> -<p>Here is the final <code>gulp.js</code> file in all it’s glory:</p> -<pre><code>var gulp = require('gulp'); -var shell = require('gulp-shell'); -var sass = require('gulp-sass'); - -/* Build and watch Jekyll (change this task to whatever you need) */ -gulp.task('generate', shell.task('jekyll serve')); - -/* Compile SCSS files to CSS */ -gulp.task('styles', function () { - return gulp.src('_includes/assets/sass/styles.scss') - .pipe(sass({ - outputStyle: 'compressed' - }).on('error', sass.logError)) - .pipe(gulp.dest('_includes/assets/css/')); -}); - -/* Compile the assets */ -gulp.task('assets', gulp.parallel( - 'styles' -)); - -/* Build */ -gulp.task('build', gulp.series( - 'assets', - 'generate' -)); -</code></pre> -<p>Trust me, it’s not complicated at all.</p> -<h2 id="grabbing-what-we-need">Grabbing what we need</h2> -<p>For our basic build file we are going to need only three modules: <code>gulp</code>, <code>gulp-shell</code> and <code>gulp-sass</code>.</p> -<pre><code>var gulp = require('gulp'); -var shell = require('gulp-shell'); -var sass = require('gulp-sass'); -</code></pre> -<h4 id="gulp">gulp</h4> -<p>This is the streaming build system, without it we can’t do anything else.</p> -<h4 id="gulp-shell">gulp-shell</h4> -<p>A gulp command line interface for us to interact with our terminal.</p> -<h4 id="gulp-sass">gulp-sass</h4> -<p>Required for gulp to compile Sass into vanilla CSS.</p> -<h4 id="bonus-tasks">Bonus tasks</h4> -<h2 id="generating-the-build">Generating the build</h2> -<p>Our first step is to create the default task that will generate our build. In this example we are making the assumption that we’re building a Jekyll website (but you can place any build command here):</p> -<pre><code>gulp.task('generate', shell.task('jekyll serve')); -</code></pre> -<p>Don’t worry if this <code>generate</code> isn’t clear, we come back to that later.</p> -<h2 id="processing-our-pre-processor">Processing our pre-processor</h2> -<p>We will name this next task <code>styles</code> since that’s what it outputs - our styling. We start by telling gulp where our main <code>scss</code> directory is:</p> -<pre><code>/* Change this directory to match yours */ -return gulp.src('_includes/assets/sass/styles.scss') -</code></pre> -<p>This next piece tells the plugin to compress our final compiled CSS, log any errors if there are issues with the build and then export it to our destination directory:</p> -<pre><code>.pipe(sass({ - outputStyle: 'compressed' -}).on('error', sass.logError)) - -/* Change this to your destination directory */ -.pipe(gulp.dest('_includes/assets/css/')); -</code></pre> -<h2 id="building-our-assets">Building our assets</h2> -<p>This step isn’t 100% needed, but I like to include it for when more assets need to be added (minifying JavaScript, compressing images, etc)</p> -<pre><code>/* -Compile the assets -*/ -gulp.task('assets', gulp.parallel( - 'styles' -)); -</code></pre> -<h2 id="altogether-now">Altogether now!</h2> -<p>Now we add a task that runs all other tasks in our gulp file (in this case it will run both <code>assets</code> and <code>generate</code>)</p> -<pre><code>/* -Build -*/ -gulp.task('build', gulp.series( - 'assets', - 'generate' -)); -</code></pre> -<p>And that’s it - we’re done! A very basic <code>gulp</code> build for compiling Sass.</p> -<footer role="contentinfo"> - <h2>Menu Navigation</h2> - <ul id="menu"> - <li><a href="/">Home</a></li> - <li><a href="/projects">Projects</a></li> - <li><a href="/uses">Uses</a></li> - <li><a href="/wiki">Wiki</a></li> - <li><a href="/resume">Resume</a></li> - <li><a href="/colophon">Colophon</a></li> - <li><a href="/now">Now</a></li> - <li><a href="/donate">Donate</a></li> - <li><a href="/atom.xml">RSS</a></li> - <li><a href="#top">↑ Top of the page</a></li> - </ul> - <small> - Built with <a href="https://barf.btxx.org">barf</a>. <br> - Feeds: <a href="/atom.xml">Atom</a> & <a href="/rss.xml">RSS</a><br> - Maintained with ♥ for the web. <br> - Proud supporter of <a href="https://usefathom.com/ref/DKHJVX">Fathom</a> & <a href="https://nextdns.io/?from=74d3p3h8">NextDNS</a>. <br> - The content for this site is <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/">CC-BY-SA</a>.<br> The <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/bt.ht">code for this site</a> is <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~bt/bt.ht/tree/master/item/LICENSE">MIT</a>. - </small> -</footer>
