NOTE! This version is not ready yet. It does do what it needs to - kind of - but it is missing configuration and documentation.
Build application packages with Cordova.
This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1
If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:
npm install grunt-cordova --save-dev
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-cordova');
This plugin works on OSX, it might work on Linux and it just might work on Windows as well.
You need to have git on your path.
You also need to have the android command line utilities on your path. Try 'adb' on the command-line to see if it works. If it doesn't, search the internet for now.
In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named cordova
to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig()
.
grunt.initConfig({
cordova: {
options: {
// Task-specific options go here.
},
your_target: {
// Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
},
},
})
Type: String
Default value: '.cordova'
Path where the git/ and build/ directories will be created. They contain the git checkouts of different Cordova versions and the actual projects - respectively.
Type: String
Default value: 'com.example'
The application package path used in the build.
In this example, the default options are used to do something with whatever. So if the testing
file has the content Testing
and the 123
file had the content 1 2 3
, the generated result would be Testing, 1 2 3.
grunt.initConfig({
cordova: {
options: {},
files: {
'dest/default_options': ['src/testing', 'src/123'],
},
},
})
In this example, custom options are used to do something else with whatever else. So if the testing
file has the content Testing
and the 123
file had the content 1 2 3
, the generated result in this case would be Testing: 1 2 3 !!!
grunt.initConfig({
cordova: {
options: {
separator: ': ',
punctuation: ' !!!',
},
files: {
'dest/default_options': ['src/testing', 'src/123'],
},
},
})
In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
