Automate running Google PageSpeed Insights and record metrics with Grunt
This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.5
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-psi --save-dev
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-psi');
In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named psi
to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig()
.
grunt.initConfig({
psi: {
options: {
// Task-specific options go here.
}
},
});

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.
