grunt-traceur

A grunt plugin for Google's Traceur-Compile, a lib to compile ES6 JavaScript into ES3 JavaScript.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

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-traceur --save-dev

One the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-traceur');

The "traceur" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named traceur to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  traceur: {
      custom: {
        files:{
          'build/': ['js/**/*.js'] // dest : [source files]
        }
      },
    }
})

Once the files have ben transpiled into ES3, you can minify or concat them.

SourceMaps will be available in a future version.

Contributing

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.
