To install the latest version, execute npm install -g brunch

Brunch 2.10 (Jan 13, 2017)

  • Added yarn support.

    • Fixed --debug option. Thanks @denysdovhan.
  • bower install runs automatically now.
  • Improved error messages. Thanks @lydell.
  • Fixed double error logging. Thanks @stelmakh.
  • Fixed persistent errors in static files compilers.
  • Fixed infinite compilation caused by file writes in preCompile.
  • Plugins now can change file path.
  • New API for changing file extension: .targetExtension.
  • Brunch now respects NODE_ENV variable.
  • Other code refactorings and fixes.

Brunch 2.9 (Oct 23, 2016)

  • Added new CLI option --network: sets server's hostname to 0.0.0.0. Thanks @shreeve.
  • Reduced installation size of Brunch by 5Mb.
  • Fixed Brunch not quitting immediately after compilation finished.
  • Improved performance of loading configs and writing source maps to disk.
  • Improved config handling:
    • Trailing slashes from config.path are now removed. Thanks @herenow.
    • Fixed warning on hot option set in config.
    • Added "inline" option to config.sourceMaps.
    • Allow specifying watched globs in getDependencies.
    • Allow specifying teardown in config.hooks.
    • If templates.joinTo is empty, javascripts.joinTo will be used.
    • Added bower.enabled: false option to ignore bower.
  • lint and getDependencies now support new promise-based single-parameter plugin API.
  • include supports returning Promise that resolves to an Array. Thanks @jacksonrayhamilton.
  • Various performance improvements and refactorings.

Brunch 2.8 (May 21, 2016)

  • Added plugin API for asset compilation e.g. jade to html.
  • Watcher improvements:
    • Brunch will not try to npm install if only the config was changed.
    • NPM: improved handling of added & removed files during watch. Adding a new file will now try to re-check files that previously failed due to module resolution errors. Removing a file will now cause the files that depended on it to be re-checked.
    • Fixed a memory leak issue after watcher reload (due to config change or update in package.json).
  • Small API improvements:
    • Changed back to destinationPath (instead of destPath since 2.6) in Asset that is received in onCompile
    • Moved config.plugins.npm to config.npm.compilers
  • Print a warning if a plugin from devDependencies fails to load.
  • NPM: require.alias will now be inserted only in the bundles which contain the aliased file. Previous behavior was that all output file contained all possible aliases.

Brunch 2.7 (Apr 21, 2016)

  • Introduced support for Hot Module Replacement API with hmr-brunch.
  • Added config file validation of format and types.
  • Allow JavaScript files from NPM packages to get processed with plugins (config.plugins.npm).
  • Fixed entryPoint-related warnings on Windows.
  • Brunch will now try to recover from MODULE_NOT_FOUND errors caused by the config, by trying to npm install.
  • The slashes in file paths are now normalized early. The plugins will always receive paths with UNIX-style slashes even on Windows (/).

Brunch 2.6 (Apr 2, 2016)

  • Non-JS files can now output JS modules.
    • You are now able to import stylesheets from Sass, Less, CSS in JS.
    • For this to work, don't forget to enable proper config option for each plugin.
  • Added experimental support for entryPoints, a smarter alternative to joinTo:
    • joinTo concatenates all files that match the pattern into one
    • entryPoints allow you to specify first input file. Then Brunch automatically calculates which modules and dependencies will be used in the output. This way, unused files would not get compiled.
  • Add support for BRUNCH_JOBS environment variable to be able to specify number of jobs to process your build.
  • Fixed an issue when Brunch was forking processes even if -j flag was not passed which caused some extreme CPU and memory issues.
  • Deprecated onCompile config option in favor of new hooks.onCompile.
  • Fix a type error when checkin if a file was written.
  • Don't categorize node_modules as 'assets' even if they match the regexp
  • Fixed brokenness of some plugins like static-jade-brunch.
  • Fixes parent recompilation when a dependency changes.
  • Improved npm install behavior while Brunch is watching:
    • Make sure Brunch waits for it before proceeding.
    • Make it aware of production env flag for Heroku.
  • Small bugfix for dependency parser.

Brunch 2.5 (Mar 22, 2016)

  • Improved NPM support:
    • Added support for scoped npm packages, like @cycle/dom.
    • Brunch will now try to npm install if you try to require a package that is present in package.json but was not installed.
    • optionalDependencies are now correctly ignored when not present.
    • peerDepdenencides are treated as required ones.
    • Improperly-cased requires (like React instead of react) will now throw compile errors.
    • Fixed npm mail file resolving which was not working before in some cases (rx).
  • Support for file extensions:
    • Brunch will now register CommonJS modules using full names of the files, and create aliases without extensions to allow you to use both styles of requires.
    • Basically these cases are possible & different now: require('file.json') and require('file.js')
  • Parallel builds: Bringing up to 50% performance improvement with just one simple flag.
    • You can use the -j 2 / 4 flag with build / watch to parallelize CPU-bould tasks in your build. See docs for more details.
  • React hot load support:
    • Bumped commonjs-require-definition to allow resetting modules, which can be used for live JS reloading with the updated auto-reload-brunch
  • Improved output for JavaScript files.
  • Allow to specify again conventions.vendor as an anymatch set.
  • Fixed double inclusion of some files on Windows.
  • Fixed an issue when joinTo production override did not have any effect.
  • Fixed JSON file loading.

Brunch 2.4 (Feb 23, 2016)

  • You can now simply set config.modules = false to disable module wrapping.
  • Brunch would now correctly include file-based aliases for NPM packages. For example, this means you would be able to load require('moment/locales/en') even though the file is not declared in moment's package.json.
  • Fixed auto-expanding of GH URLs in skeletons: brunch new --skeleton paulmillr/brunch-with-chaplin
  • Removed component.js support, which was barely supported since v2.0.
  • Added warning for versions of NPM <3, because Brunch does not work on those.

  • NPM: Fixed support for different versions of the same package.
  • Enabled NPM support by default
  • NPM: Added aliases support
  • NPM: Added support for including static files.
  • NPM: Added support for different versions of the same package.
  • NPM: Watcher would detect removed packages from users source code and then do a corresponding recompilation.
  • NPM: Added support for json files.
  • onCompile config option now receives modified assets as a second argument.
  • server config option now allows to specify custom hostnames
  • New warning: When brunch w -s -p 3334 is used (instead of -P)
  • New warning: When defaultExtension option is used. It has been removed in Brunch 1.1, but many configs still have it.

Brunch 2.2 (Jan 22, 2016)

  • Massively improved NPM integration:
    1. Brunch would now automatically detect and extract all npm packages.

  • Massively improved debug output (-d) readability.
  • Now throwing correct import errors (gh-1053, gh-1041).
  • NPM integration was hugely reworked. Disabled by default for now.
    1. With config.npm.enabled = true, all non-brunch NPM packages would be loaded automatically.
    2. To exclude packages, specify the blacklist: config.npm = {blacklist: ['express']}
    3. To include packages manually, specify the whitelist: config.npm = {whitelist: ['react', 'react-dom', 'pikaday']}
  • Fixes an issue when NPM packages were included incorrectly on Windows.
  • brunch build -d is now able to receive an optional filterer argument
  • brunch new and brunch build hangup fixes.
  • NPM integration fixes

Brunch v2 requires node 4.0 / npm 3.0 or higher.

  • brunch new reworked, simplified and receives new syntax:
    • brunch new . to create a new project in current directory from dead-simple skeleton
    • brunch new path to create the project in path
    • brunch new . --skeleton react to create the project from React skeleton
    • Now allowing to clone skeletons to dirs with .git directory.

  • modules.autoRequire should now work correctly on Windows.
  • Fixes using production flag (-p) with multiple optimizers (gh-1056).
  • Brunch would now auto-expand the following syntax to a full GitHub user / repo URL: brunch new --skeleton paulmillr/brunch-with-chaplin

  • Fix: Linters now get the correct linter context.
  • Compilation log would now use seconds instead of milliseconds for long compilations.
  • Launching Brunch on node v4< would now throw an explicit error.

Brunch 1.8.5 (Aug 5, 2015)

  • Only listen to stdin (and exit when stdin is closed) when the --stdin CLI switch is passed

Brunch 1.8.4 (Jul 31, 2015)

  • Add modules.autoRequire option that would automatically append require('module') to your javascript outputs.

Brunch 1.8.3 (May 19, 2015)

  • Fix restarting watcher upon config change
  • Fix issue with npm includes that have no dependencies

Brunch 1.8.2 (Apr 21, 2015)

  • Fix regression with -d/--debug CLI switch

  • Enabled NPM support by default. Just load any installed npm package in your code via require('package').

Brunch 1.8.0 (Apr 8, 2015)

  • Added experimental NPM support for client-side libraries. Just specify dependencies in package.json and load them within your app with require('package'). Brunch would do all the hard job for you. Behind config option for now (config.npm = {enabled: true}).
  • Ultra-simple custom webservers. Brunch will now consume file brunch-server.{js,coffee} if it exists and it would be used to launch a custom webserver that launches with brunch watch --server. Also, no more need to write startServer — just export the function with module.exports
  • Added preCompile plugins (gh-873).
  • Compilers can now return dependencies: {data: 'file-data', dependencies: ['a.js', 'b.js']}
  • Fixed env handling for optimizers (gh-903)
  • Only listen to stdin if in persistent mode (gh-920)
  • Added fcache - a simple way to speed-up your plugins like sass or jade. fcache is a simple filesystem wrapper that allows to read files and to update them in cache. Brunch would usually update them on every change, after that your plugin will pull the data from RAM and would be super fast.
  • Massive improvements to file watcher.

    • server.command for setting non-node.js custom server
    • Pass server.config settings to custom server
    • Create absoluteUrl option for source maps
    • Support for array of files in pluginHelpers config setting
  • IMPORTANT NOTE: If providing a custom node server for brunch watch, ensure it invokes the callback when ready, as brunch now waits for that before proceeding with build steps.

  • component integration
  • anysort/anymatch integration, providing much more flexible ways to define source files in config such as in joinTo and order

Brunch 1.7.8 (Oct 10, 2013)

NOTE: Re-published on 16 October 2013 due to npm bug. If installed prior to this date, it will actually run as if it is 1.7.6.

  • Switched source maps format to new (//#). Old format is still available via config.sourceMaps = 'old'
  • Assets dotfile ignore exception to enable copying of .rewrite files.

Brunch 1.7.7 (Sep 28, 2013)

NOTE: Re-published on 16 October 2013 due to npm bug. If installed prior to this date, it will actually run as if it is 1.7.6.

  • Quick fix for --optimized building.

Brunch 1.7.3 (Aug 28, 2013)

  • Added -e, --env param to build and watch that will replace --config in 1.8. env is a dead-simple way of specifying your work environment. You can use --env production and then specify config.overrides.production, all properties of which will override default config. You may use more than one --env.
  • Source maps for languages which don't support source maps (“identity source maps”) now generated from compiled source (js) instead of original source (coffee)
  • Deprecated --optimize (use --env production or --production) and --config options.

Brunch 1.7.2 (Aug 19, 2013)

  • Fixed windows issues with compilation.
  • Auto-watching bower.json for changes now.
  • Concatenate JS files in main property of bower component in valid order (how they were specified in bower.json).
  • Respect config.order.before in brunch config for bower files.

Brunch 1.7.1 (Aug 11, 2013)

  • Local brunch package now takes precedence over global and will be auto-loaded on global brunch command.
  • Added pluginHelpers directive to joinTo configs. It allows to specify to which file you want stuff from plugins to be added (handlebars-runtime.js, for example).
  • .htaccess is now properly copied from assets.
  • Fixed issues on windows with copying many assets.

Brunch 1.7.0 (Jul 23, 2013)

  • Added source maps support! Big thanks to Pierre Lepers and Elan Shanker.
  • Added Twitter Bower package manager support. The support is very different from modern builders. You don’t need to specify concat order or list all files, brunch will do that for you automatically. But, some packages don’t specify which files they include and on which packages they depend. You may specify overrides property in root bower.json, see read-components docs
  • Added proper AMD support. Just include almond.js with your AMD app and brunch will do require.js optimizer job for you.
  • Added ability to use multiple compilator plugins for one file.

  • Use --production instead of --optimize flag, which has been deprecated.

Brunch 1.5.4 (Mar 19, 2013)

  • Fixed brunch generate, switched to standalone modules for some features.
  • Added node 0.10 support.

Brunch 1.5.3 (Feb 2, 2013)

  • When using brunch generate, generator will no longer overwrite existing files.
  • Preserved context of include method of plugins.

Brunch 1.5.2 (Jan 13, 2013)

  • Improved installation process.

Brunch 1.5.1 (Jan 11, 2013)

  • Tester no longer runs watcher by default.
  • Changed brunch test -f REGEX option to -g / --grep for consistency with Mocha.

Brunch 1.5.0 (Jan 2, 2013)

  • Added ability to wrap files in sourceURLs which simplifies debugging a lot. Disabled by default in non-production mode, but can be disabled with config.modules.addSourceURLs = false.
  • Added -f REGEX, --filter REGEX option to brunch test.
  • --minify (-m) command line option was changed to --optimize (-o). The previous version is deprecated and will be removed in the future. This is made for plugins that will do optimizations of you application that are not minifications.

Brunch 1.4.5 (Dec 14, 2012)

  • Updated base brunch with chaplin skeleton to the latest libs.

Brunch 1.4.4 (Oct 1, 2012)

  • All errors are now deferred to the compilation end. Also, if you have added one error on previous compilation and one error on current, brunch will show both of them until they will be fixed.
  • Fixed terminal-notifier.app integration.
  • Fixed test passing.
  • Fixed config.notifications on ubuntu.

Brunch 1.4.3 (Sep 2, 2012)

  • Assets are now affected by conventions.ignored too.
  • Fixed linting bug.

Brunch 1.4.0 (Aug 4, 2012)

  • Added new phenomenally simplified scaffolder:
    1. Create generators/ directory in your brunch application (directory name is customizable by config.paths.generators).
    2. Create generator directory there with generator.json and files that will be generated.
  • Added conventions:
    • Conventions are configurable via config.conventions[name]. Convention can be a RegExp or Function.
    • assets convention: all files in directories that named as assets (default value) will be copied to public path directly.
    • vendor All files in directories that named as vendor (default value) won't be wrapped in modules.
    • tests convention: all files that end with _test.<extension> (default value) are considered as test files and will be loaded automatically with brunch test.
    • ignored convention: all files that start with _ (default value) are considered as partial files and won't be compiled. Useful for Stylus / Sass languages. This replaces functionality of config.paths.ignored.
  • Added AMD support by allowing more flexibility with file wrapping:
    • config.modules can be an object of:
      • config.modules.wrapper - string, boolean or function, defines how to wrap files in app directory in modules.
      • config.modules.definition - string, boolean or function, defines what to add on top of every file.
  • Added linting support. Linting is a static analysis of code. Example tools for this are JSHint, CSSLint etc. The lint API is plugin.lint(data, path, callback). One file can use more than one linter.
  • Added config option that disables growl / libnotify notifications. Usage: config.notifications = false.
  • Added support for Mac OS X Mountain Lion notification center. You'll need to place terminal-notifier.app to /Applications/ to get it work.
  • Removed support for:
    • config.files[lang].defaultExtension. Brunch will automatically detect extension from your generator file name.
    • config.framework, config.generators. It's not needed because all generators are local to your application and because brunch now has generators/ directory.
    • Array type of paths.vendor / paths.assets. They're replaced by conventions.
  • If any error happened in brunch build, it will exit with error code 1 instead of 0.
  • Fixed commonjs require_definition in <IE9.

Brunch 1.3.4 (Jul 7, 2012)

  • Fixed bug with too fast compilations.

Brunch 1.3.3 (Jun 29, 2012)

  • Added node.js 0.8 and 0.9 support.
  • jsdom, required for brunch test can now be installed once for all apps via npm install -g jsdom. You'll need to have its parent dir in NODE_MODULES env variable.
  • Fixed compiled in timer and brunch generate bugs.

Brunch 1.3.2 (Jun 27, 2012)

  • Fixed brunch test on new projects.

Brunch 1.3.1 (Jun 22, 2012)

  • Config can now be in any language you use in app (e.g. livescript).
  • Added --reporter (-r) option to brunch test which allows to choose Mocha reporter.
  • Made require definition much easier for debugging.

Brunch 1.3.0 (Jun 19, 2012)

  • Brunch with Chaplin is now the default application skeleton, that will be created on brunch new <app>. Old one is still available with brunch new <app> -s github://brunch/simple-coffee-skeleton. Chaplin is an awesome set of classes on top of Backbone.js that makes making big webapps very simple.
  • Added testing support (thanks to Andreas Gerstmayr):
    • Mocha is used as test engine. It's a feature-rich, flexible and fun.
    • brunch test (or brunch t) is used to run all tests in CLI env.
    • test directory is now watched. Add 'javascripts/tests.js': /^test/ to config.javascripts.joinTo in config.coffee to compile them.
  • Improved command line API:
    • Added github://user/repo skeleton address schema support to brunch new.
    • Debug mode now has logger namespaces. Usage: BRUNCH_DEBUG=<ns> brunch <command> where <ns> is: watcher, writer, *.
  • Improved file watcher:
    • Vim backup files are now ignored by watcher.
    • Fixed watching of non-compiled files in app.
  • Improved config API:
    • Added support for config.server.base, which determines base URL from which to serve the app. The default value is empty string.
    • config.paths.ignored now doesn't need to check versus if file is config.coffee or package.json, it does it automatically in brunch code.
    • Fixed config.paths.ignored on windows.
    • config.paths.vendor is now an array, but it will be soon deprecated.
  • Changed onCompile plugin API. Now it receives an array of fs_utils.GeneratedFile. This makes it very rich and allows to build smarter reloaders. For example, the ones that reload browser tabs only on stylesheet change.
  • Semicolon is now added after every compiled vendor library because of some libs that break with brunch. Hello, Zepto!
  • Styles in vendor directory are now sorted correctly, before app files.
  • Only generated files that depend on changed in current compilation files are written now. Before, brunch was writing all files each time.

Brunch 1.2.2 (May 24, 2012)

  • Brunch now outputs compilation time.
  • Assets are copied one-by-one on change, instead of copying the whole assets directory. This improves watcher performance by about 25%+.
  • Disabled caching in built-in webserver.
  • Improved brunch generate:
    • Added --plural option to brunch generate. Plural version of generator name is used in controllers and collections. By default, brunch does pluralizing instead of you.
    • Added collection generator to brunch generate. It is not included in brunch g scaffold, because it's not needed most of the time.
    • Added collectionView generator to brunch generate for Chaplin users. It doesn't generate corresponding template.
  • If package.json or config.coffee were removed during the watching, brunch process will exit.
