slake-build-utils

This library only works with LiveScript 0.9.x. It is dead and has been replaced by the Whisper tool. Please use that instead

These utilities allow you to write moar concise Slakefiles, by providing some common build utilities as a reusable library.

Example

_    = require 'slake-build-utils'
fs   = _.fs
glob = require 'glob' .sync

defaults    = void
environment =
  package: require './package.json'


build = _.build \src (file, source) -->
  source |> _.compile defaults
         |> _.expand-macros environment
         |> fs.write (fs.as-js "lib/#file")
         |> _.minify defaults
         |> fs.write (fs.as-min "lib/#file") 


task \build 'Builds JavaScript files out of LiveScript ones.' ->
  fs.initialise \lib
  for file in glob '**/*.ls', cwd: 'src' => build file

Installation

Just grab it from NPM:

$ npm install -d slake-build-utils

Building

To compile everything from the source, you'll need LiveScript. Once you've installed that, just run the Slake build task, which should generate all the JavaScript files in the lib directory:

$ npm install -gd LiveScript
$ git clone git://github.com/killdream/slake-build-utils.git
$ cd slake-build-utils
$ npm install -d
$ slake build
