v3.0.0 Alpha 1

This release focuses on simplifying the package for UserFrosting 4 to improve maintainability. Features unsupported by UF4 are largely removed.

Added

• Raw configuration validation.
• Raw configuration merging.
• Path transformation with support for file replacement based on rule order (later rules superseed earlier ones).

Changed

• Functionality offered by results file has been replaced by ResultsMap property.
• Reads stream chunks (Vinyl instances) instead of directly from file system.
• As an internal gulp pipeline is no longer responsible for bundle generation, custom Transforms (e.g. gulp-concat-css) must be provided.

Removed

• Support for CSS sourcemaps (broken since 2.27.2).
• Specification of pre-minified files (minSrc).
• CoffeeScript, and LESS compilation (functionality can be implemented manually through provided Bundlers).
• Glob paths.
• Environment based build conditions (functionality can be implemented manually through provided Bundlers).
• Incremental/watched builds.
• Automatic HTML tag generation for results file.
• File copy support (use gulp.dest or an equivalent)
• Raw result file support.
• Removed dependency on gulp as per best practises.

Fixed

• Use isVinyl static method instead of fragile property check.
