My Grunt file looks like:
"use strict"
module.exports = (grunt) ->
require("load-grunt-tasks") grunt
# Project configuration.
grunt.initConfig
appConfig:
# configurable paths
app: "app"
server: "server"
dist: "dist"
# ngMin
ngmin:
dist:
files: [
cwd: '<%= appConfig.app %>/scripts'
src: ['**/*.js']
dest: ['<%= appConfig.dist %>/scripts']
]
But when I run it, I get:
Running "ngmin:dist" (ngmin) task
Warning: Arguments to path.join must be strings Use --force to continue.
What am I doing wrong?
The destination dest should be a single folder, not a list:
dest: '<%= appConfig.dist() %>/scripts'
Not:
dest: [ '<%= appConfig.dist() %>/scripts' ]

I created a yeoman angular project that is not building properly. After I run run the production build (dist folder), I get this error:
Failed to load template: /bundles/craigslist/main.html
It seems to be copying the files, but since the html files get turned into a string that lives in dist/scripts.js, it throws an error when trying to find /bundles/craigslist/main.html
In my "/dist/scripts.js":
.config(["$routeProvider", function(a) {
a.when("/", {
templateUrl:"/bundles/craigslist/main.html",
controller:"CraigslistMainCtrl",
controllerAs:"craigslist_main_root"
})
Info if necessary:
instead of the pattern /scripts and /views, I use bundles that organize similar files together, regardless of extension. For example, I have a /bundles/craigslist folder, which has the craigslist templates, service and routes. I'm trying to adjust my Gruntfile.js to account for this.
This is my grunt file: https://gist.github.com/ivansifrim/f632832a4ba8f44bf828b5d88066a0ce
This is my folder structure:
I tried to apply what was discussed here Angular / grunt failed to load template without any luck.
Try :
usemin: {
html: ['<%= yeoman.dist %>/**/*.html'],
css: ['<%= yeoman.dist %>/styles/{,*/}*.css'],
js: ['<%= yeoman.dist %>/scripts/{,*/}*.js', '<%= yeoman.dist %>/bundles/{,*/}*.js'],
options: {
assetsDirs: [
'<%= yeoman.dist %>',
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/images',
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/styles'
],
patterns: {
js: [[/(images\/[^''""]*\.(png|jpg|jpeg|gif|webp|svg))/g, 'Replacing references to images']]
}
}
}
I have an angular app that I have scaffolded using yeoman.
When I am trying to build with grunt, no views directory is generated in dist/
This is how my GruntFile looks
htmlmin: {
dist: {
options: {
collapseWhitespace: false,
conservativeCollapse: false,
collapseBooleanAttributes: true,
removeCommentsFromCDATA: true
},
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: '<%= yeoman.dist %>',
src: ['*.html'],
dest: '<%= yeoman.dist %>'
}]
}
},
ngtemplates: {
dist: {
options: {
module: 'tweetSearchApp',
htmlmin: '<%= htmlmin.dist.options %>',
usemin: 'scripts/scripts.js'
},
cwd: '<%= yeoman.app %>',
src: 'views/{,*/}*.html',
dest: '.tmp/templateCache.js'
}
},
And this is how my grunt logs look like
Running "ngtemplates:dist" (ngtemplates) task
File .tmp/templateCache.js created.
>> Usemin has not created uglify.generated yet!
And
Running "usemin:html" (usemin) task
Replaced 2 references to assets
Running "usemin:css" (usemin) task
Replaced 2 references to assets
Running "usemin:js" (usemin) task
Replaced 2 references to assets
Running "htmlmin:dist" (htmlmin) task
Minified 2 files
But I still cannot see any views folder generated in my dist/ folder
Please help me with the configuration
Please have a look to this link
https://www.npmjs.com/package/grunt-angular-templates
Grunt is caching your HTML templates with $templateCache. That means all your Html files were included in the script*.js file which was generated in dist/scripts/script*.js.
That is why the views directory is not being generated in dist/
Make change in your gruntfile.js
htmlmin. files.src: ['.html', '{,/}*.html']and
copy.dist.files.src:[
'.{ico,png,txt}',
'.htaccess',
'.html',
'{,/}.html',
'images/{,/}.{webp}',
'styles/fonts/{,/}.*'
]
In this way it is working for me.
I have a directory:
- app/
- monday/
a.js
b.js
- tuesday/
a.js
b.js
And I configured as below in Grunt：
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: '<%= yeoman.app %>/',
src: ['**/*.js'],
dest: '<%= yeoman.dist %>/',
ext: '.js'
}]
Then Grunt will create a directory:
- build/
- monday/
a.js
b.js
- tuesday/
a.js
b.js
But how can I get the created directory structure like this:
- build/
- monday/
- wrap/
a.js
b.js
- tuesday/
- wrap/
a.js
b.js
I've tried
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: '<%= yeoman.app %>/',
src: ['**/*.js'],
dest: '<%= yeoman.dist %>/**/wrap',
ext: '.js'
}]
and ... But none of them worked.
I don't think this is possible with the current configuration as you want to interpose folders in a structured hierachy retrieved by "**".
But:
One always forgets that Grunt file is not only declarative as it may appear when you look at it but it is plain Javascript so you can write a function to grab the src (like src: [getMySourceFiles()]) and you can write another function to return the dest value: dest: placeThemHere().
Moreover, you can write a function that will return the entire config object for copy or even more sections.
This way you have the power to play with it in a way that is as complex as you can handle.
Hope this helps anyone remember that grunt is actually javascript, not json.
I have been stuck with anjularjs ui-grid, it's showing some Chinese symbols in place of icons. After digging about it I get to know I have to use some font-files provided by ui-grid team, I downloaded the files and included them into my project but still m not getting the correct icon images and fonts, how to include these files into the project?
These are the file names which I downloaded and included in my project:
1 ui-grid.eot
2 ui-grid.svg
3 ui-grid.ttf
4 ui-grid.woff
I had the same issue, now it is rectified as follows
I updated the Ui-grid with either latest stable version(v3.0.0-rc.3) or the unstable version(v3.0.0-rc.16).
then
place the font files all in the same directory as your ui-grid.css lives, like this
app
- lib
- ui-grid.js
- ui-grid.css
- ui-grid.eot
- ui-grid.svg
- ui-grid.ttf
- ui-grid.woff
or
you can open the CSS and change the file path to the relative location in #font-face url's
check here
http://ui-grid.info/docs/#/tutorial/116_fonts_and_installation
I'm using Grunt I had to add
copy: {
dist: {
files: [
...
//font di ui grid
{
expand: true,
flatten: true,
dest: 'dist/styles/',
src: ['bower_components/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.ttf',
'bower_components/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.woff',
'bower_components/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.eot',
'bower_components/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.svg'
]
}
]},
to the Gruntfile.js In order to copy the ui-grid fonts in the style directory.
With Gulp you can add this task into build.js file
gulp.task('copyfonts', function() {
gulp.src('./bower_components/angular-ui-grid/**/*.{ttf,woff}')
.pipe(gulp.dest(path.join(conf.paths.dist, '/styles/')));
});
I'm using Gulp and I added a fonts:dev task to be added as a dep to my serve task:
gulp.task('fonts:dev', function () {
return gulp.src($.mainBowerFiles())
.pipe($.filter('**/*.{eot,svg,ttf,woff,woff2}'))
.pipe($.flatten())
.pipe(gulp.dest(options.tmp + '/serve/fonts/'));
});
This solved it for me. More context here.
I know it's a little bit late but I just want to share my answer. I use bower to install ui-grid and gruntjs to load files. Its almost the same with Panciz answer but change it to *.{ttf,woff,eot,svg} for getting all font files needed without specifying them.
add this in copy:
copy: {
dist: {
files: [
//other files here
, {
expand: true,
flatten: true,
cwd: '<%= yeoman.client %>',
dest: '<%= yeoman.dist %>/public/app', //change destination base to your file structure
src: [
'*.{ttf,woff,eot,svg}',
'bower_components/angular-ui-grid/*',
]
}
]
}
}
If you install ui grid using 'bower install' than the files should be installed in their proper location. The problem we had is that we're using ui-router, which requires all requests to be rewritten to index.html. We had to add the font extensions to our rewrite rules so that Angular could load them. We're using a middleware plugin for running locally. On Apache/Nginx server the concept is the same.
middleware: function (connect) {
return [
modRewrite(['!\\.html|\\.js|\\.svg|\\.woff|\\.ttf|\\.eot|\\.css|\\.png$ /index.html [L]']),
connect.static('.tmp'),
connect().use(
'/bower_components',
connect.static('./bower_components')
),
connect().use(
'/app/styles',
connect.static('./app/styles')
),
connect.static(appConfig.app)
];
}
In my project i usually use grunt to put fonts files in build/assets directory and vendors files in build/vendor/lib-name directory.
But ui-grid.css have relative path to get font file and doesn't have any mode to configure a different location without modify your css file. But i think that it's not a good idea because then you need to change this file for each vendor update.
So you can setup your grunt to put this particular font with your vendor files too.
This is your build.config.js:
module.exports = {
...
vendor_files: {
...
js: [
'vendor/angular/bundle.min.js',
'vendor/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.min.js',
],
css: [
'vendor/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.min.css',
],
uigrid_fonts: [
'vendor/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.woff',
'vendor/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.ttf',
'vendor/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.eot',
'vendor/angular-ui-grid/ui-grid.svg',
],
...
}
...
}
Then on your Gruntfile.js you can manage this file:
module.exports = function (grunt) {
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-copy');
//.. other require
var userConfig = require('./build.config.js');
var taskConfig = {
copy: {
//.. other copy task
build_vendor_fonts: {
files: [
{
src: [ '<%= vendor_files.fonts %>' ],
dest: '<%= build_dir %>/assets/fonts/',
cwd: '.',
expand: true,
flatten: true
}
]
},
build_uigrid_font: {
files: [
{
src: [ '<%= vendor_files.uigrid_fonts %>' ],
dest: '<%= build_dir %>/',
cwd: '.',
expand: true,
}
]
},
build_vendor_css: {
files: [
{
src: [ '<%= vendor_files.css %>' ],
dest: '<%= build_dir %>/',
cwd: '.',
expand: true
}
]
},
build_appjs: {
files: [
{
src: [ '<%= app_files.js %>' ],
dest: '<%= build_dir %>/',
cwd: '.',
expand: true
}
]
},
build_vendorjs: {
files: [
{
src: [ '<%= vendor_files.js %>' ],
dest: '<%= build_dir %>/',
cwd: '.',
expand: true
}
]
}
},
};
grunt.registerTask('build', [
'clean',
'concat:build_css',
'copy:build_vendor_fonts',
'copy:build_uigrid_font',
'copy:build_vendor_css',
'copy:build_appjs',
'copy:build_vendorjs',
'index:build'
]);
//..
}
Pretty much the same answer as Panciz and Vicruz, but I specified the relevant directories slightly differently:
copy: {
dist: {
files: [{
// other files here...
}, {
expand : true,
cwd : 'bower_components/angular-ui-grid',
dest : '<%= yeoman.dist %>/styles',
src : ['*.eot','*.svg','*.ttf','*.woff']
}]
},
When I grunt build my AngularJS app grunt-rev has a problem dealing with the fonts. It will create the font folders just fine but does not place any fonts in them. Here is what it shows me.
Running "rev:dist" (rev) task
dist/scripts/scripts.js >> a3e641ec.scripts.js
dist/styles/main.css >> 970b8797.main.css
Warning: Unable to read "dist/fonts/Aller" file (Error code: EISDIR). Use --force to continue.
grunt-rev in my Gruntfile.js
rev: {
dist: {
files: {
src: [
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/scripts/{,*/}*.js',
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/styles/{,*/}*.css',
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/images/{,*/}*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp,svg}',
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/styles/fonts/*'
]
}
}
}
How to fix this?
I finally solved this problem by using the double asterisk ** method to match all the sub directories recursively. I don't know why that method was not used in my original Gruntfile.js. Instead it used the {,*/}* which did not behave recursively for some reason. So here is my new rev object in my Gruntfile.js
rev: {
dist: {
files: {
src: [
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/scripts/**/*.js',
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/styles/**/*.css',
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/images/**/*.{png,jpg,jpeg,gif,webp,svg}',
'<%= yeoman.dist %>/fonts/**/*.ttf'
]
}
}
},
I was having the same problem. They have a bug about it in version 0.1.0.
A workaround is to specify a file extension.
Before:
rev: {
dist: {
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: '<%= config.dist %>/',
src: [
'images/**/*'
]
}]
}
}
After:
rev: {
dist: {
files: [{
expand: true,
cwd: '<%= config.dist %>/',
src: [
'images/**/*.{gif,jpeg,jpg,png}'
]
}]
}
}
