Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~1.0.1

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-qx --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-qx');

The "qx" task

Overview

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

var qxpath = 'qooxdoo';
if ('QOOXDOO_PATH' in process.env) {
  qxpath = process.env.QOOXDOO_PATH;
}

grunt.initConfig({
  // Configuration to be run
  qx: {
    options: {
      appPath: '.',
      appClass: 'tweets.Application',
      appName: 'tweets',
      appTitle: 'tweets Demo',
      theme: 'tweets.theme.Theme',
      locales: ['en'],
      libraryHints: {
        'qooxdoo': qxpath + '/framework'
      }
    },

    source: {
      options: {
        target: 'source',
        outDir: 'build/source/',
        // Only available within the 'source' target.
        copyResources: true
      }
    },

    build: {
      options: {
        target: 'build',
        outDir: 'build/build/',
        // Only available within the 'build' target.
        minify: true
      }
    },
