How to run Gulp tasks sequentially one after the other

Question

in the snippet like this:

gulp.task \"coffee\", ->
    gulp.src(\"src/server/**/*.coffee\")
        .pipe(coffee {bare: true}).on(\"error\",gutil.log)
           


        

Answer 1

The only good solution to this problem can be found in the gulp documentation:

var gulp = require('gulp');

// takes in a callback so the engine knows when it'll be done
gulp.task('one', function(cb) {
  // do stuff -- async or otherwise
  cb(err); // if err is not null and not undefined, the orchestration will stop, and 'two' will not run
});

// identifies a dependent task must be complete before this one begins
gulp.task('two', ['one'], function() {
  // task 'one' is done now
});

gulp.task('default', ['one', 'two']);
// alternatively: gulp.task('default', ['two']);
