Split up Gruntfile

问题

My Gruntfile is becoming pretty big right now and I want to split it up into multiple files. I've Googled and experimented a lot but I can't get it to work.

I want something like this:

Gruntfile.js

module.exports = function(grunt) {
  grunt.initConfig({
    concat: getConcatConfiguration()
  });
}

functions.js

function getConcatConfiguration() {
  // Do some stuff to generate and return configuration
}

How can I load functions.js into my Gruntfile.js?

How you can do it:

you need to export your concat configuration, and require it in your Gruntfile (basic node.js stuff)!

i would recommend putting all every taskspecific configuration into one file named after the configuration (in this case i named it concat.js).

Moreover i moved concat.js into a folder named grunt

Gruntfile.js

module.exports = function(grunt) {
  grunt.initConfig({
    concat: require('grunt/concat')(grunt);
  });
};

grunt/concat.js

module.exports = function getConcatConfiguration(grunt) {
  // Do some stuff to generate and return configuration
};

How you SHOULD do it:

there was already someone there who created a module named load-grunt-config. this does exactly what you want.

go ahead and put everything (as mentioned above) into separate files into a location of your choice (default folder ist grunt).

then your standard gruntfile should probably look like this:

module.exports = function(grunt) {
  require('load-grunt-config')(grunt);

  // define some alias tasks here
};
