Overview

Gulp-tmod is a powerful tool that integrates tmodjs with Gulp, simplifying the template compilation process for web developers. Designed with flexibility in mind, it offers several customization options to optimize your workflow. This plugin is especially useful for those already familiar with Gulp and looking to leverage tmodjs's templating capabilities.

Features

  • Flexible Output Control: By default, the output is set to false, preventing tmodjs from creating files. This allows developers to manage output more effectively using Gulp streams.
  • Custom Runtime Type: The runtime type can be easily customized through a string, with 'template.js' set as the default. This enhances file organization.
  • Template Base Path: The templateBase option allows you to specify the base path for your templates, defaulting to the current directory (__dirname).
  • Deprecation Updates: The plugin warns against deprecated practices like using minify and watch options, encouraging the use of gulp-uglify and gulp.watch.
  • Version Compatibility: With a significant update to version 2.0.0, users should be aware of breaking changes from version 1.0.0, ensuring smooth upgrades and feature implementations.
  • Issue Tracking Support: For troubleshooting and reporting issues, users are directed to the tmodjs issue tracker, ensuring that help and support are accessible.
