I am trying to setup an angular app using Susy and Breakpoint instead of bootstrap.
I am using yeoman to run angular-generator. During the install, instead of saying Yes to bootstrap, i say No. This all goes well and my app runs in the browser fine with 'grunt serve'.
Next i run: bower install susy and bower install breakpoint - both install fine and i can see them in the bower_components folder.
I then import them by manually adding #import reference to main.scss like this:
// bower:scss
#import "../bower_components/susy/sass/_susy.scss";
#import "../bower_components/breakpoint/breakpoint/_breakpoint.scss";
// endbower
And also in the Gruntfile.js i have added require: 'susy' to compass like so:
compass: {
options: {
sassDir: '<%= yeoman.app %>/styles',
cssDir: '.tmp/styles',
generatedImagesDir: '.tmp/images/generated',
imagesDir: '<%= yeoman.app %>/images',
javascriptsDir: '<%= yeoman.app %>/scripts',
fontsDir: '<%= yeoman.app %>/styles/fonts',
importPath: '<%= yeoman.app %>/bower_components',
httpImagesPath: '/images',
httpGeneratedImagesPath: '/images/generated',
httpFontsPath: '/styles/fonts',
relativeAssets: false,
assetCacheBuster: false,
raw: 'Sass::Script::Number.precision = 10\n',
**require: 'susy'**
},
As outlined on the susy website: http://susydocs.oddbird.net/en/latest/install/
Ok, that's all well and good, but here's the problem.. because i have manually adding them to my main.scss file, everytime i stop and start the app, it deletes the #import references in my SCSS file. i don't know how to add them dynamically / or properly to the gruntfile.js so that they get compiled and saved permenantly. Each time i stop and start grunt, both imports are removed from main.scss leaving me with this:
// bower:scss
// end bower
Has anyone else had this same problem, if so what's the solution?
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks

Try moving the #import statements outside of the bower comments. So, instead of:
// bower:scss
#import "../bower_components/susy/sass/_susy.scss";
#import "../bower_components/breakpoint/breakpoint/_breakpoint.scss";
// endbower
try:
// bower:scss
// endbower
#import "../bower_components/susy/sass/_susy.scss";
#import "../bower_components/breakpoint/breakpoint/_breakpoint.scss";
That worked for me.

I am seriously missing some vital element on how to use the r.js optimiser. This is probably a trivial answer for many, but I can for the life of me not figure out the problem.
I've set up my environment using a grunt task to build an optimised file. The optimised file is built and dependencies seems to resolve correctly, but the code in my mainfile is never executed.
I've created a minimal environment to help you help me where there is pretty much only the Gruntfile, the mainfile and some dependencies (jquery, almond).
My project structure is:
require_this/
│
├──Gruntfile.coffee
│
└──src/
│
├──index.html
│
├──bower_components/(jquery,almond,requirejs)
│

Gruntfile:
module.exports = (grunt) ->
'use strict'
grunt.initConfig
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON 'package.json'

allFile: 'main.js'

index.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<!-- build:js main.js -->
<!-- The line below will be changed to <script src="main.js"></script> after processhtml -->
<script src="bower_components/requirejs/require.js" data-main="app/main.js"></script>
<!-- /build -->
</head>
<body>
</body>
main.js
require.config({
baseUrl: './',
paths: {
'jquery': 'bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.min'
}
});
define([
'jquery',
], function ($) {
console.log('changing html');
$('body').append('<div>Hello World</div>');
});
After completing the build task, my dist directory will contain index.html and main.js file.
The dist/main.js file will look like:
/*almond stuff*/
/*jquery stuff*/
require.config({
baseUrl: './',
paths: {
'jquery': 'bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.min'
}
});
define('main',[
'jquery',
], function ($) {
console.log('changing html');
$('body').append('<div>Hello World</div>');
});
Using a static fileserver against the uncompressed files works as expected. When using the build files, nothing is logged and nothing is added to the html even though the optimised file is loaded.
I suspect the answer is similar to Why is my RequireJS ignoring the code in my optimized main.js?, (some module name mismatch?) but I did not understand this well enough to fix my own problem.
Help is greatly appreciated!
The optimized version simply defines module main but it is never executed because it is never required. I'm not sure why is main executed in the non-optimized version.
The main.js could have rather looked like:
require.config({
baseUrl: './',
paths: {
'jquery': 'bower_components/jquery/dist/jquery.min'
}
});
// use require instead of define here
require([
'jquery',
], function ($) {
console.log('changing html');
$('body').append('<div>Hello World</div>');
});
the difference is that instead of defining a module this code requires jquery and passes it to the anonymous function, which is executed right away. It doesn't look like your app actually relied on that code being available as a module (the function doesn't return anything), so this change should be sufficient.
Hierarchy:
App
.tmp // temp files
app // source files
dist // dist files
So if I put the devcode:build before requirejs:
Files from "app/scripts" are processed and saved into ".tmp/scripts"
Requirejs will be pointed to load the ".tmp/scripts"
Then fails because bower_components are not found at "bower_components"; Of course, because bower_components are located in "app/bower_components"
If I inverse the order:
Requirejs removes the comments and devcode doesn't work
I will remove require.js optimizer and then my build is not ok. Should I pass another uglify over it.
Any better solution? (don't make the pc to copy bower_components all over again, or I might change the position up to the root?)
Thanks
Well I don't need the devcode grunt task becasue requirejs already comes with uglify2 which allows you to have the dist.options.uglify2.compress.global_defs
If you put DEBUG = false then this code will be removed in production mode.
dist: {
options: {
baseUrl : '<%= yeoman.app %>/scripts/',
name : 'main',
mainConfigFile : '<%= yeoman.app %>/scripts/main.js',
out : '.tmp/concat/scripts/main.js',
optimize : 'uglify2',
uglify2: {
//Example of a specialized config. If you are fine
//with the default options, no need to specify
//any of these properties.
output: {
beautify: false
},
compress: {
global_defs: {
DEBUG: false
}
},
warnings : true,
mangle : true
},
}
},
Im fairly new to the whole "front end workflow" stuff, and im trying to learn how to use grunt, and ive set up a task to minify my css but Grunt wont find any tasks whatsoever
this is my grunt file
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
min:{
dist:{
src: 'public/stylesheets/*.css',
dest: 'public/stylesheets/builds'
}
}
});
grunt.registerTask('default', ['min']);
}
minify is installed globally and in the project
ive tried running the default
grunt
and
grunt min
minify is in my package.json as
"minify": "~0.6.1",
Several potential issues here, all of which are likely causing the issues.
Problem: You are using minify which isn't a grunt plugin.
Solutions: npm install grunt-contrib-uglify and/or grunt-contrib-cssmin as makes sense for your needs.
Problem: You aren't loading any plugins/tasks...at least not in the code you posted.
Solution: Load tasks with grunt.loadNpmTasks before you register tasks. For example, if you use uglify and cssmin, you would need these lines before grunt.registerTask:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-uglify');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-cssmin');
Possible complete solution for this specific issue
1) npm install grunt-contrib-uglify
2) npm install grunt-contrib-cssmin
3) Update your gruntfile to resemble this.
You will need to edit the directories to match your project specifics...this is almost guaranteed to fail if you don't edit it first. See the docs for grunt-contrib-uglify or -cssmin for full details on options, paths, etc...:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
uglify: {
dist: {
files: {
'dist/<%= pkg.name %>.min.js': ['<%= concat.dist.dest %>']
}
}
},
cssmin: {
minify: {
expand: true,
cwd: 'release/css/',
src: ['*.css', '!*.min.css'],
dest: 'release/css/',
ext: '.min.css'
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-uglify');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-cssmin');
grunt.registerTask('default', ['uglify', 'cssmin']);
};
In my project I use yeoman (1.0.6). In a fresh webapp copy installed requirejs-text plugin to include template.html.
main.js
require.config({
paths: {
jquery: '../bower_components/jquery/jquery',
text: '../bower_components/requirejs-text/text'
}
});
require(['jquery', 'text!../templates.html'], function ($, templates) {
....
After building and optimizing a whole project, I expect to have generated templates.js file instead of templates.html ( added
"optimizeAllPluginResources: true" as described here )
Gruntfile.js ( won't paste all code, just optimization settings )
....
requirejs: {
dist: {
options: {
baseUrl: '<%= yeoman.app %>/scripts',
optimize: 'none',
optimizeAllPluginResources: true,
preserveLicenseComments: false,
useStrict: true,
wrap: true
}
}
},
....
After grunt 'build' task is completed I see that template.html content is in main.js and there is no generated templates.js file
After adding (also have to set in copy task to copy requirejs-text plugin form app to dir folder ):
stubModules: ['text'],
exclude: ['text!../templates.html'],
files are excluded as expected, but there is still no templates.js file. ( get an error as expected: XMLHttpRequest cannot load file:///...../dist/templates.html. Cross origin requests are only supported for HTTP. it works fine with local HTTP )
My question is: What settings am I missing to generate templates.js file with a requirejs optimizer?
p.s. googled, spent all day, tried more than wrote here.
Thank You in Advance
is anybody else using Grunt as build tool for the Ember web application and is experiencing the same behaviour as I do? At this time, I'm using the framework in version RC3 and I can use my build tool without hassle and import all necessary libraries, uglify and compress them and everything works like a charm.
Anyhow, at least since Ember RC5 I'm not able to use Grunt for building my application anymore as Ember would not recognize Handlebars anymore!. It's always complaining that Ember Handlebars requires Handlebars version 1.0.0-rc.4. Include a SCRIPT tag in the HTML HEAD linking to the Handlebars file before you link to Ember. and right afterwards it says Cannot read property 'COMPILER_REVISION' of undefined which leads me to the assumption that Ember is not recognizing the included Handlebars library.
I haven't changed anything in my app.js (the order of the libraries/frameworks is untouched) except the references to the js files (using Ember RC5/6 instead of RC3 and Handlebars RC4 instead of RC3). But it seems that something breaks the initialization of Ember.Handlebars since then...
Do I get something wrong here? Is there a solution out there so that I can continue using Grunt as build tool?

EDIT 2
I took the ember-1.0.0-rc.6.js and handlebars-1.0.0-rc.4.js files from the starter kit at the Ember.js website and tried to run the Grunt tasks on it. Here's what Chrome is telling me:
EDIT 3
Just in case if anybody cares, here's the link to the raised issue over at the Ember.js Github page: https://github.com/emberjs/ember.js/issues/2894
EDIT 4
Finally, the issue was identified to be a Handlebars inconsistency when dealing with global exports, like #Tao reported in his answer. Here's the link to the Issue on GitHub if you want to follow: https://github.com/wycats/handlebars.js/issues/539
It looks like this issue is being addressed in the next version of Handlebars: https://github.com/wycats/handlebars.js/issues/539 Stay tuned.
You have a mismatch in the version used to compile the Handlebars templates and the version included via the script tag.
If you are using grunt-contrib-handlebars, it uses the npm module handlebars to compile the the templates. The handlebars module/project is independent of Ember and has its own revisions that may or not be compatible with Ember.
To maintain compatibility with Handlebars Ember needs specific versions of handlebars which it is warning you about.
The tricky part here is you need to ensure that grunt-contrib-handlebars is forced to use that specific version of handlebars.
Solution 1: Use shrinkwrap to change grunt-contrib-handlebars's handlebars dependency version.
Solution 2: This is what I am currently using. I have switched to Emblem. The emblem grunt task asks for your handlebars file explicitly so you don't have to drop down to node sub dependency management. And your build includes the same file into your script tags, thus avoiding duplication/mismatch for future revisions.
Edit: After Gruntfile edit
Looking at the Gruntfile I don't see anything amiss. Looks like a standard build process, js -> neuter -> (if prod) -> uglify etc.
I think you need to try refreshing both emberjs and handlebars js files. Try using the files from the starter kit itself, those definitely work together.
And verify this for your index.html by looking at the unminified source in Chrome/Inspector. Handlebars has the revision numbers below the banner something like Handlebars.VERSION and Handlebars.COMPILER_REVISION. Match those with what you see in the ember.js file, somewhere below #submodule ember-handlebars-compiler in the Ember.assert.
