Parameterize gulp tasks.
NOTE: REQUIRES GULP 4.0
See CHANGELOG for latest changes.
npm install --save-dev gulp-parameterized
You can accept parameters in a task by wrapping the task function in parameterized():
var parameterized = require('gulp-parameterized');
gulp.task('hello', parameterized(function(cb, params) {
console.log('hello ' + params.name + '!');
cb();
}));You can then pass parameters to a task on the command line:
$ gulp hello --name world
[23:43:51] Using gulpfile ~/hello-example/gulpfile.js
[23:43:51] Starting 'hello'...
hello world!
[23:43:51] Finished 'hello' after 1.98 ms
Use parameterized.series() and parameterized.parallel() instead of gulp.series() and gulp.parallel() if you want to call another task in your gulpfile and pass parameters to it:
gulp.task('hello-world', parameterized.series('hello --name world'));
gulp.task('hello-gulp', parameterized.series('hello --name gulp'));You can then invoke the hello-gulp task on the command line:
$ gulp hello-gulp
[23:49:38] Using gulpfile ~/hello-example/gulpfile.js
[23:49:38] Starting 'hello-gulp'...
[23:49:38] Starting 'hello'...
hello gulp!
[23:49:38] Finished 'hello' after 1.28 ms
[23:49:38] Finished 'hello-gulp' after 4.91 ms
