About

This task removes all console logging statements from your source code.

Getting Started

Install this plugin with: grunt install grunt-remove-logging

Next, add this line to your project's grunt.js file:

grunt.loadNpmTasks("grunt-remove-logging");

Lastly, add the configuration settings (see below) to your grunt.js file.

Documentation

This task has two required properties, src and dest. src is the path to your source file and dest is the file this task will write to (relative to the grunt.js file). If this file already exists it will be overwritten.

An example configuration looks like this:

grunt.initConfig({
  removelogging: {
    dist: {
      src: "js/application.js",
      dest: "js/application-clean.js",

      options: {
        // see below for options. this is optional.
      }
    }
  }
});

Optional Configuration Properties

This plugin can be customized by specifying the following options:

• replaceWith: A value to replace console.logging statements with. This defaults to an empty string. If you use fancy statements like console && console.log("foo");, you may choose to specify a replaceWith value like 0; so that your scripts don't completely break.
• namespace: The name of object where logging methods are attached. Defaults to console.
• methods: An array of the method names to remove. Defaults to all the methods in the Firebug console API. This option is useful if you want to strip out all log methods, but keep warn.

Skipping Individual Statements

You can tell this task to keep specific logging statements by adding the comment /*RemoveLogging:skip*/ after the statement:

console.log("foo");/RemoveLogging:skip/

• or -

console.log("foo")/RemoveLogging:skip/;
