Package Exports

grunt-replace

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (grunt-replace) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Documentation

Full example usage

Put variable pattern in source

In our source file we define the place where variable will be injected (default prefix used by replacer is @@):

// build/manifest.appcache

CACHE MANIFEST
# @@timestamp

CACHE:

favicon.ico
index.html

NETWORK:
*

Define variables per file in gruntfile

//...
replace: {
  dist: {
    src: ['build/manifest.appcache'],
    dest: 'public',
    variables: {
      timestamp: '<%= grunt.template.today() %>'
    }
  }
}
//...

Explain please

In details, we have one source build/manifest.appcache and want to inject timestamp variable value and then put them in dest destination.

Usage variations

Replace over src file list (one target)

replace: {
  dist: {
    src: ['build/manifest.appcache', 'build/humans.txt'],
    dest: 'public',
    variables: {
      version: '<%= pkg.version %>',
      timestamp: '<%= grunt.template.today() %>'
    }
  }
}

Replace over both src with variables at replacer space (multiple target)

replace: {
  foo: {
    src: ['build/foo.txt'],
    dest: 'public'
  },
  dist: {
    src: ['build/manifest.appcache', 'build/humans.txt'],
    dest: 'public'
  }
},
// ...
replacer: {
  variables: {
    version: '<%= pkg.version %>',
    timestamp: '<%= grunt.template.today() %>'
  }
}

Define prefix for pattern lookup (in target)

replace: {
  dist: {
    src: ['build/manifest.appcache', 'build/humans.txt'],
    dest: 'public',
    variables: {
      version: '<%= pkg.version %>',
      timestamp: '<%= grunt.template.today() %>'
    }, 
    perfix: '@@'
  }
}

Define prefix for pattern lookup (in replacer space)

replace: {
  dist: {
    src: ['build/manifest.appcache', 'build/humans.txt'],
    dest: 'public'
}
// ...
replacer: {
  variables: {
    version: '<%= pkg.version %>',
    timestamp: '<%= grunt.template.today() %>'
  },
  perfix: '@@'
}

Options

// default
variables: {},
prefix: '@@'
