undertaker-registry

Default registry in gulp 4.

Usage

var gulp = require('gulp');
var UndertakerRegistry = require('undertaker-registry');

var registry = new UndertakerRegistry();

gulp.registry(registry);

API

new UndertakerRegistry([options])

Constructor for the default registry. Inherit from this constructor to build custom registries.

init(taker)

No-op method that receives the undertaker instance. Useful to set pre-defined tasks using the undertaker.task(taskName, fn) method. Custom registries can override this method when inheriting from this default registry.

get(taskName) => Function

Returns the task with that name or undefined if no task is registered with that name. Useful for custom task storage. Custom registries can override this method when inheriting from this default registry.

set(taskName, fn) => [Function]

Adds a task to the registry. If set modifies a task, it should return the new task so Undertaker can properly maintain metadata for the task. Useful for adding custom behavior to every task as it is registered in the system. Custom registries can override this method when inheriting from this default registry.

tasks() => Object

Returns an object listing all tasks in the registry. Necessary to override if the get method is overridden for custom task storage. Custom registries can override this when when inheriting from this default registry.

Custom Registries

Custom registries are constructor functions allowing you to pre-define/share tasks or add custom functionality to your registries.

A registry's prototype should define:

• init(taker): receives the undertaker instance to set pre-defined tasks using the task(taskName, fn) method.
• get(taskName): returns the task with that name or undefined if no task is registered with that name.
• set(taskName, fn): add task to the registry. If set modifies a task, it should return the new task.
• tasks(): returns an object listing all tasks in the registry.

You should not call these functions yourself; leave that to Undertaker, so it can keep its metadata consistent.

The easiest way to create a custom registry is to inherit from undertaker-registry:

var util = require('util');

var DefaultRegistry = require('undertaker-registry');

function MyRegistry() {
  DefaultRegistry.call(this);
}

util.inherits(MyRegistry, DefaultRegistry);

module.exports = MyRegistry;

Sharing tasks

To share common tasks with all your projects, you can expose an init method on the registry prototype and it will receive the Undertaker instance as the only argument. You can then use undertaker.task(name, fn) to register pre-defined tasks.

For example you might want to share a clean task:

var fs = require('fs');
var util = require('util');

var DefaultRegistry = require('undertaker-registry');
var del = require('del');

function CommonRegistry(opts) {
  DefaultRegistry.call(this);

  opts = opts || {};

  this.buildDir = opts.buildDir || './build';
}

util.inherits(CommonRegistry, DefaultRegistry);

CommonRegistry.prototype.init = function (takerInst) {
  var buildDir = this.buildDir;
  var exists = fs.existsSync(buildDir);

  if (exists) {
    throw new Error(
      'Cannot initialize common tasks. ' + buildDir + ' directory exists.'
    );
  }

  takerInst.task('clean', function () {
    return del([buildDir]);
  });
};

module.exports = CommonRegistry;

Then to use it in a project:

var Undertaker = require('undertaker');
var CommonRegistry = require('myorg-common-tasks');

var taker = new Undertaker(CommonRegistry({ buildDir: '/dist' }));

taker.task(
  'build',
  taker.series('clean', function build(cb) {
    // do things
    cb();
  })
);

Sharing Functionalities

By controlling how tasks are added to the registry, you can decorate them.

For example if you wanted all tasks to share some data, you can use a custom registry to bind them to that data. Be sure to return the altered task, as per the description of registry methods above:

var util = require('util');

var Undertaker = require('undertaker');
var DefaultRegistry = require('undertaker-registry');

// Some task defined somewhere else
var BuildRegistry = require('./build.js');
var ServeRegistry = require('./serve.js');

function ConfigRegistry(config) {
  DefaultRegistry.call(this);
  this.config = config;
}

util.inherits(ConfigRegistry, DefaultRegistry);

ConfigRegistry.prototype.set = function set(name, fn) {
  // The `DefaultRegistry` uses `this._tasks` for storage.
  var task = (this._tasks[name] = fn.bind(this.config));
  return task;
};

var taker = new Undertaker();

taker.registry(new BuildRegistry());
taker.registry(new ServeRegistry());

// `taker.registry` will reset each task in the registry with
// `ConfigRegistry.prototype.set` which will bind them to the config object.
taker.registry(
  new ConfigRegistry({
    src: './src',
    build: './build',
    bindTo: '0.0.0.0:8888',
  })
);

taker.task(
  'default',
  taker.series('clean', 'build', 'serve', function (cb) {
    console.log('Server bind to ' + this.bindTo);
    console.log('Serving' + this.build);
    cb();
  })
);
