# grunt-includes [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/vanetix/grunt-includes.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/vanetix/grunt-includes)
***Requires grunt ~0.4.0***

A grunt task for including a file within another file (think php includes). *Circular* imports will break the recursive strategy. *All includes retain parent and child indentation*

## Getting Started
Install this grunt plugin next to your project's *Gruntfile.js* with: `npm install grunt-includes --save-dev`

Then add this line to your project's `Gruntfile.js`:

```javascript
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-includes');
```

An example site can be found at [grunt-includes-example](https://github.com/vanetix/grunt-includes-example).

## Options

#### flatten
Type: `String`
Default: `false`

Flatten all file sources to the destination directory. For example `source/file/path.html` will be shortened to `path.html`.

#### banner
Type: `String`
Default: `''`

String processed by `grunt.template.process`, and prepended to every compiled file.

#### duplicates
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `true`

Permits the same file to be included twice.

#### debug
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`

Enables debug mode compilation.

#### silent
Type: `Boolean`
Default: `false`

Silences file save success messages.

#### includePath
Type: `String`
Default: ``

Indicates the path to use when looking for included files. Instead of using relative path in the include statements, use includePath as base directory.

#### filenamePrefix
Type: `String`
Default: ``

Prepend the defined string to each included filename before reading them. Thus making possible to include "include_file.ext" by using directly "file.ext".

#### filenameSuffix
Type: `String`
Default: ``

Append the defined string to each included filename before reading them. Thus making possible to include "file.ext" by using directly "file".

#### templateFileRegexp
Type: `RegExp`
Default: `/\{\{\s?file\s?\}\}/`

Regular expression for matching and replacing template text. Example: `Start of template | {{file}} | End of template`.

#### template
Type: `String`

Template to be rendered into, `{{fileName}}` and `{{file}}` will be replaced with the filename and file contents respectively.

#### includeRegexp
Type: `RegExp`
Default: `/^(\s*)include\s+"(\S+)"\s*$/`
Matches: `include "some/file.html"`

Sets the regular expression used to find *include* statements.

A regex group is used to identify the important parts of the include statement.  When constructing your own regex, it can contain up to two groups (denoted by parentheses `()` in the regular expression):

 1. The indentation whitespace to be appended to the front of the included file's contents
 2. The file location

**All regular expressions used must contain at least one group.**  If only one group is used, it will be assumed to contain the file path.

## Usage

You can use this plugin to build html templates.

```javascript
includes: {
  files: {
    src: ['path/to/foo.html', 'path/to/bar.html'], // Source files
    dest: 'tmp', // Destination directory
    flatten: true,
    cwd: '.',
    options: {
      silent: true,
      banner: '<!-- I am a banner <% includes.files.dest %> -->'
    }
  }
}
```

Or even organize your static files.

```javascript
includes: {
  js: {
    options: {
      includeRegexp: /^\/\/\s*import\s+['"]?([^'"]+)['"]?\s*$/,
      duplicates: false,
      debug: true
    },
    files: [{
      cwd: 'assets/js/',
      src: '**/*.js',
      dest: 'assets/dist/js/',
    }],
  },
},
watch: {
  js: {
    files: ['assets/js/**/*.js'],
    tasks: ['includes:js', 'jshint']
  },
},
```

## Troubleshooting

 * **Grunt is copying the wrong files to the wrong locations.** If you're using `includes` as a [multitask](http://gruntjs.com/creating-tasks#multi-tasks) and are specifying a `files` object with `src`, `dest`, and `cwd`, you must supply it in an array using the [files array format](http://gruntjs.com/configuring-tasks#files-array-format). If you shorthand it by setting `files: {src: ... }`, Grunt will misinterpret it into the [files object format](http://gruntjs.com/configuring-tasks#files-object-format) and mysteriously copy artifacts into (potentially new) `src`, `dest`, and `cwd` directories. This appears to affect only multitask usage.

## Example
*index.html*
```html
<html>
<head>
  <title>Show me</title>
</head>
<body>
  include "content.html"
</body>
</html>
```
*content.html*
```html
<div class="content">
  <h1>Content</h1>
  <p>More content</p>
</div>
```
**Produces**
```html
<html>
<head>
  <title>Show me</title>
</head>
<body>
  <div class="content">
    <h1>Content</h1>
    <p>More content</p>
  </div>
</body>
</html>
```
