gulp-texttojs

Converts text files into JavaScript.

Install

Install with npm

$ npm install --save-dev gulp-texttojs

Description

Converts a text file (css, html, etc) into a javascript file, which by default is exported as an amd module, but can be tweaked to do anything you want with the file as a javascript string.

Usage

var gulp = require('gulp'),
    texttojs = require('gulp-texttojs');

gulp.task('default', function() {
    return gulp.src('src/*.css')
        .pipe(texttojs()
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});

Input (file.txt):

Hello, "world!"

Output (file.txt.js):

define([], function() { return "Hello, \"world!\""; });

API

texttojs(options)

options.template

Type: String or Function Default: define([], function() { return <%= content %>; });

You can use <%= content %> to place the text file string content. The content will include quotes around the escaped content. By default the file is converted into an AMD export. The function will be passed the current stream file object and is expected to return the template string.

options.ext

Type: 'String' Default: .js

options.isExtensionAppended

Type: 'Boolean' Default: true

If set to true, the extension is appended to the filename. Otherwise the current extension is replaced with the given ext value if provided.
