grunt Getting Started

安装grunt-cli shell

Note that installing grunt-cli does not install the Grunt task runner! The job of the Grunt CLI is simple: run the version of Grunt which has been installed next to a Gruntfile. This allows multiple versions of Grunt to be installed on the same machine simultaneously.

grunt-cli只是一个命令行shell，简单来说就是grunt命令。grunt-cli并不是真正的grunt task runner，真正的task runner是随项目安装的。因此，不同的项目可以使用不同的grunt版本。具体来说，在项目的根目录下，创建package.json，在其中配置grunt的dependency，然后执行npm install，就会得到grunt task runner

启动grunt构建

Assuming that the Grunt CLI has been installed and that the project has already been configured with apackage.json and a Gruntfile, it's very easy to start working with Grunt:

1. Change to the project's root directory.
2. Install project dependencies with npm install.
3. Run Grunt with grunt.

安装了grunt-cli之后，在项目根目录下准备好package.json和Gruntfile.js文件，再依次执行npm install和grunt即可

其中，npm install将下载安装项目依赖的包（当然必须包括grunt），grunt将读取Gruntfile.js，执行grunt构建。Gruntfile.js就相当于ant.xml

Gruntfile.js的组成

A Gruntfile is comprised of the following parts:

• The "wrapper" function
• Project and task configuration
• Loading Grunt plugins and tasks
• Custom tasks
