I'm using grunt-contrib-htmlmin
plugin. This is how my Gruntfile.js
looks like:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
htmlmin: {
dist: {
options: {
removeComments: true,
collapseWhitespace: true
},
files: {
'/views/build/404.html': '/view/src/404.html'
}
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-htmlmin');
grunt.registerTask('default', ['htmlmin']);
};
Nothing special, really. My 404.html is also pretty simple, but even on simpler HTML
files, grunt doesn't work. For example, let's say take following HTML
file:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
It doesn't even work on that. What I get as a result in console is:
Running "htmlmin:dist" (htmlmin) task
Minified 0 files (1 failed)
Done, without errors.
Where can I see why it failed?
I tried really many things like removing options
and I also tried changing file
structure where I ended up with this:
files: {
expand: true,
cwd: 'views/src/',
src: '404.html',
build: 'views/build/404.html'
}
But that doesn't work either and error that I'm getting now is this:
Running "htmlmin:dist" (htmlmin) task
Warning: pattern.indexOf is not a function Use --force to continue.
Aborted due to warnings.
What am I doing wrong?
