i had installed npm and grunt and then installed grunt-contrib-compass.
but when i run grunt. i have this error
Running “compass:dist” (compass) task
Warning: not found: compass Use –force to continue.
Aborted due to warnings
and this my gruntfile.js
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
compass: {
dist: {
options: {
sassDir: 'sass',
cssDir: 'css'
}
}
},
watch: {
css: {
files: '**/*.scss',
tasks: ['compass']
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-compass');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.registerTask('default',['watch']);
}
You need to install the Compass Ruby gem, as detailed here. Basically you need to have installed Ruby, and then using that you can install the Compass gem and grunt-contrib-compass should work

I am using a foundation/jekyll boilerplate.
Whenever I run grunt, it only returns the following in my style.css
[object Object]
It should have processed the scss from the foundation files.
Here is the gruntfile.js
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
sass: {
options: {
includePaths: ['bower_components/foundation/scss']
},
dist: {
options: {
outputStyle: 'compressed'
},
files: {
'css/style.css': 'scss/style.scss'
}
}
},
watch: {
grunt: { files: ['Gruntfile.js'] },
sass: {
files: 'scss/**/*.scss',
tasks: ['sass']
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-sass');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.registerTask('build', ['sass']);
grunt.registerTask('default', ['build','watch']);
}
The only thing I had to do was npm install node-sass.
I ran grunt and the only code in my style.css was [object, Object]
edit: ran npm install grunt-sass,
css now compiles nicely.
It seems that there's an error with recent version of node-sass where in error situations node-sass pipes [object Object] instead of failing and showing a proper stacktrace.
Your Gruntfile worked fine for me in a reduced test case, so validate your scss files before running the task.
Also, update to the newest node-sass/grunt-sass with npm install node-sass -save-dev, as it doesn't seem to behave that way (but throws the proper error instead).
I was trying to figure out why my JS wasn't being compiled by grunt, so I edited the gruntfile.js. And then grunt watch stopped. I've tried reverting the file with git and I've npm installed to try to see if that might help... does anyone see a problem with my gruntfile? Or perhaps have another possible solution?
module.exports = function(grunt){
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-uglify');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-compass');
grunt.initConfig({
uglify:{
my_target: {
files: {
'js/script.js': ['_/js/*.js']
}//files
}//target
},//uglify
compass:{
dev:{
options: {
config:'config.rb'
}//options
}//dev
}, //compass
watch: {
options:{ livereload: true },
scripts: {
files: ['_/js/*.js'],
tasks: ['uglify']
},
sass: {
files:['_/sass/*.scss'],
tasks: ['compass:dev']
}//sass
//scripts
// html: {
// files: ['*.html']
// } //for auto refresh browser, need script on html as well.
}//watch
})//initConfig
grunt.registerTask('default','watch') //run gunt and wait for changes
}//exports
and here are my package.json dependencies
"dependencies" : {
"grunt" : "~0.4.5",
"grunt-contrib-watch" : "~0.6.1",
"grunt-contrib-compass" : "~1.0.3",
"grunt-contrib-uglify" : "~0.9.1",
"matchdep" : "~0.3.0"
}
I have both files: app.js which starts the http server, and main.js which is compiled by browserify and used in html as
So I have a Grunt configured with forever, browserify and watch.
I want that on app.js chance, the http must be restarted (via forever:restart), and when main.js changes, the build must be browserified (via browserify)
so, when i run grunt, says forever:start does not exist, any help ?
$ grunt
Warning: Task "forever:server1:start" not found. Use --force to continue.
this is my gruntfile:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
// Project configuration.
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
browserify: {
dist: {
files: {
'examples/public/js/module.js': ['examples/main.js']
}
}
},
forever: {
server1: {
options: {
index: 'examples/app.js',
logDir: 'examples/logs'
}
}
},
watch: {
app: {
files: ['examples/*.js', 'examples/templates/*' ],
tasks: ['forever:server1:start']
},
web: {
files: ['examples/*.js', 'examples/templates/*' ],
tasks: ['browserify']
},
}
});
//grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-uglify');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-browserify');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
// Default task(s).
grunt.registerTask('default', ['browserify', 'forever:server1:start']);
grunt.registerTask('restart', ['browserify', 'forever:server1:restart']);
};
The task isn't found because you're missing grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-forever'). You might also find more success using something like nodemon instead of grunt.
I'd like to create a task to watch all my scss files. And I used "grunt-contrib-watch" and "grunt-contrib-sass" but it doesn't work.
My files and my directories : http://glui.me/?i=pz7vmwu9cfgbzt3/2013-11-28_at_12.46_2x.png/
My error :
MacBook-Pro-of-username:src username:src$ grunt
Running "cssmin:minify" (cssmin) task
File lib/stylesheets/bottom.min.css created.
Running "watch" task
Waiting...Bus error: 10
My grunt code :
module.exports = function(grunt){
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
sass: {
dist: {
files: {
'lib/stylesheets/bottom.css' : 'lib/sass/bottom.scss'
}
}
},
watch: {
css: {
files: '**/*.scss',
tasks: ['sass']
}
},
cssmin: {
minify: {

}]
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-sass');
grunt.registerTask('default', ['watch']);
}
There was an issue with node <= 0.10.20 and OSX mavericks. Upgrade node.js to the latest and it should fix the issue. See https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-watch/issues/204
This happens with whatever task I'm trying to run.
When running with --verbose flag I'm getting:
Initializing Command-line options: --verbose
Reading "Gruntfile.js" Gruntfile...OK
Registering Gruntfile tasks. Loading "Gruntfile.js" tasks...OK
No tasks were registered or unregistered.
This is the Gruntfile:
module.export = function (grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
pkg: grunt.file.readJSON('package.json'),
karma_coveralls: {
options: {
coverage_dir: 'coverage'
}
},
jshint: {
files: ['app/js/**/*.js', 'Gruntfile.js'],
options: grunt.file.readJSON('.jshintrc')
},
concat: {
options: {
seperator: ';'
},
dist: {
src: ['app/js/**/*.js'],
dest: 'dist/app/js/<%pkg.name%>.js'
}
},
exec: {
instrument: {
cmd: function () {
return 'istanbul instrument app/js -o app/instrumentjs';
}
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-karma-coveralls');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-jshint');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-concat');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.registerTask('coverage', ['coveralls']);
grunt.registerTask('default', ['jshint']);
grunt.registerTask('instrument', ['exec: instrument']);
grunt.registerTask('concat', ['concat']);
};
Any Idea what am I doing wrong?
grunt versions:
grunt-cli v0.1.9
grunt v0.4.1
In your Gruntfile, module.export should be module.exports.
Check the path of /node modules while calling grunt.loadNpmTasks in Gruntfile.js
