Using autoprefixer in grunt for the first time - gruntjs

Question

I have the current version of npm installed and things seem to be OK:
The autoprefixer loads up just fine :
I created a file 'Grunfile.js'in the local project folder:
I am running this on windows 8.1
Where to from here? How do I tell grunt to check the file? How do I call the function from the command line ? Or do I call the function from the command line?

Answer 1

Within your directory you'll need to have 2 files, the package.json and the Gruntfile.js. To create a package.json file run the command npm init.
Next, you need to add the grunt-autoprefixer task to your package.json file which you can do by running npm install grunt-autoprefixer --save-dev.
Then, within the Gruntfile.js it should look something like this:
module.exports = function(grunt) {
grunt.initConfig({
autoprefixer: {
options: {
// Task-specific options go here.
},
your_target: {
// Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
},
},
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-autoprefixer');
grunt.registerTask('default', [
'autoprefixer'
]);
};
