> A [Gulp](https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp) plugin to remove sections of code from files based on conditions

## Install

```sh

npm install gulp-remove-code --save-dev

```

## Usage

```js

const removeCode = require('gulp-remove-code');

gulp.src('./src/*.js')

  .pipe(removeCode({ noDevFeatures: true }))

  .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist/'))

gulp.src('./src/*.js')

  .pipe(removeCode({ noDevFeatures: true, commentStart: '/*', commentEnd: '*/' }))

  .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist/'))

gulp.src('./src/*.coffee')

  .pipe(removeCode({ noDevFeatures: true }))

  .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist/'))

```

## Examples

### Remove code from HTML files

```html



  

  
Running in sandbox environment

  


  Removing code is easy.



```


```js

const removeCode = require('gulp-remove-code');

gulp.src('./src/file.html')

  .pipe(removeCode({ production: true }))

  .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist'))

```

The plugin will remove the code inside the comments, as well as the comments.

### Remove code JavaScript files

```js

let value = JSON.stringify({key: 'value'});

//removeIf(production)

value = JSON.stringify({key: 'value', production: true}, null, 2);

//endRemoveIf(production)

//removeIf(!development)

value = JSON.stringify({key: 'value', development: false}, null, 2);

//endRemoveIf(!development)

```

```js

const removeCode = require('gulp-remove-code');

gulp.src('./src/file.js')

  .pipe(removeCode({ production: true }))

  .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist'))

```

The plugin will remove the code inside the comments, as well as the comments.

### Advanced usage

Starting with version 2 of this plugin, conditions can also be expressed using the `!` specifier.

```js

// Remove code using *!* (negated) conditions

//----------- gulpfile.js -----------

//

const removeCode = require('gulp-remove-code');

gulp.src('./src/file.js')

  .pipe(removeCode({ production: false }))

  .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist'))

//----------- app-file.js -----------

//

//removeIf(!production)

value = JSON.stringify({key: 'value', production: false}, null, 2);

//endRemoveIf(!production)

```
