# grunt-force-task
> Enable the force option for a specific task.
## Getting Started
This plugin requires Grunt.
If you haven't used [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/) before, be sure to check out the [Getting Started](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started) guide, as it explains how to create a [Gruntfile](http://gruntjs.com/sample-gruntfile) as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:
```shell
npm install grunt-force-task --save-dev
```
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
```js
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-force-task');
```
## The `force` task
The `force` task doesn't require any special configuration. To use it, just add `force` as the first argument when running other tasks.
Short example: `force:jshint`
### Example
The default task run the `jshint` task and then the `watch` task which can run `jshint` again. We use `force` to execute the first `jshint` so we doesn't break the flow and the watch task can executed for continuous development.
```js
grunt.initConfig({
jshint: { /* ... */ },
watch: {
all: {
files: '{,**/}*.js',
tasks: ['jshint']
}
}
});
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-jshint');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-watch');
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-force-task');
grunt.registerTask('default', [
'force:jshint',
'watch'
]);
```
