# lektor-gulp #

This plugin for [Lektor CMS](https://www.getlektor.com) adds [gulp](http://gulpjs.com) support to projects. When enabled with the `-f gulp` flag it runs `npm install` and then the gulp `default` or `watch` tasks as they are defined into your own `gulpfile.js`.

The general documentation about Lektor plugins is [here](https://www.getlektor.com/docs/plugins/).

## lektor build ##

The command `lektor build -f gulp` runs the __`default`__ gulp task, for example defined as something like:

```javascipt
gulp.task('build', ['clean', 'copy', 'js', 'css', 'imagemin'], () => { });
gulp.task('default', ['build'], () => { });
```

In the above example the `default` task points to a `build` task, which is usually composed by several other gulp tasks, etc.

## lektor server ##

The command `lektor server -f gulp` runs the Lektor embedded server on http://localhost:5000, starting a gulp __`watch`__ task in background. For example, you can define something such as:

```javascript
gulp.task('watch', () => {
gulp.watch('lib/js/**/*.js', ['js']);
gulp.watch('lib/css/**/*.css', ['css']);
});
```

In the above example, each time one touches Javascript or CSS files in the `lib/` folder then assets could be minified, concatenated and copied into the standard `assets/static/` lektor folder, or whatever is defined into your own `gulpfile.js`.

## Credits ##

This plugin is based on the official [Webpack plugin](https://github.com/lektor/lektor-webpack-support) with very little differences.
