grunt-todos

Grunt plugin for finding todos/fixmes in code

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.0

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-todos --save-dev

One the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-todos');

The "todos" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named todos to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  todos: {
    options: {
      // Task-specific options go here.
    },
    your_target: {
      // Target-specific file lists and/or options go here.
    },
  },
})

Options

options.priorities

Type: Object Default value: { low : /TODO/, med : /FIXME/, high : null }

An object that specifies what the various priorities are for the target. High will add to the errorCount.

options.verbose

Type: Boolean Default value: true

Verbose mode will cause the plugin to report on every file, regardless if there are actual lines to report or not. If set to false, only files with todos will be mentioned.

Usage Examples

Default Options

In this example, the default options are used to find all the TODOs and FIXMEs in the code.

grunt.initConfig({
  todos: {
    options: {},
    src : ['src/testing', 'src/123']
  }
})

Custom Options

In this example, custom options are used to escalate TODO to med priority.

grunt.initConfig({
  todos: {
    options: {
        priorities : {
            low : null,
            med : /(TODO|FIXME)/
        }
    },
    src : ['src/testing', 'src/123']
  }
})

In this example, we want minimize the total output by setting verbose to false.

grunt.initConfig({
  todos: {
    options: {
        verbose: false
    },
    src : ['src/**/*.js']
  }
})
