polybuild is deprecated!
Please use the Polymer CLI or polymer-build instead.
Polybuild
An all-in-one build tool for Polymer apps
Polybuild combines vulcanize, crisper, and polyclean into one easy to use solution for optimizing Polymer applications for production.
Polybuild exposes a gulp plugin, and a small command line tool to fit your build environment.
Command Line Tool
Install:
npm install -g polybuild
Use:
polybuild index.html
Output: index.build.html
and index.build.js
The equivalent command line usage is:
vulcanize --inline-css --inline-scripts --strip-comments index.html | polyclean | crisper --html index.build.html --js index.build.js
Gulp Plugin
Install:
npm install polybuild
Use in gulpfile.js
:
var gulp = require('gulp');
var polybuild = require('polybuild');
gulp.task('build', function() {
return gulp.src('index.html')
.pipe(polybuild())
.pipe(gulp.dest('.'))
;
})
Output: index.build.html
and index.build.js
The equivalent gulp
pipeline is found in index.js
Options
PolyBuild has two options: "maximum crush" and "suffix". First option affects whether the output javascript is minified, or only has whitespace removed, second option needed if you want change default "build" suffix.
If you have a more advanced use case than is provided, please copy the equivalent portions of the command line or gulp internals as a starting point.
Example of options usage on the command line with flags:
polybuild index.html --maximum-crush --suffix customsuffix
which will output the file index.customsuffix.html
You can use options in gulp, like in this example
//...
.pipe(polybuild({maximumCrush: true, suffix: 'build'})
//...
