Install

npm install jit-grunt --save-dev

Usage

Removes grunt.loadNpmTasks, then add the require('jit-grunt')(grunt) instead. Only it.

module.exports = function (grunt) {
  require('jit-grunt')(grunt);

  grunt.initConfig({
    ...
  });

  grunt.registerTask('default', [...]);
}

Will automatically search for the plugin from the task name. Search in the following order:

  1. node_modules/grunt-contrib-task-name
  2. node_modules/grunt-task-name
  3. node_modules/task-name
clean           -> node_modules/grunt-contrib-clean
wget            -> node_modules/grunt-wget
mochaTest       -> node_modules/grunt-mocha-test
mocha_phantomjs -> node_modules/grunt-mocha-phantomjs
assemble        -> node_modules/assemble

Static mappings

Second parameter is static mappings.
It is used when there is a plugin that can not be resolved in the automatic mapping.

taskname: grunt-plugin-name

require('jit-grunt')(grunt, {
  sprite: 'grunt-spritesmith',
  foo: '@abc/grunt-foo',        // for private modules.
  bar: 'custom/bar.js'          // for custom tasks.
});
