taks

Minimalistic ES7 async/await based task runner.

Zero dependencies. It expects the consumer to provide all the necessary transforms, preserving full access to the original APIs and flexibility.

Usage

Create a task.js file at the root of your project:

const task = require('taks')

task('styles', async function () {
    await postcss('./entry.css', './dist/output.css')
})

task('scripts', async function () {
    await rollup('./entry.js', './dist/output.js')
})

task('build', async function () {
    task.parallel(['scripts', 'styles'])
})

task.run(process.argv[2])

Then run node task build to trigger the build task.

Transforms

For a more complete example showing more complex usage of flow control, and implemenntation of rollup, postcss and uglify transforms, see this sample task.js file.

This is the spiritual successor of flour and cake-async that originally used CoffeeScript and a bit of trickery to create async tasks back in 2013. Inspired by taskr.
