A wrapper for getify/JSON.minify as a grunt task
This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1
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-jsonmin --save-dev
One the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-jsonmin');
In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named jsonmin
to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig()
.
grunt.initConfig({
jsonmin: {
dev: {
options: {
stripWhitespace: true || false,
stripComments: true || false
},
files: {
"path/to/destination/file" : "path/to/source/file",
"path/to/another/destination" : [ "multiple/source/files", "are/supported", "as/an/array" ]
}
}
}
});
Type: Boolean
Default value: true
Option not currently supported - always strips comments

Type: Boolean
Default value: true
Option not currently supported - always strips comments
Strips comments (// ... \n
) from the specified json file/s
See the Gruntfile for the usage examples from the test cases
In lieu of a formal styleguide, take care to maintain the existing coding style. Add unit tests for any new or changed functionality. Lint and test your code using Grunt.
