Reusable banners for Node.js and Grunt.js projects.
Getting started
npm i banners --save
You may either use the banners as Lo-Dash templates, or as Lo-Dash mixins:
Use as templates
module { grunt; ...};
Use as mixins
Alternatively, you can add the banners as Lo-Dash mixins if you need to override the defaults:
module { // Mix the banners into Grunt's Lodash gruntutil_; grunt; ...};
Default properties
The included banners will attempt to use the following properties from
package.json
name
version
homepage
author.name
orauthor
licences.type
orlicence.type
orlicense
Also, unless overridden the copyright year is automatically calculated as the current year.
Usage Examples
mixins examples
Given we have:
If no parameters are passed to the mixin, it will attempt to automatically retrieve the correct values from package.json
:
//banner: '<%= _.bannerBlock() %>'// => "Jon Schlinkert"
To override these automatic values, you may pass a config object as a paramter:
Override copyright year
//banner: '<%= _.bannerBlock({year: "2013"}) %>'// => Copyright (c) 2013 Jon Schlinkert, contributors.
Override author
// Passed directly to the mixinbanner: '<%= _.bannerBlock({author: pkg.name}) %>'// => "grunt-readme" // Or as a custom metadata object in the Grunt configopts: author: 'Jon Schlinkert, Brian Woodward'banner: '<%= _.bannerBlock(opts) %>'// => "Jon Schlinkert, Brian Woodward" // Same as previous...opts: author: pkgnamebanner: '<%= _.bannerBlock(pkg.name) %>'// => "grunt-readme"
