Syncs file deletion from one directory to another.
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-delete-sync --save-dev
Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-delete-sync');
This task looks through the files defined in src
, if they do not exist in the syncWith
directory, they are removed.
Example:
delete_sync: {
dist: {
cwd: 'targetDir',
src: ['**', '!**/*.css'],
syncWith: 'src'
}
},
