# grunt-contrib-coffee v1.0.0 [![Build Status: Linux](https://travis-ci.org/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-coffee.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-coffee) [![Build Status: Windows](https://ci.appveyor.com/api/projects/status/ns3waxwcw8ddcr3f/branch/master?svg=true)](https://ci.appveyor.com/project/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-coffee/branch/master)

> Compile CoffeeScript files to JavaScript



## Getting Started

If you haven't used [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/) before, be sure to check out the [Getting Started](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started) guide, as it explains how to create a [Gruntfile](http://gruntjs.com/sample-gruntfile) as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

```shell
npm install grunt-contrib-coffee --save-dev
```

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

```js
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-contrib-coffee');
```

*This plugin was designed to work with Grunt >= 0.4.x. If you're still using grunt v0.3.x it's strongly recommended that [you upgrade](http://gruntjs.com/upgrading-from-0.3-to-0.4), but in case you can't please use [v0.3.2](https://github.com/gruntjs/grunt-contrib-coffee/tree/grunt-0.3-stable).*



## Coffee task
_Run this task with the `grunt coffee` command._

Task targets, files and options may be specified according to the grunt [Configuring tasks](http://gruntjs.com/configuring-tasks) guide.
### Options

#### separator
Type: `String`  
Default: linefeed

Concatenated files will be joined on this string.

#### bare
Type: `Boolean`

Compile the JavaScript without the top-level function safety wrapper.

#### join
Type: `Boolean`  
Default: `false`

When compiling multiple .coffee files into a single .js file, concatenate first.

#### sourceMap
Type: `Boolean`  
Default: `false`

Compile JavaScript and create a .map file linking it to the CoffeeScript source. When compiling multiple .coffee files to a single .js file, concatenation occurs as though the 'join' option is enabled

#### sourceMapDir
Type: `String`  
Default: (same path as your compiled js files)

Generated source map files will be created here.

#### joinExt
Type: `String`  
Default: '.src.coffee'

Resulting extension when joining multiple CoffeeScript files.

### Usage Examples

```js
coffee: {
  compile: {
    files: {
      'path/to/result.js': 'path/to/source.coffee', // 1:1 compile
      'path/to/another.js': ['path/to/sources/*.coffee', 'path/to/more/*.coffee'] // compile and concat into single file
    }
  },

  compileBare: {
    options: {
      bare: true
    },
    files: {
      'path/to/result.js': 'path/to/source.coffee', // 1:1 compile
      'path/to/another.js': ['path/to/sources/*.coffee', 'path/to/more/*.coffee'] // compile and concat into single file
    }
  },

  compileJoined: {
    options: {
      join: true
    },
    files: {
      'path/to/result.js': 'path/to/source.coffee', // 1:1 compile, identical output to join = false
      'path/to/another.js': ['path/to/sources/*.coffee', 'path/to/more/*.coffee'] // concat then compile into single file
    }
  },

  compileWithMaps: {
    options: {
      sourceMap: true
    },
    files: {
      'path/to/result.js': 'path/to/source.coffee', // 1:1 compile
      'path/to/another.js': ['path/to/sources/*.coffee', 'path/to/more/*.coffee'] // concat then compile into single file
    }
  },

  compileWithMapsDir: {
    options: {
      sourceMap: true,
      sourceMapDir: 'path/to/maps/' // source map files will be created here
    },
    files: {
      'path/to/result.js': 'path/to/source.coffee'
    }
  },

  glob_to_multiple: {
    expand: true,
    flatten: true,
    cwd: 'path/to',
    src: ['*.coffee'],
    dest: 'path/to/dest/',
    ext: '.js'
  }

}
```

For more examples on how to use the `expand` API to manipulate the default dynamic path construction in the `glob_to_multiple` examples, see "[Building the files object dynamically](http://gruntjs.com/configuring-tasks#building-the-files-object-dynamically)" in the grunt wiki entry [Configuring Tasks](http://gruntjs.com/configuring-tasks).
