By typing this command, it will do some tasks to be inserted in file created. With the NPM installed, go to a command-line of your computer and type in root of your web project: “NPM init”. The objective of this article is not explains about Node.js, but I will do a summary: Node.js is a development platform and NPM is your package manager. Remember, Microsoft is investing too in Node.js, if you do not know, it is good to know from now on.Īfter installing Node.js, automatically it is installed the NPM. The first step is installing the Node.js, if you have doubts about the installation, read another article about the subject that I did before. In projects legacies, you must do some steps that I am going to show below. The configuration of Gulp in ASP.NET Core projects is zero, because it already comes installed. The philosophy of Gulp is simple, set up the tasks through your own code. Each plug-in has a specific responsibility. Do you want to validate your js? It also has another plug-in. For instance, do you want to decrease a file? It has a plug-in. Gulp alone almost does not do too much, because it needs plug-ins to augment the task desired. In your site,, it describes itself like “automatize and improve your workflow”. In the development of a site, many tasks are repeated and as explained above, Gulp can automate these tasks. That is just an example, your team may have more tasks.
A lot of these tasks are in relationship to deployment, such as decreasing files to improve site performance. Nevertheless, when it arrives close to the end, you notice that it still lacks many things, I am not talking about application functions, but of small things needed and done routinely. Have you ever had this thought? For instance, you create an application of the ground, the start is beautiful and it is following your manifest. This moment, I think again and change my mind. It is taking care of others parts that oftentimes are boring and painful.
Sometimes I have the thought that development is easy, focusing only on the code and hearing music is something nice. With Gulp, we going to learn to create tasks and integrate in the build of Visual Studio. Today's subject is about Gulp, what is and how use it in our projects. Microsoft, from Visual Studio 2015 to the new ASP.NET, decided to give us the liberty to use Node, Bower (I did an article about both) and Gulp, something that was not developed by Microsoft, but by the Node.js community. Somebody can criticize my argument, I don't think it's a big argument, but why can't we use tools that other communities are using and improving all the time and thus add to our community? Microsoft comes betting on this with your new stack of development. Its improvement and extension is limited by the ASP.NET community. Bundle is something fantastic and widely utilized, but I see a disadvantage, it is only used by those who develop in. Net platform, version 4.0 and 4.5, it knows that to decrease files as js, css and others, you must use Bundle. To those that are already used to using the.
