Modules for building UI5 projects
Part of the UI5 Build and Development Tooling
This is an alpha release!
The UI5 Build and Development Tooling described here is not intended for productive use yet. Breaking changes are to be expected.
Types define how a project can be configured and how it is built. A type orchestrates a set of tasks and defines the order in which they get applied during build phase. Furthermore, it takes care of formatting and validating the project-specific configuration.
Currently, the following types are defined:
- Application
- Library
The project type can be defined as part of a projects root folder.
Tasks are specific build steps to be executed during build phase.
They are responsible for collecting resources which can be modified by a processor. A task configures one or more processors and supplies them with the collected resources. After the respective processor processed the resources, the task is able to continue with its workflow.
Available tasks are listed here.
Processors work with provided resources. They contain the actual build step logic to apply specific modifications to supplied resources, or to make use of the resources' content to create new resources out of that.
Processors can be implemented generically. The string replacer is an example for that. Since string replacement is a common build step, it can be useful in different contexts, e.g. code, version, date, and copyright replacement. A concrete replacement operation could be achieved by passing a custom configuration to the processor. This way, multiple tasks can make use of the same processor to achieve their build step.
Available processors are listed here.
JavaScript port of the "legacy" Maven/Java based bundle tooling.
