What is this?

Combine many files into one intelligently. Cakery has a simple DSL that allows you to glob directories and pass strings to an erb file. You can also add macros to a cakery pipeline. Think about it as a more generic version of Sprockets.

Quick Start

Combine many js files in the ./spec directory into one file

In your ruby code:

#Create a new recipe
recipe = Cakery.new('test.js.erb') do |r|
  #The << operator means to glob the directory into a string in @spec
  #The << operator accepts any unix style glob operator, e.g. /**/* for recursive
  r.spec << "./spec/*_spec.js"

  #The < operator means assignment
  r.debug < true
  r.foo < "bar"

  #You can also append to things that are already set
  r.foo < "bar2"
  r.foo << "./foo/*"
end

#Build using the current directory
cake = recipe.bake

#Get the concatenated result of the build
puts cake.src

Create a test.js.erb with:

<%= @spec %>

<!-- Announce whether we are in debug or release -->
<% if @debug %>
  console.log("Debug!");
<% end %>
  console.log("Release :(");
<% end %>

Macros

Macros receive a block of text and then do something with that text. A macro is a subclass of Cakery::Macro that implements def process(str) and returns a String. You can also stack macros.

In your ruby code:

#Create a new recipe
class MyMacro < Cakery::Macro
  def process str
    out = ""
    str.split("\n").each do |line|
      if line =~ /hello/
        out += line.gsub(/hello/, "goodbye")
      else
        out += line
      end
      out += "\n"
    end
    out
  end
end

recipe = Cakery.new('test.js.erb') do |r|
  #The << operator means to glob the directory into a string in @spec
  r.spec << MyMacro << "./spec/*_spec.js"
  r.spec << MyMacro < "hello"

  #Additionally, you can stack macros. Macros always use the << operator intra macros
  #The last operator may either be < or <<
  r.spec << MyMacro << MyOtherMacro < "Hello"
  r.spec << MyMacro << MyOtherMacro << "./spec/*_spec.js"

  #The < operator means assignment
  r.debug < true
  r.foo < "bar"
end

#Build using the current directory
cake = recipe.bake

#Get the concatenated result of the build
puts cake.src

Create a test.js.erb with:

<%= @spec %>

<!-- Announce whether we are in debug or release -->
<% if @debug %>
  console.log("Debug!");
<% end %>
  console.log("Release :(");
<% end %>
