Overview

A group of Guard plugins. There are two reasons why you want to group your Guard plugins:

  • You can start only certain groups from the command line by passing the --group option to guard start.
  • Abort task execution chain on failure within a group with the :halt_on_fail option.

Examples:

Group that aborts on failure


group :frontend, halt_on_fail: true do
  guard 'coffeescript', input: 'spec/coffeescripts',
    output: 'spec/javascripts'
  guard 'jasmine-headless-webkit' do
    watch(%r{^spec/javascripts/(.*)\..*}) do |m|
    newest_js_file("spec/javascripts/#{m[1]}_spec")
  end
  end
end
