grunt-filenames-to-json

Getting started

  npm install grunt-filenames-to-json

• add to Gruntfile

  grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-filenames-to-json');

Configure

grunt.initConfig({

    filenamesToJson : {
    	options : {
    		// true if full path should be included, default is false
    		fullPath : false,
    		// true if file extension should be included, default is false 
    		extensions : false
    	},
    	// any valid glob
        files : '**/js',

        // path to write json to
        destination : 'some/path/output.json'
    }

});
