grunt-w3c-html-validation Build Status

W3C html validation grunt plugin, Forked from html-grunt-validation. Validate all files in a directory automatically.

This version has below additions on top of original plug-in:

  • This plug-in has been extended to generate the W3C error's source code context/reference from validated code. This will help users to find the error easily by just copy/paste from validated page source.
  • Original plug-in was skipping validation for all files/URL after any Error-Free file/URL. This will not skip files after a error free file/URL and will validate all configured files/URLs.
  • This plug-in has also been extended for generating W3C reports in HTML format and now has some extra settings.

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.1

If you haven't used Grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a Gruntfile as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-w3c-html-validation --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-w3c-html-validation');

And add to your task list using validation:

grunt.registerTask('default', ['validation']);

The "validation" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named validation to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

validation: {
    options: {
        reset: grunt.option('reset') || false,
        stoponerror: false,
        remotePath: 'http://decodize.com/',
        remoteFiles: ['html/moving-from-wordpress-to-octopress/',
                      'css/site-preloading-methods/'], //or
        remoteFiles: 'validation-files.json', // JSON file contains array of page paths.
        relaxerror: ['Bad value X-UA-Compatible for attribute http-equiv on element meta.'], //ignores these errors
        generateReport: true,
        errorHTMLRootDir: "w3cErrorFolder",
        useTimeStamp: true,
        errorTemplate: "w3c_validation_error_Template.html"
    },
    files: {
        src: ['<%= yeoman.app %>/*.html',
