grunt-wait-server

make grunt wait for server start

NPM version Built with Grunt

Getting Started

This plugin requires Grunt ~0.4.2

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-wait-server --save-dev

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

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-wait-server');

The "waitServer" task

Overview

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named waitServer or wait-server to the data object passed into grunt.initConfig().

grunt.initConfig({
  waitServer: {
    options: {
      req: 'http://localhost:8080',
      fail: function () {},
      timeout: 10 * 1000,
      isforce: false,
      interval: 800,
      print: true
    },
 
    server: {
      options: {
        req: {
          url: 'http://localhost:8080',
          method: 'HEAD'
        }
      }
    },
 
    remoteServer: {
      options: {
        req: 'http://example.com',
        print: false
      }
    },
 
    db: {
      options: {
        net: {
          port: 3306
        },
        timeout: 0
      }
    }
  }
});
