gulp-freeze

Adds md5 checksum to filename

Compute md5 checksum from the file contents and append it to filename. Useful for cache-busting.

Installation

Install via npm:

npm install gulp-freeze --save-dev

Example

This gulpfile creates a file named like app.min_0187d9d019510c4e1492acad3015fda0.js from your app.min.js

var gulp    = require('gulp');
var freeze = require('gulp-freeze');
 
gulp.task('default', function() {
    gulp.src('dest/app.min.js')
        .pipe(freeze())
        .pipe(gulp.dest('dest'));
});

Configuration

Now we support one configuration property:

append(Boolean) - append checksum to filename. If not, filename will be replaced by hash. Defaults to true. Call plugin as freeze({append: false}) to disable it.
