How to use this build script outside my project? about ant-build-script HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi,

You need the tools folder and the config folder as well as the build.xml itself.

Then, I think you can just edit the tasks in project.properties and it should work as long as everything maps correctly.

Figured it out. There was two things that I needed to do:

1. Run ant with ant -lib path/to/h5bp-ant/tools to pick up Ant contrib

2. Import default.properties in my build file like this:

It might be nice to add this to the README in the Add the build script to your project section.

@dagoss Happy to hear you figured it out. FWIW, the path to the tools directory can be updated in the project.properties to point wherever you need it.

PRs always welcome for updated docs.

Actually, I'm still not sure about this. I attempt to process a SCSS file and ran into this error:

/home/dagoss/projects/h5bp-ant/build.xml:1318: /home/dagoss/projects/initializr/home/dagoss/projects/h5bp-ant/tools does not exist.

(that looks like the ${basedir}/${dir.build.tools}. See below)

Here's what my project's build.xml looks like:

<project basedir='..' default="default_target">
  <import file='../../h5bp-ant/build.xml'/>
  <dirname property="imported.basedir" file="${ant.file.Boilerplate Build}"/>
  <!-- before adding the line below, I got errors about there being no [my project]/build/tools -->
  <property name="dir.build.tools" value="${imported.basedir}/tools"/>
  <property name="build.css.scss" value="true"/>
  <property name="file.root.stylesheet" value="test.scss"/>
  <property file="${imported.basedir}/config/default.properties"/>

  <target name="default_target">
    <antcall target="build"/>
  </target>
</project>

from ant-build-script.

I got this to work with this tweak to the H5BP build.xml:

Changed:

<path id="JRuby">
  <fileset file="./${dir.build.tools}/jruby-complete-1.6.7.2.jar"/>
  <fileset file="./${dir.build.tools}/gem-sass.jar"/>
</path>

To

<path id="JRuby">
  <fileset file="${dir.build.tools}/jruby-complete-1.6.7.2.jar"/>
  <fileset file="${dir.build.tools}/gem-sass.jar"/>
</path>

I tried replace ./ with ${basedir}/, but that didn't work. I'm seeing similar errors compiler.jar.

I don't like changing the H5BP build file by hand like that. Is there a better way to resolve this problem from my project's build file?
