I'm a bit stuck with changing my old Gulp 3 Gulpfile to work in Gulp 4.
I have got to a point where it all seems to work except that the default and serve tasks are not marked as finished in powershell.
How can I unblock the code and allow them to finish correctly please?
var gulp = require('gulp');
var browserSync = require('browser-sync').create();
var sass = require('gulp-sass');
// Compile sass into CSS & auto-inject into browsers
gulp.task('sass', function() {
return gulp.src(['node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss', 'src/scss/*.scss'])
.pipe(sass())
.pipe(gulp.dest("src/css"))
.pipe(browserSync.stream());
});
// Move the javascript files into our /src/js folder
gulp.task('js', function() {
return gulp.src(['node_modules/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.min.js', 'node_modules/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js', 'node_modules/popper.js/dist/umd/popper.min.js'])
.pipe(gulp.dest("src/js"))
.pipe(browserSync.stream());
});
// Static Server + watching scss/html files
gulp.task('serve', gulp.series('sass', function() {
browserSync.init({
server: "./src"
});
gulp.watch(['node_modules/bootstrap/scss/bootstrap.scss', 'src/scss/*.scss'], gulp.series('sass'));
gulp.watch("src/*.html").on('change', browserSync.reload);
}));
gulp.task('default', gulp.parallel('js', 'serve'));
The second task in your serve
series doesn't return anything, gulp doesn't understand that. A task can return a stream or a promise - or it must call the callback parameter to signal completion, like so:
gulp.task('serve', gulp.series('sass', function(cb) {
// Your js task code here
cb()
}))
Read the latest gulp4 documentation, it'll help you.
