Code

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ const tasky = require('node-tasky');

✗ import tasky from 'node-tasky';

Package uses CommonJS, not ESM. Use require().

watchJS

✓ tasky.watchJS('output.js', ['input1.js', 'input2.js']);

✗ tasky.watchJS(['input1.js'], 'output.js');

First argument is output file, second is array of inputs.

watchCSS

✓ tasky.watchCSS('output.css', ['input.scss', 'input.less']);

✗ tasky.watchCSS('output.css', 'input.scss');

Input must be an array even for a single file.

Compiles and minifies JavaScript and SCSS files into single output files.

const tasky = require('node-tasky'); tasky.watchJS('dist/scripts.min.js', ['src/file1.js', 'src/file2.js']); tasky.watchCSS('dist/styles.min.css', ['src/style.scss']);
