Laravel Elixir version 3 is now released and available for everyone. This release features some exciting new features included true sequential tasks, more explicit logging, and easier configuration.
Sequential tasks
With version 2 this code:
mix.sass('one.scss').coffee('module.coffee').sass('two.scss');
Would trigger both sass calls before moving on to the coffee task. Now with version three these would processed in order.
More explicit logging
The Terminal will now detail the exact source and output files/directories that the current task is referencing (based upon your Gulpfile).
Elixir.extend('speak', function(message) {
new Task('speak', function() {
return gulp.src('').pipe(shell('say ' + message));
})
.watch('./app/**');
});
// mix.speak('Hello World');
