Taskr is a highly performant task runner, much like Gulp or Grunt, but written with concurrency in mind. With Taskr, everything is acoroutine, which allows for cascading and composable tasks; but unlike Gulp, it's not limited to the stream metaphor.

Taskr is extremely extensible, soanything can be a task. Our core system will accept whatever you throw at it, resulting in a modular system of reusable plugins and tasks, connected by a declarativetaskfile.js that's easy to read.

constsrc='src/{admin,client}';constdist='build';module.exports={*lint(task){yieldtask.source(`${src}/*.js`).xo({esnext:true});},*scripts(task){yieldtask.source(`${src}/*.js`).babel({presets:['es2015']}).target(`${dist}/js`);},*styles(task){yieldtask.source(`${src}/*.sass`).sass().autoprefixer().target(`${dist}/css`);},*build(task){yieldtask.parallel(['lint','scripts','styles']);}}

TL;DR This is the continuation of and successor toFly!

Fly's original author,Jorge Bucaran, has shifted focus to other exciting projects. Before leaving, he chose to guarantee Fly's future by transferring the project toLuke Edwards, who was one of the first and most enthused contributors.

To reflect this milestone, Fly has been renamed to Taskr and has a stable, exciting future ahead! 🎉

For existing Fly users,taskr@1.0.x is equivalent tofly@2.0.6 -- with a few exceptions:

1. Theflyfile.js has been renamed totaskfile.js;
2. Thefly key insidepackage.json has been renamed totaskr. (See Local Plugins)

At this point, the Fly &Taskr ecosystems are fully interchangeable, which means that you can installtaskr and use anyfly-* ortaskr-* plugins of your choosing. That said, most plugins havealready been ported over to the new namespace!

Lastly, Taskr will maintain a list ofofficial plugins. Don't forget to check 'em out!

• lightweight: with6 dependencies, installation takes seconds
• minimal API: Taskr only exposes a couple methods, but they're everything you'll ever need
• performant: because ofBluebird, creating and running Tasks are quick and inexpensive
• cascadable: sequential Task chains can cascade their return values, becoming the next Task's argument
• asynchronous: concurrent Task chains run without side effects & can beyielded consistently
• composable: chain APIs and Tasks directly; say goodbye topipe() x 100!
• modular: easily share or export individual Tasks or Plugins for later use
• stable: requires Node>= 4.6 to run (LTS is6.11)

The main documentation can be found intaskr, our core package.

Each@taskr/* ortaskr-* plugin will also include its own documentation, too!

The Taskr repo is managed as a monorepo that is composed of its manyofficial packages.

Important: The core package istaskr and must be installed before using any additional plugins.

These npm packages are officially released and maintained by the Taskr team.

If you can't find what you need, be sure to check out thecommunity list or browse for alltaskr-related plugins onnpmjs.com, too!

If you're still missing something, open a ticket so that the team & community can try to help you... or create & share your own Taskr plugin! We have an awesomeYeoman generator to help speed up the process.
