Not creating manifest correctly

[muuvmuuv]

Description

In my project I have multiple sources that have multiple sub-sources and each is concatenated in a separate file. That is why I have used a loop to create tasks dynamically. Somehow rev is not handle that correctly. It always produces just one or some of the files I push to the gulp taks.

Steps to reproduce

1. Use my gulpfile.js
2. create a src-folder with mark.js and `plyr.js``
3. install required dependencies from gulpfile
4. run gulp

Seems to work with base set to the src or dist folder but then the manifest file is created in the root not in the dist folder where I want it to have.

Final solution: ....pipe(rev.manifest(${DEST}/manifest.json, { base: SRC, merge: true })) which is in my humble opinion not very neat.

@muuvmuuv I am too facing the same problem as you are facing. rev-manifest is not producing all the sources from which I am building the gulp.

As per your solution. Can you please elaborate the keyword DEST and SRC? Are they a keyword or the destination and source locations of your files to be built?

[muuvmuuv]

Uhm, yes, those are variables (as you can see by ${). The formatting just break because of the backtick.

[Ritish-Madan]

Exactly, I tried something like ${/public/assets}/'manifest.json'. It stopped creating the manifest file. Can you please share a sample code you have used?

[muuvmuuv]

No, not this way man. ${} is the syntax to include variables inside template literals. I am not longer using that lib and idk how the initial config looked like but from my snippet it should look like this with static paths.

//...
...pipe(
  rev.manifest('./manifest.json', { 
    base: './',
    merge: true
  })
)
