ClosureCompiler no longer works - jit and load-config

[cristian-sima]

Hi. I have used it for months and today it is not working. It stops with this message

• windows 10

hmmm there is no error message that would help here, it just aborts :/

[cristian-sima]

@thanpolas Why?

[thanpolas]

try to run the command with the debug option like so:

grunt build --debug --verbose

[cristian-sima]

What is build ?

[thanpolas]

whatever your task is, i don't know how you call it, i can't see from the screenshot

same

Gruntfile.js

/* minifyOnSave:false */
/*global module:false, require */
module.exports = function (grunt) {

  // load just the ones which we need
  require('jit-grunt')(grunt);

  // measures the time each task takes
  require('time-grunt')(grunt);

  // load grunt config
  require('load-grunt-config')(grunt, {
    jitGrunt: true
  });
};

And I have a file in the grunt folder called closureCompiler.js which contains this:

module.exports = {
  options: {
    compilerFile: 'W:/Developer/compiler.jar'
  },
  compilerOpts: {
    warning_level: 'verbose'
  },
  preCommit: {
    options: {
      checkModified: true,
    },
    files: [{
      expand: true,
      src: [
        'static/js/**/*.js',
        '!static/js/**/*.min.js'
      ],
      ext: '.min.js'
    }]
  }
}

I'm sorry, I still can't tell what's wrong, there's no error or stack trace to indicate something...

What changed since the last time it was working? Is it working on your colleagues?

[cristian-sima]

A lot of Windows 10 updates

[cristian-sima]

It is just me working on this. Yesterday it was working fine

Hi.

I figured out the situation the problem occurs:

• using jit-grunt
• using load-grunt-config, but only when jitGrunt is set to true:

  require('load-grunt-config')(grunt, {
     jitGrunt: true
  });

It appears that closureCompiler is the only task that has this problem.

Can someone make something for this?

[cristian-sima]

I got the solution!

You have to tell jit that closureCompiler belongs to this package, using static mapping

  require('jit-grunt')(grunt, {
    closureCompiler: "grunt-closure-tools"
  });
