Question

My index.html has:

    <script src="/app/scripts/app.js"></script>
    <script src="/app/scripts/controllers/main.js"></script>
    <!-- endbuild -->
</body>
</html>

All of my angular code is in a app directory from the top level. My Gruntfile.coffee is:

useminPrepare:
  html: "<%= appConfig.app %>/index.html"
  options:
    dest: "<%= appConfig.dist %>"

usemin:
  html: "<%= appConfig.dist %>/*.html"
  css: ["<%= appConfig.dist %>/styles/**/*.css"]
  options:
    dirs: ["<%= appConfig.dist %>"]

But I'm getting an error:

Running "useminPrepare:html" (useminPrepare) task
Going through app/index.html to update the config
Looking for build script HTML comment blocks
Warning: An error occurred while processing a template (Cannot read property 'src' of undefined). Use --force to continue.

What am I doing wrong?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I think your problem is, that you want to concat/minify the angular sources. The documented way is to use the provided files like angular-route.min.js and include them in the head section of your html.

So, following lines throws that error:

<script src="/app/bower_components/angular/angular.js"></script>
<!-- build:js /app/scripts/angular.js -->
<script src="/app/bower_components/angular-route/angular-route.js"></script> 
<script src="/app/bower_components/angular-resource/angular-resource.js"></script>
<script src="/app/bower_components/angular-cookies/angular-cookies.js"></script>
<script src="/app/bower_components/angular-sanitize/angular-sanitize.js"></script>
<!-- endbuild -->

As a side note: these angular libs heave heavy complex sourcecode in some parts, its quite a challenge to exactly configure your personal minifier, like the angular developers did with theirs, to provide the public angular-xxxxx.min.js files.

OTHER TIPS

If I understand correctly, your index.html file is in the app directory, so you may try to use relative links to scripts in your html. 

<!-- build:js scripts/angular.js -->
<script src="bower_components/angular-route/angular-route.js"></script> 
<script src="bower_components/angular-resource/angular-resource.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-cookies/angular-cookies.js"></script>
<script src="bower_components/angular-sanitize/angular-sanitize.js"></script>
<!-- endbuild -->

<!-- build:js({.tmp,app}) scripts/scripts.js -->
<script src="scripts/app.js"></script>
<script src="scripts/controllers/main.js"></script>
<!-- endbuild -->
