Metronic's Gulpbuild tools provide easy package management and production deployment for any type of web application that also comes with powerful asset bundle tools to organize assets structure with custom bundling for production.

Gulp Quick Start

  1. Download the latest theme source from the Marketplace.
  2. Download and install Node.js from Nodejs. The suggested version to install is 16.x LTS.
  3. Start a command prompt window or terminal and change directory to [unpacked path]/theme/tools/:
    cd theme/tools/
    
  4. Install the latest NPM:
    npm install --global npm@latest
    
  5. Install Yarn via the NPM:
    npm install --global yarn
    
    Don't forget to run yarn upgradeafter every Metronic update is released in order to receive newly added or updated 3rd-party plugins.
    Use npm cache clean --forcecommand, if the installation had failed at any step. Retry again from beginning once it's done.
  6. Gulp is a toolkit that helps you automate your time-consuming tasks in development workflow. To install gulp globally:
    npm install --global gulp-cli
    
    If you have previously installed a version of gulp globally, remove it to make sure old version doesn't collide with new gulp-cli:
    npm rm --global gulp
    
    Verify that gulp in successfully installed, and version of installed gulp will appear ( CLI version: 2.3.0 Local version: 4.0.2):
    gulp --version
    
    if you're ran into a ReferenceError: primordials is not definederror when running gulp in the terminal, you may have an incompatibility between the node version and gulp. Use below command to force install gulp version.
    npm install gulp@^4.0.2
  7. Install the Metronic dependencies in [unpacked path]/theme/tools/folder.
    yarn
    
    We recommend using Yarninstead NPMfor the Metronic dependencies setup. Yarnsupports nested dependencies resolutions in package.jsonwhere spesific version of sub dependacies are required such as resolutions: { "gulp-dart-sass/sass": "1.32.13" }.
  8. The below command will compile all the assets(sass, js, media) to dist/assets/folder: State which demo to compile and append at the end of the command. Eg. --demo1
    gulp --demo1
    
    If you had any error at this step during compilation. Try to update gulpto the latest version. npm install --global gulp-cli
  9. Start the localhost server:
    gulp localhost
    
    Keep the console open. Open this link to run http://localhost:8080/demo1/dist/ . It will take a few seconds for the build to finish. To stop a localhost environment, press Ctrl+C.
  10. Gulp Build Options

    Gulp Build Tasks

    Update the Node.js, global npmand yarnto the latest versions for any errors related to node-sass.
    If the gulpcommand is not working, try to remove tools/node_modulesfolder, and reinstall dependencies using yarn.

    Launch your terminal and change its current directory to the project's tools folder where the build files are located. All commands below must be run in this tools folder.

    cd theme/tools/
    

    For the first time, run the command below to install the npm dependencies defined in /tools/package.json(if you haven't done it) :

    yarn
    

    After every modification in [demo]/src/, run the below task to compile the assets as defined in /tools/gulp.config.json:

    gulp --demo1
    

    Provide parameter --rtlto the gulp task. This command will disable RTL CSS from generating. If this param does not exist, by default, RTL CSS will be generated.

    gulp --rtl --demo1
    

    Provide parameter --jsto the gulp task. This command will generate javascript assets only.

    gulp --js --demo1
    

    Provide parameter --sassto the gulp task. This command will generate SCSS, SASS and CSS assets only.

    gulp --sass --demo1
    

    Provide parameter --mediato the gulp task. This command will generate all media, fonts, images, etc. assets only.

    gulp --media --demo1
    

    Provide parameter --prodto the gulp task. This command will minify all the JS and CSS.

    gulp --prod --demo1
    

    The customization should be done in theme/src/folder. After compilation refer to the destination folder theme/dist/. The bellow command is to start a real-time watcher. This task watches the SCSS and Javascript files and automatically recompile whenever the source files are changed. You also can run watcher separately for JS and SCSS.

    gulp watch --demo1
    

    Localhost

    Metronic uses Gulp-connectplugin use to run a simple webserver for quick browsing the HTML templatest:

    gulp localhost
    

    Keep the console open. Open this link to run http://localhost:8080/'.(Theme::isMultiDemo()?'demo1/':'').'dist/ . The default running port is 8080and in case, this port being used by other application, it can be changed in tools/gulp/watch.js

    connect.server({
      root: '../dist',
      livereload: true,
      port: 8081,
    });
