> A Grunt wrapper for [octopack](https://github.com/OctopusDeploy/octopackjs) library to push projects to Octopus Deploy

## Install
This plugin requires [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/) `~0.4.5`

Install with [npm](https://npmjs.org/package/@octopusdeploy/grunt-octo)
```shell
npm install  --save-dev @octopusdeploy/grunt-octo
```

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

```js
grunt.loadNpmTasks('@octopusdeploy/grunt-octo');
```

In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named `octo-pack` and `octo-pack` to the data object passed into `grunt.initConfig()`.

## Options
### octo-pack
#### type (optional)
Optional parameter to define the package type. Valid values are `targz`, `tar`, `zip` or `nupkg`. If not provided this defaults to `targz`.

#### id (optional)
Defines the `Id` component of the created package. By default it will extract the name out of `package.json` if present.

#### version (optional)
Defines the `version` component of the created package. By default it will extract the version out of `package.json` if present.

#### dst
The output location for the generated package file.

### octo-push
#### host
Required property that points to the Octopus Server instance the package should be pushed to.

#### apiKey
Key linked to account with `BuiltInFeedPush` permissions. 
If `options.replace` is set to true and a package with the same ID and version already exists then the `BuiltInFeedAdminister` permission is required.

#### replace (optional)
Flag to force overwrite of existing package if one already exists with the same ID and version.

## Usage Examples

#### Combined Pack & Push
Using both `octo-pack` and `octo-push` the project will first be packaged then then uploaded to the server. 
Note that the `gulp-contrib-clean` task is run first to ensure no previous packages are still present in the output directory.

```js
grunt.initConfig({
    clean: {
      build: ['./bin/**/*']
    }
    "octo-pack": {
      prod: {
        options: {
          dst: './bin'
        },
        src: ['**/*', '!src/**/*', '!./gulpfile.js']
      }
    },    
    "octo-push": {
        options: {
          host: 'http://localhost',
          apiKey: 'API-XXXXXXXXX',
          replace: true
        },
      src: ['./bin/**/*']
    }
    });
  grunt.registerTask('publish',  ['clean', 'octo-pack:prod', 'octo-push']);
```
