gulp-task-list

gulp-task-list is a gulp task that lists all tasks in gulpfile.js along with their comments and dependencies.

Comments are the single line of comment text immediately before the gulp.task call. Only tasks defined by a direct call to gulp.task with the task name a litteral string, will have their documentation shown.

This is still in need of major improvement ... if you choose to use it, good luck and send me your pull requests!

gulp-showhelp is a better implementation of this kind of functionality, the only down side is that it doesn't list the dependencies.�

Usage

		var gulp = require('gulp');

		require('gulp-task-list')(gulp);

		// this is a simple task
		gulp.task('dummy', function() {
				console.log('this is dummy');
		});

		// also simple, but with a dependency
		gulp.task('smarty', ['dummy'], function() {
				console.log('smarty\'s pants?');
		});
