I started with an empty project generated by yeoman, and tried to edit the Gruntfile.js to fit my needs.
The grunt build task reads my index.html file, and concatenates my bower dependencies and generates a .vendor.js file.
I broke something in the workflow, and now usemin does not replace markups in my index.html file, even if the .vendor.js file is generated.
Here is my Gruntfile.js
'use strict';
module.exports = function (grunt) {
// Load grunt tasks automatically
require('load-grunt-tasks')(grunt);
// Time how long tasks take. Can help when optimizing build times
require('time-grunt')(grunt);
// Define the configuration for all the tasks
grunt.initConfig({
// Project settings

Any help understanding this would be appreciated.
I'll answer my own question:
I had a difference between my useminprepare configuration and my usemin configuration.
useminprepare was writing to <%= yeoman.dist %>/public/views/edit/index.html
and usemin was reading from <%= yeoman.dist %>/views/edit/index.html
For some reason, I just had the same problem. During grunt build
my index.html
wasn't updated (but main.css and main.js were outputted just fine). I tried grunt usemin:html
AND THAT WORKED.
So I ended up moving usemin:html
to the last place in my grunt build
list of tasks.
No idea yet why this was, but it'll get me where I needed to be. In case someone else could find this useful.
