Methods
(async) getDescriptor(taskName, options) → {Promise<object>}
Description: Resolves and validates the task descriptor by calling the task factory (the default export) once with the given options. The result is memoized per project and runtime taskName, so a factory that branches on options (for example on projectNamespace) is called once for each project/task pair. The build-signature phase and task execution share that descriptor. The runtime task name keeps repeated configurations (which get a --<number> suffix) separate.
Only valid from Specification Version 5.0. If the descriptor declares a specVersion, it must be equal to this task extension's configured Specification Version (the task extension's own ui5.yaml value, which is unrelated to the Specification Version of the project being built).
Source: project/lib/specifications/extensions/Task.js, line 52
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
taskName | string | Runtime task name (memoization key) |
options | object | Options passed to the factory |
Returns:
The validated descriptor
Type: Promise<object>
(async) getDetermineBuildSignatureCallback(taskNameopt, optionsopt)
Description: The task's determineBuildSignature callback. From Specification Version 5.0 it is a property of the descriptor the factory returns; below 5.0 the callback is not supported and this returns undefined.
Source: project/lib/specifications/extensions/Task.js, line 103
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Attributes | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
taskName | string | optional | Runtime task name (required at Specification Version 5.0) |
options | object | optional | Options passed to the factory (required at Specification Version 5.0) |
(async) getExpectedOutputCallback(taskNameopt, optionsopt)
Description: The task's determineExpectedOutput callback. From Specification Version 5.0 it is a property of the descriptor; below 5.0 it is a top-level named export. Currently parsed but not consumed anywhere.
Source: project/lib/specifications/extensions/Task.js, line 136
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Attributes | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
taskName | string | optional | Runtime task name (required at Specification Version 5.0) |
options | object | optional | Options passed to the factory (required at Specification Version 5.0) |
getId() → {string}
Description: Gets the ID of this specification.
Note: Only to be used for special occasions as it is specific to the provider that was used and does not necessarily represent something defined by the project.
For general purposes of a unique identifier use getName instead.
Source: project/lib/specifications/Specification.js, line 180
Overrides: @ui5/project/specifications/Extension#getId
Returns:
Specification ID
Type: string
getKind() → {string}
Description: Gets the kind of this specification, for example project or extension
Source: project/lib/specifications/Specification.js, line 200
Overrides: @ui5/project/specifications/Extension#getKind
Returns:
Specification kind
Type: string
getName() → {string}
Description: Gets the name of this specification. Represents a unique identifier.
Source: project/lib/specifications/Specification.js, line 190
Overrides: @ui5/project/specifications/Extension#getName
Returns:
Specification name
Type: string
(async) getRequiredDependenciesCallback(taskNameopt, optionsopt)
Description: The task's determineRequiredDependencies callback. From Specification Version 5.0 it is a property of the descriptor the factory returns; below 5.0 it is a top-level named export of the task module (legacy). Returns undefined if the task does not define it.
Source: project/lib/specifications/extensions/Task.js, line 87
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Attributes | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
taskName | string | optional | Runtime task name (required at Specification Version 5.0) |
options | object | optional | Options passed to the factory (required at Specification Version 5.0) |
getRootPath() → {string}
Description: Gets the specification's file system path. This might not be POSIX-style on some platforms
Source: project/lib/specifications/Specification.js, line 242
Overrides: @ui5/project/specifications/Extension#getRootPath
Returns:
Project root path
Type: string
getRootReader(parametersopt) → {@ui5/fs/ReaderCollection}
Description: Gets a ReaderCollection for the root directory of the specification. Resource readers always use POSIX-style
Source: project/lib/specifications/Specification.js, line 257
Overrides: @ui5/project/specifications/Extension#getRootReader
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Attributes | Description | ||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
parameters | object | optional | Parameters Properties:
|
Returns:
Reader collection
Type: @ui5/fs/ReaderCollection
getSpecVersion() → {@ui5/project/specifications/SpecificationVersion}
Description: Returns an instance of a helper class representing a Specification Version
Source: project/lib/specifications/Specification.js, line 222
Overrides: @ui5/project/specifications/Extension#getSpecVersion
Returns:
Type: @ui5/project/specifications/SpecificationVersion
(async) getStepBased(taskNameopt, optionsopt) → {Promise<boolean>}
Description: Whether the task opts into the step-based build API, derived from the descriptor carrying a steps array (Specification Version 5.0 and later). Always false below 5.0, where the default export is the legacy task body.
Source: project/lib/specifications/extensions/Task.js, line 120
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Attributes | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
taskName | string | optional | Runtime task name (required at Specification Version 5.0) |
options | object | optional | Options passed to the factory (required at Specification Version 5.0) |
Returns:
true if the descriptor defines steps
Type: Promise<boolean>
(async) getTask()
Description: The task module's default export.
From Specification Version 5.0 this is the task factory (options) => descriptor; use #getDescriptor to obtain the validated descriptor. Below 5.0 it is the legacy task body that is invoked directly during the build (any value it returns is ignored).
Source: project/lib/specifications/extensions/Task.js, line 32
getType() → {string}
Description: Gets the type of this specification, for example application or library in case of projects, and task or server-middleware in case of extensions
Source: project/lib/specifications/Specification.js, line 212
Overrides: @ui5/project/specifications/Extension#getType
Returns:
Specification type
Type: string
getVersion() → {string}
Description: Gets the specification's generic version, as typically defined in a package.json
Source: project/lib/specifications/Specification.js, line 232
Overrides: @ui5/project/specifications/Extension#getVersion
Returns:
Project version
Type: string
