gruntfile.js config using grunt-jekyll

Question

I am trying to configure jekyll with grunt.js.

Here is my directory structure:

.
.._layouts
.._includes
..other

Here is my code for the gruntfile:

    jekyll: {
        dev: {
            src: '',
            dest: ['_layouts', '_includes']
        },

    },

This dumps the entire site in one folder named _layouts,_includes

I want to to source .html files from both the _includes and _layouts folders. I know the easy way to do this is to put them in "templates" and then have jekyll watch that, but I was wondering if I can keep to this alternative structure somehow?

Answer 1

I'm not entirely positive this will work as the dest only accepts a string. You might consider using 2 sub tasks that put the site in both _layouts and _includes directories
