I think what you’re looking for is the actual command line tool grunt-init<\/code> found in the Project Scaffolding documentation.<\/p>\nYour current command grunt init<\/code> is looking for a Gruntfile.js<\/code> and the task init<\/code> inside it. It is obviously unable to find your Gruntfile.js<\/code> so is throwing that error.<\/p>\nEdit:<\/h3>\n
Your new error is because you have copied a Gruntfile.js<\/code> file over and the default<\/code> task (found near the bottom if you want to open it) will be calling those modules. Normally you will have used something like bower<\/code> to install them into your local directory.<\/p>\nYour default task I referred to above will look something like this:<\/p>\n
grunt.registerTask('default', ['jshint', 'qunit', 'concat', 'uglify']);\n<\/code><\/pre>\nThis is basically saying: when I run grunt<\/code> at the command line, run the tasks jshint<\/code>, qunit<\/code>, concat<\/code> and uglify<\/code> in that order. These tasks will have been specified earlier on in the Gruntfile<\/code>. To understand the file more check out a sample Gruntfile.<\/p>\nMay I suggest taking a look at the Yeoman as it is a great tool to provide you with scaffolding for your apps (including a working Gruntfile.js<\/code>).<\/p>\nEdit 2:<\/h3>\n
It is important you understand what is happening. The Gruntfile.js<\/code> you have copied over looks to be calling “subgrunt” tasks. i.e. grunt<\/code> tasks in sub projects. Is this what you are wanting?<\/p>\nFollowing through your Gruntfile.js<\/code> – when you run grunt<\/code> it is calling the following order: 'jshint', 'nodeunit', 'subgrunt'<\/code>.<\/p>\nIdeally you want to write this yourself rather than copying it as there are some options being called by jshint<\/code> I am unfamiliar with. If you read the jshint documentation it doesn’t mention the first three options.<\/p>\nI think you should try something like this:<\/p>\n
jshint: {\n options: {\n curly: true,\n eqeqeq: true,\n immed: true,\n latedef: true,\n newcap: true,\n noarg: true,\n sub: true,\n undef: true,\n unused: true,\n boss: true,\n eqnull: true,\n node: true,\n es5: true\n }\n files: {\n src: ['path\/to\/your\/*.js', 'another\/path\/to\/your\/*.js']\n }\n}\n<\/code><\/pre>\nYou should read through the documentation for each task and make sure you understand the options you are passing through.<\/p>\n
Another hint. If you see a file reference like the following:<\/p>\n
\n<\/code><\/pre>\nThis is a reference to a particular file\/property set in the Gruntfile.js<\/code>. In this case, this came from the watch<\/code> task and points to the jshint.gruntfile<\/code> property as a file to watch.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"grunt –version grunt-cli v0.1.8 grunt v0.4.1 $ npm -v 1.2.18 $ node -v v0.10.6 and when i do grunt init, to create the Gruntfile.js i get error: $ grunt init A valid Gruntfile could not be found.
