# gulp-file

[![Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/alexmingoia/gulp-file.png)](http://travis-ci.org/alexmingoia/gulp-file) 
[![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/gulp-file.png)](http://badge.fury.io/js/gulp-file)

Create vinyl files from a string or buffer and insert into the Gulp pipeline.

## Installation

```sh
npm install gulp-file
```

## API

### plugin(name, source, options)

Creates a vinyl file with the given `name` from `source` string or buffer and
returns a transform stream for use in your gulp pipeline.

### plugin(sourceArray, options)

Creates vinyl files for each entry in the array.  Each entry is an object with a `name` and `source` property.  A vinyl file is created with the given `name` and `source` and inserted into the returned transform stream.

## Example

[Primus](https://github.com/primus/primus) outputs the client library as a string. Using `gulp-file` we can
create a vinyl file from the string and insert it into the gulp pipeline:

```javascript
var gulp = require('gulp')
  , file = require('gulp-file');

gulp.task('js', function() {
  var str = primus.library();

return gulp.src('scripts/**.js')
    .pipe(file('primus.js', str))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});
```

Use it at the beginning of your pipeline by setting `src: true`:

```javascript
var gulp = require('gulp')
  , file = require('gulp-file');

gulp.task('js', function() {
  var str = primus.library();

return file('primus.js', str, { src: true })
    .pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});
```

## Options

### src

Calls `stream.end()` to be used at the beginning of your pipeline in place of
`gulp.src()`. Default: `false`.
