Gulp needs to be installed to the working directory before the tasks can be run. Tick this to automatically install Gulp before running the Gulp command line. Leave this cleared if you are installing Gulp with a separate preceding NPM action.

Run NPM Using

The Using drop down is populated by any property collector properties whose namespace matches the pattern defined by the NPM action. The pattern for this action is ^NPM.*

If you create a property collector for this pre-install action, make sure you select the Path Finder PlugIn type and give it a name that will match the pattern above in blue. Example names listed here, search the table's Plugin column for "NPM".

For more in-depth explanations on property collectors see Property Collectors.

Alternatively, you can select the Custom option from the Using drop down list and specify a path in the resulting input field that will be displayed. Please read Why it's a good idea to use a property collector before using this option.

Tick this to log output from the Gulp command line. [--silent]

Timeout (in seconds)
