Fourth assignment

Given in 18th Nov 2014, to be returned by 9th Dec 2014

Extend your existing main project which was originally started in the first assignment, continued in the second and the third assignments.

Now that the project can be executed via command line and as a part of another application, it should be able to be executed via task runner.

A successful completion of this assignment is done when the following points can be evaluated as completed:

• Choose a task runner, for example gulp or Grunt
• Create a new repository, named after the task runner and your initial main project, for example gulp-image-thumbnailer, in case the main project was called image-thumbnailer
• Follow the best practises for the given task runner and its plugin guidelines when initialising the plugin, such as how to configure files
• Add your original project as a git url dependency, so it can be used
• The task runner project should contain a working example of how the plugin is used, for example in a gulpfile.js and via devDependencies
• By running [task runner name] in the project repository, after npm i should result success
• The initial project should accomplish the behaviour it was initially planned.

Please note that due to the requirements, the project done in previous assignments, should be in a working state and thus usable for the task runner.

Elevate the release status of the main project to 1.0.0, by making a tag and use that version tree for the task runner project. Once the task runner is to be considered ready, it should also be tagged as 1.0.0.
