npm install ionic-plugin-buildNOTE: It requires that all development to be done under src/ folder, instead of www/ folder.
This is an Ionic plugin to build source files. It performs the following operations:
- Preprocess index.html (see preprocess)
- Read all *.html templates, lint and converts them to minified javascript files, using $templateCache.put(...)
- Transforms all templateUrl: 'path/to/template.html' into templateProvider:function($templateCache){return $templateCache.get('path/to/template.html')}
- Read all .css files from index.html, minifies and concats them into all.min.css (minification is only done when -p flag is set or when -sc flag is set without -p flag)
- In every .css, replaces ../fonts/ionicons with ${bowerrc path}/ionic/fonts/ionicons
- In every .css, replaces ../fonts/fontawesomeionicons with ${bowerrc path}/components-font-awesome/fonts/fontawesome
- In every .css, replaces ../img/ with img/
- Read all .js files from index.html, lints, annotates, minifies and concats them into all.min.js (minification is only done when -p flag is set or when -sc flag is set without -p flag)
- Skips minification in resources under bower modules and already minified ones
- Copies all resources from src/ to www/ (images, etc)
- Replaces all scripts in index.html between and with
- Replaces all links in index.html between and with
These tasks are executed every time a cordova prepare, phonegap prepare or ionic prepare is executed.
When the command is phonegap serve it copies all files from src/ to www/ without modifying them and watch for changes in src/ directory, so they are immediately populated to corresponding platform.

Context variables are used to preprocess index.html.
This options can be used it like this:
`bash`
$ cordova prepare browser -p --skip-lint -nf
When cordova serve ... is executed, this plugin automatically detects it and watch for file changes. The problem with ionic run browser -l is that it executes cordova run browser untherneath, so no serve can be detected. In this case you can use the -w or -watch flags:
```
$ ionic run browser -l -w -nf
