I am trying to figure out how I can accomplish the following using brunch. This is the current directory structure for our app:
--app
--base (theme folder, considered the master for all themes)
--sass
--js
--theme2
--sass
--js
--theme3
--sass
--js
...so on
The base folder serves as a master for all other themes. However, if another theme has a file in the sass directory or js directory that matches one in the base folder it overrides that file in the base folder (this applies for imports as well).
I have so far created this which works the way it needs to but it circumvents the brunch pipeline in that I write out the files (doesn't currently support file concatenation) and I would prefer to do this using the proper brunch pipline.
What happens is that each sass or js file it encounters in the base folder is used to generate a new file for another theme. E.g say the base theme has a file called main.scss. The path passed to compile is base/scss/main.scss. Now I want to use this same file for the other themes so I get all the theme folders and dynamically use this base main.scss file for each of the other themes. However, I also alter the inner imports to substitute files imports if they exist in the other themes directory. Its not the same file being spat into multiple locations.
The problem is that I want to dynamically generate new CSS files for brunch to render to different folders not related to the original path passed in (and thus the joinTo config option for this path). By calling the callback, it automatically uses the original path parameter passed to the compile method.
Use overrides in your brunch-config to change your joinTos to include base plus the given theme. You can also customize the build output directory or anything else for each theme if that helps. Then run each build separately using a command like brunch build --env theme1.
