vinyl file pipe

[pruttned]

Hi,
pipe method was removed from the vinyl file in v2.0.0
(gulpjs/vinyl#107 ,
gulpjs/vinyl@d14ba4a )
therefore pixelsmith fails at this line

I posted a question about alternatives on the linked issue as we will have to add support but also add more tests. I'll check back on this in 1 week as it seems gulp@3 is still on [email protected] which is on [email protected]:

https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp/blob/v3.9.1/package.json#L41

https://github.com/gulpjs/vinyl-fs/blob/v0.3.14/package.json#L21

@twolfson is there a solution?

[twolfson]

The Gulp team never replied on the original issue (gulpjs/vinyl#107) so we're still lacking support. Gulp still seems to be on the [email protected] version though so this hasn't become a priority

When it does become a priority, I feel like we'll probably write a small library (e.g. vinyl-pipe) which copy/pastes the original behavior (gulpjs/vinyl@d14ba4a). Is there any reason y'all are looking for vinyl@2 support?

[twolfson]

It looks like gulp@4 was released over the past few days as I was notified in twolfson/gulp.spritesmith#135

https://github.com/gulpjs/gulp/releases/tag/v4.0.0

This is now a priority but I'm pretty swamped. If someone doesn't beat me to it, then I'll resolve this by the end of the weekend

Looking into handling this now

This has been resolved in 2.2.0. I'll be publishing upgrades for spritesmith, gulp.spritesmith, and grunt-spritesmith shortly after that. Additionally, this impacts all spritesmith engines so I'll be adding support to canvassmith, gmsmith, and phantomjssmith after that
