Before Launching Webserver, I want to run a gulp task

Hi,

I am using the default JavaScript Debug task to debug an HTML page. I have also installed the Chrome Extension. All works fine.

Now, I want to run a gulp task before I launch the HTML page. I add the task under "Before Lunch" panel.

Now, when I debug, a new browser opens with nothing in the URL, gulp task runs. The HTML page is not showing (once I added this gulp task).

Is there a way to launch the HTML page and at the same time run a gulp task?

 

Thanks

works for me (checked in 2016.3 EAP)... what task did you add? Does it return an exit code, or is it a watch task that is kept running?

Looks related to https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-21022.

Hi Elena
The gulp task I'm running is jasmine. In other words this task shall start jasmine on a Web server.

The browner opens but empty.

Thanks

does this task completes in some reasonable time, returning an exit code, or  keeps running waiting for some events? Sample project would be helpful
