gulp protractor sets argv.baseur - gulp

Question

gulp.task(
'protractor', function () { console.log("xx4");
var configObj = {
configFile: config.test + 'protractor.conf.js'
};
configObj['args'] =[];//to be able to add multiple parameters
if (argv.suite) {
configObj['args'].push (
'--suite',
argv.suite
);
}
if (argv.env) {
configObj['args'].push (
'--env',
argv.env
);
}
argv.baseUrl = produrl;
console.log("devurl",produrl);
configObj['args'].push (
'--baseUrl',
argv.baseUrl
);
console.log("argv.baseUrl",argv.baseUrl);
return gulp.src([])
.pipe(plumber({errorHandler: handleErrors}))
.pipe(protractor(configObj))
.on(
'error', function () {
gutil.log('E2E Tests failed');
process.exit(1);
}
);
}
);
var qaurl = require('./env-config/qa-baseurl');
var produrl = require('./env-config/prod-baseurl');
var localurl = require('./env-config/local-baseurl');
gulp.task('qa', function () {
console.log("argv.baseUrl",argv.baseUrl);
});
gulp.task('local', function () {
console.log("xx3");
return process.env.NODE_ENV = 'development';
});
when i run
gulp protractor
or
gulp protractor qa
it should make argv.baseurl for qa url and it should push to configobj. but configobj is in protractor.
ReferenceError: configObj is not defined
this is erro.r.
gulp.task(
'protractor', ['env'],function () { console.log("xx4");
i can do something like this but it wont push again. Also i cant get qa or local to parameter to put firstly task?
for that
gulp.task(
'protractor', ['env']
i mean here, first go to env (env means qa or prod or local)
when i run from
gulp protractor local
how i can get local to that env?
How can i make it push and so that i can use in protractor
this is localurl
module.exports = "localhost:8080";
only url
i cam use setbaseurl task [setbaseurl] but how wiil i get local in
gulp protractor local?

for pushing data in array:
var configObj = {'configFile': 'protractor.conf.js',
'arg':''};
configObj['arg'] = [];
for(var i = 0; i<5; i++){
configObj['arg'].push('value of i::' + i);
}
console.log(a);
Output:
Object {configFile: "protractor.conf.js", arg: Array[5]}
where arg is:
0:"value of i::0"
1:"value of i::1"
2:"value of i::2"
3:"value of i::3"
4:"value of i::4"
For gulp task:
var gulp = require('gulp');
var taskName = '';
gulp.task(
'protractor', function () {
taskName = process.argv[3];
}, taskName.toString());
gulp.task('qa', function () {
console.log("qa task executing");
});
gulp.task('local', function () {
console.log("local task executing");
});
command used:
gulp protractor qa
Output on console:
$ gulp protractor qa

If you want to use this configObj in conf.js file then in the args section, pass ['--params.configObj', configObj]
where "--params.configObj" is defined in conf.js
params: {
configObj: ''
}
To add self reference you can use like:
configObj['--params.configObj'] = configObj;
