How to append the main.css file through Roots's Sage gulpfile? - gulp

Question

I'm very new to gulp and seeing as how complex the Roots's Sage gulpfile is, I'm so lost as to which block of code I should put in my code in.
The usage examples for both packages is as follows:
CSS Shrink
var gulp = require('gulp');
var cssshrink = require('gulp-cssshrink');
gulp.task('default', function() {
gulp.src('css/**/*.css')
.pipe(cssshrink())
.pipe(gulp.dest('dist/css/'));
});
Combine Media Queries
var cmq = require('gulp-combine-media-queries');
gulp.task('cmq', function () {
gulp.src('src/**/*.css')
.pipe(cmq({
log: true
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest('dist'));
});
Manifest.json file:
{
"dependencies": {
"main.js": {
"files": [
"scripts/main.js"
],
"main": true
},
"main.css": {
"files": [
"styles/main.scss"
],
"main": true
},
"customizer.js": {
"files": [
"scripts/customizer.js"
]
},
"jquery.js": {
"bower": [
"jquery"
]
}
},
"config": {
"devUrl": "http://yaharga/"
}
}
I tried to put it in the Styles task at the gulpfile.js, but nothing happened:

// See https://github.com/austinpray/asset-builder

// `path` - Paths to base asset directories. With trailing slashes.
// - `path.source` - Path to the source files. Default: `assets/`
// - `path.dist` - Path to the build directory. Default: `dist/`
var path = manifest.paths;
// `config` - Store arbitrary configuration values here.
var config = manifest.config || {};
// `globs` - These ultimately end up in their respective `gulp.src`.
// - `globs.js` - Array of asset-builder JS dependency objects. Example:
// ```
// {type: 'js', name: 'main.js', globs: []}
// ```
// - `globs.css` - Array of asset-builder CSS dependency objects. Example:
// ```
// {type: 'css', name: 'main.css', globs: []}
// ```
// - `globs.fonts` - Array of font path globs.
// - `globs.images` - Array of image path globs.
// - `globs.bower` - Array of all the main Bower files.
var globs = manifest.globs;
// `project` - paths to first-party assets.
// - `project.js` - Array of first-party JS assets.
// - `project.css` - Array of first-party CSS assets.
var project = manifest.getProjectGlobs();

};
// Path to the compiled assets manifest in the dist directory
var revManifest = path.dist + 'assets.json';
// ## Reusable Pipelines
// See https://github.com/OverZealous/lazypipe
// ### CSS processing pipeline
// Example
// ```
// gulp.src(cssFiles)
// .pipe(cssTasks('main.css')
// .pipe(gulp.dest(path.dist + 'styles'))
// ```
var cssTasks = function(filename) {
return lazypipe()
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif(!enabled.failStyleTask, plumber());
})
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif(enabled.maps, sourcemaps.init());
})
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif('*.less', less());
})
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif('*.scss', sass({
outputStyle: 'nested', // libsass doesn't support expanded yet
precision: 10,
includePaths: ['.'],
errLogToConsole: !enabled.failStyleTask
}));
})
.pipe(concat, filename)
.pipe(autoprefixer, {
browsers: [
'last 2 versions',
'android 4',
'opera 12'
]
})
.pipe(cssNano, {
safe: true
})
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif(enabled.rev, rev());
})
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif(enabled.maps, sourcemaps.write('.', {
sourceRoot: 'assets/styles/'
}));
})();
};
// ### JS processing pipeline
// Example
// ```
// gulp.src(jsFiles)
// .pipe(jsTasks('main.js')
// .pipe(gulp.dest(path.dist + 'scripts'))
// ```
var jsTasks = function(filename) {
return lazypipe()
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif(enabled.maps, sourcemaps.init());
})
.pipe(concat, filename)
.pipe(uglify, {
compress: {
'drop_debugger': enabled.stripJSDebug
}
})
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif(enabled.rev, rev());
})
.pipe(function() {
return gulpif(enabled.maps, sourcemaps.write('.', {
sourceRoot: 'assets/scripts/'
}));
})();
};
// ### Write to rev manifest
// If there are any revved files then write them to the rev manifest.
// See https://github.com/sindresorhus/gulp-rev
var writeToManifest = function(directory) {
return lazypipe()
.pipe(gulp.dest, path.dist + directory)
.pipe(browserSync.stream, {match: '**/*.{js,css}'})
.pipe(rev.manifest, revManifest, {
base: path.dist,
merge: true
})
.pipe(gulp.dest, path.dist)();
};
// ## Gulp tasks
// Run `gulp -T` for a task summary
// ### Styles
// `gulp styles` - Compiles, combines, and optimizes Bower CSS and project CSS.
// By default this task will only log a warning if a precompiler error is
// raised. If the `--production` flag is set: this task will fail outright.
gulp.task('styles', ['wiredep'], function() {
var merged = merge();
manifest.forEachDependency('css', function(dep) {
var cssTasksInstance = cssTasks(dep.name);
if (!enabled.failStyleTask) {
cssTasksInstance.on('error', function(err) {
console.error(err.message);
this.emit('end');
});
}
merged.add(gulp.src(dep.globs, {base: 'styles'})
.pipe(cssTasksInstance));
});
/************************* This is where I added it! *************************/
gulp.src(path.dist + 'styles/main.css')
.pipe(cssshrink())
.pipe(cmq())
.pipe(gulp.dest(path.dist + 'styles/main.css'));
return merged
.pipe(writeToManifest('styles'));
});
// ### Scripts
// `gulp scripts` - Runs JSHint then compiles, combines, and optimizes Bower JS
// and project JS.
gulp.task('scripts', ['jshint'], function() {
var merged = merge();
manifest.forEachDependency('js', function(dep) {
merged.add(
gulp.src(dep.globs, {base: 'scripts'})
.pipe(jsTasks(dep.name))
);
});
return merged
.pipe(writeToManifest('scripts'));
});
// ### Fonts
// `gulp fonts` - Grabs all the fonts and outputs them in a flattened directory
// structure. See: https://github.com/armed/gulp-flatten
gulp.task('fonts', function() {
return gulp.src(globs.fonts)
.pipe(flatten())
.pipe(gulp.dest(path.dist + 'fonts'))
.pipe(browserSync.stream());
});
// ### Images
// `gulp images` - Run lossless compression on all the images.
gulp.task('images', function() {
return gulp.src(globs.images)
.pipe(imagemin({
progressive: true,
interlaced: true,
svgoPlugins: [{removeUnknownsAndDefaults: false}, {cleanupIDs: false}]
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest(path.dist + 'images'))
.pipe(browserSync.stream());
});
// ### JSHint
// `gulp jshint` - Lints configuration JSON and project JS.
gulp.task('jshint', function() {
return gulp.src([
'bower.json', 'gulpfile.js'
].concat(project.js))
.pipe(jshint())
.pipe(jshint.reporter('jshint-stylish'))
.pipe(gulpif(enabled.failJSHint, jshint.reporter('fail')));
});
// ### Clean
// `gulp clean` - Deletes the build folder entirely.
gulp.task('clean', require('del').bind(null, [path.dist]));
// ### Watch
// `gulp watch` - Use BrowserSync to proxy your dev server and synchronize code
// changes across devices. Specify the hostname of your dev server at
// `manifest.config.devUrl`. When a modification is made to an asset, run the
// build step for that asset and inject the changes into the page.
// See: http://www.browsersync.io
gulp.task('watch', function() {
browserSync.init({
files: ['{lib,templates}/**/*.php', '*.php'],
proxy: config.devUrl,
snippetOptions: {
whitelist: ['/wp-admin/admin-ajax.php'],
blacklist: ['/wp-admin/**']
}
});
gulp.watch([path.source + 'styles/**/*'], ['styles']);
gulp.watch([path.source + 'scripts/**/*'], ['jshint', 'scripts']);
gulp.watch([path.source + 'fonts/**/*'], ['fonts']);
gulp.watch([path.source + 'images/**/*'], ['images']);
gulp.watch(['bower.json', 'assets/manifest.json'], ['build']);
});
// ### Build
// `gulp build` - Run all the build tasks but don't clean up beforehand.
// Generally you should be running `gulp` instead of `gulp build`.
gulp.task('build', function(callback) {
runSequence('styles',
'scripts',
['fonts', 'images'],
callback);
});
// ### Wiredep
// `gulp wiredep` - Automatically inject Less and Sass Bower dependencies. See
// https://github.com/taptapship/wiredep
gulp.task('wiredep', function() {
var wiredep = require('wiredep').stream;
return gulp.src(project.css)
.pipe(wiredep())
.pipe(changed(path.source + 'styles', {
hasChanged: changed.compareSha1Digest
}))
.pipe(gulp.dest(path.source + 'styles'));
});
// ### Gulp
// `gulp` - Run a complete build. To compile for production run `gulp --production`.
gulp.task('default', ['clean'], function() {
gulp.start('build');
});
Ideally, I would need to capture the main.css code and implement the cmq and cssshrink to it just before it is finally exported into the distribution folder.

I followed the post on Roots Discourse to help me do it; will update with full answer once done.
