Usage Examples

Custom Options

In this example, custom options are used to do something else with whatever else. So if the testing file has the content Testing and the 123 file had the content 1 2 3, the generated result in this case would be Testing: 1 2 3 !!!

grunt.initConfig({
  browserstackTunnel: {
    options: {
      accessKey: 'fakeKey'
    },
    development: {
      options: {
        port: 9000
      }
    },
  },
})
