Does app work without adding an endtag?

Unless injecting into a non-html file (i.e the JSON example) I don’t see any need to specify <!-- endinject --> in the html file.

So this pattern:

<!-- inject:js -->
<!-- any *.js files among your sources will go here as: <script src="FILE"></script> -->
<!-- endinject -->

Is the same as this one:

<!-- inject:js -->

But just shorter, more concise and less messy. The endtags IMO are a remnant of the usemin patterns where you actually specify all files beforehand unlike gulp-inject where files just come from a stream.

What do you think?

What do you mean some “files have already been injected” ? the inject tag is just a placeholder for where and what to inject. What is the usecase for the endinject in html file?

Basically doesn’t the algorithm just: (for html)

1. find start tag
2. sort out what kind
3. inject relevant files from stream

what is the use for the endinject tag? From what I can tell the inject tag can just be appended with the relevant files…

Am I mistaken? @joakimbeng

The way it looks to me is there’s no difference other than being able to have some content that will be removed between the tags.
