Gulp plugin about dr-svg-sprites

[shakyShane]

If this isn't already in the works, I'd be happy to do it.

We haven't made any plans just yet for a gulp version - but knock yourself out ;)

[davidspiess]

I'd be happy to help too :)

I've taken a look & the current codebase doesn't lend itself well to a streaming interface I'm afraid :(

I'm going to steal all the good bits from this lib & reconstruct it into a streaming module - that way we can easily create a gulp-plugin out of it.

Got the absolute basics working:

Cool!! :) I like how you split up the codebase in different modules. Clean & beautiful! What do you both think of merging @shakyShane's architecture changes in this repository? The gulp and grunt plugins should imo only be a lightweight wrapper around dr-svg-sprites.

[shakyShane]

Thanks! I didn't want to step on anyones toes, but to make it play nicely with streams it required a different approach, that's all. :)

Now I have the challenge of reimplenting the bits I stripped out last night haha!

[davidspiess]

It was only an idea, nothing you have to! :))
I will close this issue now. Your gulp plugin works great!

I've been off work the last couple of weeks - so I've only had time to comment here sporadically.

@Davbeer I totally agree that it would be ideal to have gulp/grunt/whatever plugins as wrappers (dr-svg-sprites got split out from grunt-dr-svg-sprites to accomodate this sort of thing - but I hadn't foreseen gulp).

I would love to modularise it even further if possible - as long as I can retain the current features (some of them bespoke - granted).

@shakyShane I'll pick and choose some of your ideas back ;)
