## Getting Started
This plugin requires Grunt `~0.4.5`

[![NPM](https://nodei.co/npm/grunt-multi-dest.png?compact=true)](https://nodei.co/npm/grunt-multi-dest/)

If you haven't used [Grunt](http://gruntjs.com/) before, be sure to check out the [Getting Started](http://gruntjs.com/getting-started) guide, as it explains how to create a [Gruntfile](http://gruntjs.com/sample-gruntfile) as well as install and use Grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, you may install this plugin with this command:

```shell
npm install grunt-multi-dest --save-dev
```

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

```js
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-multi-dest');
```

## The "multi_dest" task

### Overview
In your project's Gruntfile, add a section named `multidest` to the data object passed into `grunt.initConfig()`.

```js
grunt.initConfig({
  multidest: {
    your_target: {
        tasks: [
            "your",
            "tasks"
        ]
    },
  },
});
```

### Usage Examples

#### Copy

```js
grunt.initConfig({

    copy: {
        somefiles: {
            src: "./mydir/**",
            dest: "./myNormallyOutputDir/"
        }
    },
    multidest: {
        copy_some_files: {
            tasks: [
                "copy:somefiles"
            ]
            dest: ["./dist/distdir1", "./dist/distdir2"]
        },
    },
});
```
