Rake task to validates massively html files

gistfile1.rbx

# # Massive html validation task
# 
# This rake task comes from the nanoc validation task (http://gist.github.com/8961)
# Copy this Rakefile to the root of your htmls or add the task to your existing Rakefile 
# and run:
# 
#   rake validate
# 
# and that's all :)

  require 'w3c_validators'
  include W3CValidators

  task :validate do
    validate '.html'
    # add validate '.theextensionofyourhtml' to extend this task
  end

  # Colorize your output :) 
  def colorize(text, color_code); "#{color_code}#{text}\e[0m"; end
  def red(text); colorize(text, "\e[31m"); end
  def green(text); colorize(text, "\e[32m"); end
