A javascript minifier

JavascriptMinifier is an extension for typolight that automatically packs javascript filesfor you. It also provides an inclusion mechanism.

It uses the Nicolas Martin's PHP port of Dean Edwards JavaScript's Packer.

All you have to do is to create the frontend module "Javascript Minifier", select thefiles you want to pack in the file tree and add the module in your page or layout. Istrongly recommend that you put it just before closing the body tag, for perfs sake.

If you're an extension developer, you can add files to be minified just like you use TL_JAVASCRIPT :

$GLOBALS[ 'TL_JAVASCRIPT_MIN' ][] = 'path/to/file.js';

Options

The module support two options :

• Encode : Set on to use minifier. If not set, files will only be concatenated ( default : on )
• Debug : Set on not to cache the resulting file. Useful for developers. ( default : off )
• Resolve dependencies : Set on to use the inclusion mechanism

Assembling order

Files from $GLOBALS[ 'TL_JAVASCRIPT_MIN' ] are treated first, in the order they appear in the array.

Then, each file selected in the module configuration is included, in alphabetical order, so you can determine the inclusion order simply by prefixing files with numbers.

If the inclusion mechanism is on, you can add on top of your javascript files things like :
// require 'other-file.js'

Path is relative to the including file.
