Anvil Uglify Extension

This extension requires anvil.js version 0.9.* or greater.

Installation

anvil install anvil.uglify

Usage

If this extension is installed and enabled, it will automatically minify .js files using the uglify-js node library.

Minifying All The Things

Add the following snippet to the build.json:

"anvil.uglify": {
	"all": "true"
}

Inclusive Minification

Add the following snippet to the build.json to compile only the listed files:

"anvil.uglify": {
	"include": [
		"./path/to/file1",
		"./path/to/file2",
		"./path/to/file4",
	]
}

Exclusive Minification

Add the following snippet to the build.json to compile everything but the listed files:

"anvil.uglify": {
	"exclude": [
		"./path/to/file1",
		"./path/to/file2",
		"./path/to/file4",
	]
}

Updates to UglifyJS V2

This plugin has recently upgraded to the new UglifyJS2. Most of the functionallity remains the same, but there are a few new things worth mentioning.

First, there is a new way to set the plugin up.

"anvil.uglify": {
    "output": {
        "js/main.min.js": [
            "another.js",
            "index.js"
        ],
        "js/vendor/deps.min.js": [
            "vendor/jquery.min.js",
            "vendor/knockout-min.js"
        ]
    }
}

This new output configuration allows for UglifyJS to do both concating and minifying. Each key in the output option is the name of the file being generated, followed by an array of the files to concat.

Source Maps
The other new feature is Source Maps. A Source Map is a generated file that helps map a minified or compiled file from it's minified version back to it's unminified file. Note as of 1/11/2013 that only Chrome and possibly FireFox are the only browsers supporting it.

To generate a source map, simply add the following to your build.json.

"anvil.uglify": {
	"sourceMaps": {
		"js/main.min.js": true | "/main.min.js.map"
	},
    "output": {
        "js/main.min.js": [
            "another.js",
            "index.js"
        ],
        "js/vendor/deps.min.js": [
            "vendor/jquery.min.js",
            "vendor/knockout-min.js"
        ]
    }
}

There are two ways to add the source map, either by true, or by adding a path to where you want the source map. You can use sourceMaps with the normal use case of the plugin as well. As long as the key corresponds to an actual file in the output. This means that you can still use anvil's normal concating as well as uglifyjs's concating. For example...

// src/index.js

//import("filea.js")
//import("fileb.js")
//import("filec.js")
"anvil.uglify": {
	"sourceMaps": {
		"index.min.js": true
	},
	include: [ "index.js" ]
}

This will output lib\index.js, lib\index.min.js, and lib\index.min.js.map.
