jcompass (jcompass.jar)

Java JRuby with Sass Compass in a single jar

Download the latest copy of JRuby (At the time of this posting it's version 1.7.4) (http://www.jruby.org/download Find the "Complete Jar", second link from the bottom in the top group of links for the latest version)

The rest is command line:

Make a copy of jruby-complete-1.7.4.jar for the new singleton combined jar file

cp jruby-complete-1.7.4.jar jruby-complete.jar

Now install the gems locally

java -jar jruby-complete.jar -S gem install -i ./compass-gems shared --no-rdoc --no-ri java -jar jruby-complete.jar -S gem install -i ./compass-gems sass --pre --no-rdoc --no-ri java -jar jruby-complete.jar -S gem install -i ./compass-gems compass --pre --no-rdoc --no-ri

Now rename the jruby complete jar file to the name for the new compass jar

mv jruby-complete.jar jcompass.jar

Now compile together

jar uf jcompass.jar -C compass-gems .

ALL DONE! Now test it out:

java -jar jcompass.jar -S compass compile --help java -jar jcompass.jar -S compass compile --sass-dir /relative/or/full/path/to/source/scss/files/ --css-dir /relative/or/full/path/to/destination/css/files/ --force
