Js Gradle Compiler ⚡

A simple Js compiler for gradle (tested only on Gradle 6.0+, but it should work with all versions). Given a folder containing .js files, the plugin will compile using Google closure compiler and minify them.

Instructions 📝

Import the plugin

Place one of these code snippets in build.gradle:

plugins {
  id "com.leobia.gradle.jsgradlecompiler" version "0.3.0"
}

or using legacy plugin app:

buildscript {
  repositories {
    maven {
      url "https://plugins.gradle.org/m2/"
    }
  }
  dependencies {
    classpath "gradle.plugin.com.leobia.gradle:jsgradlecompiler:0.3.0"
  }
}

apply plugin: "com.leobia.gradle.jsgradlecompiler"

Use the plugin

The usage of the plugin it's pretty simple, first you define the options (inside the build.gradle):

jsOptions {  
  inputPath = file("./resources/custom/")  
  outputPath = file("./resources/custom/minified/")  
  compilationLevel = "SIMPLE_OPTIMIZATIONS"  
  jsVersionIn = 'ECMASCRIPT_2015'  
  jsVersionOut = 'ECMASCRIPT5'  
  combineAllFiles = false  
  keepSameName = false  
}

Option	Type	Description
inputPath*	String	It tells the plugin where to search input files (not recursive)
outputPath	String	Path where output should be saved. Can be a directory or a single file. If it is a directory it will be used the input file name (the same behaviour is used if it is a file but the flag combineAllFiles is false)
compilationLevel	String	Possible values: WHITESPACE_ONLY, SIMPLE_OPTIMIZATIONS or ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS
jsVersionIn	String	Possible values
jsVersionOut	String	Possible values
combineAllFiles	Boolean	Tells if the output should be merged into single file or the input file name should be preserved
keepSameName	Boolean	if true keep the same name of input files otherwise it adds .min (this depends also by the value of combineAllFiles)
recursiveSearchOnSource	Boolean	if true inlcudes js files of sub-folders, excluding the outputPath

and then you can call the task:
