abridge v0.5.3
Abridge
npm install abridge
Abridge is a wild fork of node-minify module. It is not a drop-in replacement, but improves upon the original code in various ways.
- Dropped support for Google Closure
- Do not create temporary files, pipe to chld process's stdin instead
- Use streams wherever possible
- Supply minified data to callbacks
- Major API improvements
Usage
The old API style is mostly preserved.
var Minifier = require('abridge').Minifier;
new Minifier({
type: 'yui',
fileIn: 'public/js/base.js',
fileOut: 'public/js/base-min-gcc.js',
callback: function(err){
console.log(err);
}
});
But now we can just call the minify
function without creating an instance of Minify:
var abridge = require('abridge');
var options = {
type: 'yui',
fileIn: 'public/js/base.js',
fileOut: 'public/js/base-min-gcc.js',
callback: function(err){
console.log(err);
}
};
abridge.minify(options);
We can also supply a callback as a second argument, as per tradition:
var options = {
type: 'yui',
fileIn: 'public/js/base.js',
fileOut: 'public/js/base-min-gcc.js'
};
abridge.minify(options, function(err) {
console.log(err);
});
And our callback is given the minified data:
abridge.minify(options, function(err, data) {
console.log(err, data);
});
Also fileOut
and type
are optional. If CSS is detected, Abridge will default to YUICompressor, as uglifyjs compresses only JavaScript. However, if minifying JavaScript, Abridge will use Uglify-js instead, as it is more efficient:
var options = {
fileIn: 'public/js/base.js'
};
abridge.minify(options, console.log);
In fact you no longer need an options object:
var fileIn = ['public/js/base.js', 'public/js/somn.js'];
var fileOut = 'public/js/common.js';
abridge.minify(fileIn, fileOut, console.log);
In the simplest case, we have:
abridge.minify('public/js/base.js', function(err, data) {
});
Note
To use YUICompressor (default for CSS files) you must have Java installed.
