clientscriptpacker Extends ClientScript to minify and pack registered assets

  1. Requirements
  2. Usage

Extends ClientScript to minify and pack registered assets. It uses the PHP port of Douglas Crockford's jsmin by rgrove (https://github.com/rgrove/jsmin-php).

Requirements

I tested this extension with Yii 1.1.7 < but it should work from 1.1 onwards.

Usage

Copy the folder into the extensions folder of your app. Than in the configuration file add the following section under components:

'clientScript' => array(
  'class' => 'ext.ClientScriptPacker.ClientScriptPacker',
),

If this is done you can register your scriptfiles like you did before with Yii::app()->clientScript->registerScriptFile() and it will create the packed and minified javascript files in the assets folder. Your original JS files will stay untouched. If you want to re-pack the files just delete the files from your assets folder. I extended the registerScriptFile and it accepts an array as well with multiple js files.

IMPORTANT! You need to pass the path relatively to your `$_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']` to the registerScriptFile method.

If you experience any problem please give me a shout. I removed the caching because it didn't work well with the assets. The minify option is off by default because it can really slow down things. I need to rework this extension just need to find to do it.
