DESCRIPTION:

A simple and clear Ruby REST API to Google Closure Compiler service.

FEATURES:

The package comes with a jsc commands which accepts several options, run

jsc --help

for help.

More in details:

• Ruby API actually is a single function call (ex: JSCompiler.compile(file_name, “statistics”, “SIMPLE_OPTIMIZATIONS”) )

• Handling of JSON responses, parse and print them (same output of the Google web interface!)

• Handling of Server Errors responses

• Compile a piece of code, a file or a whole directory

• Emacs snippet to compile code your code for errors and warnings

Check Google API Reference for more info about accepted parameters.

SYNOPSIS:

Compile a file:

ruby bin/jsc -f js/compiled_code.js

Compile a file, check for errors:

ruby bin/jsc -f js/errors.js -e

Compile a file, check for warnings:

ruby bin/jsc -f js/warnings.js -w

Compile a file and get compression stats:

ruby bin/jsc -f js/compiled_code.js -s

Compile a piece of code, check for errors:

ruby bin/jsc -e "function("

NOTE: the library is a single file, so you can include it and just call the JSCompiler.compile(file_name, operations, compilation_level) function everywhere in your code. Check the plugins dir for samples or snippets. UPDATE 20091212: bin file plugins/bin/google_closure_compiler not working at the moment due to changes in project name and structure
