Grunt task for minifying JavaScript files with Google Closure Compiler.
For grunt 0.3, install the latest 0.1.x version. Grunt 0.4 support starts with version 0.2.0.
Changelog
Installation
npm install grunt-gccAdd to grunt.js:
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-gcc');initConfig task:
gcc: {
dist: {
src: ['src/foo.js', 'src/bar.js'],
dest: 'dist/foobar.min.js'
}
}Options
You can pass options with:
gcc: {
dist: {
options: {
compilation_level: 'ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS'
},
src: ['src/foo.js', 'src/bar.js'],
dest: 'dist/foobar.min.js'
}
}compilation_level:
WHITESPACE_ONLY: Removes comments, line breaks, unnecessary spaces, and other whitespace.SIMPLE_OPTIMIZATIONSdefault : Previous plus shortens local variables, function names, and function parameters.ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS: Previous but also for global variables, function names, and function parameters.
For more specific explanation, visit the Closure Compiler Compilation Levels documentation.
banner:
Text banner that will be inserted at the beginning of minified file.
gcc: {
dist: {
options: {
banner: '<%= meta.banner %>'
},
src: 'src/foo.js',
dest: 'dist/foobar.min.js'
}
}report:
Minification reporting. Default is false. Can be:
false- no reportingmin- report original and minified sizesgzip- report original, minified, and minified & gzipped sizes
create_source_map:
Pass a path to a source map if you want to create one. The target directory for sourcemap has to exist.
gcc: {
dist: {
options: {
create_source_map: 'dist/foo.min.js.map'
},
src: 'src/foo.js',
dest: 'dist/foo.min.js'
}
}Rest of the Closure Compiler options as defined in --help
--charset VAL : Input and output charset for all
files. By default, we accept UTF-8 as
input and output US_ASCII
--compilation_level [WHITESPACE_ONLY : Specifies the compilation level to
| SIMPLE_OPTIMIZATIONS | ADVANCED_OPTI : use. Options: WHITESPACE_ONLY,
MIZATIONS] : SIMPLE_OPTIMIZATIONS, ADVANCED_OPTIMIZ
ATIONS
--compute_phase_ordering : Runs the compile job many times, then
prints out the best phase ordering
from this run
--create_name_map_files : If true, variable renaming and
property renaming map files will be
produced as {binary name}_vars_map.out
and {binary name}_props_map.out. Note
that this flag cannot be used in
conjunction with either variable_map_o
utput_file or property_map_output_file
--create_source_map VAL : If specified, a source map file
mapping the generated source files
back to the original source file will
be output to the specified path. The
%outname% placeholder will expand to
the name of the output file that the
source map corresponds to.
--debug : Enable debugging options
--define (--D, -D) VAL : Override the value of a variable
annotated @define. The format is
<name>[=<val>], where <name> is the
name of a @define variable and <val>
is a boolean, number, or a single-quot
ed string that contains no single
quotes. If [=<val>] is omitted, the
variable is marked true
--externs VAL : The file containing javascript
externs. You may specify multiple
--formatting [PRETTY_PRINT | PRINT_INP : Specifies which formatting options,
UT_DELIMITER] : if any, should be applied to the
output JS. Options: PRETTY_PRINT,
PRINT_INPUT_DELIMITER
--help : Displays this message
--js VAL : The javascript filename. You may
specify multiple
--js_output_file VAL : Primary output filename. If not
specified, output is written to stdout
--jscomp_dev_mode (--dev_mode) [OFF | : Turns on extra sanity checks
START | START_AND_END | EVERY_PASS] :
--jscomp_error VAL : Make the named class of warnings an
error. Options:accessControls,
checkRegExp,checkTypes, checkVars,
deprecated, fileoverviewTags,
invalidCasts, missingProperties,
nonStandardJsDocs, strictModuleDepChec
k, undefinedVars, unknownDefines,
visibility
--jscomp_off VAL : Turn off the named class of warnings.
Options:accessControls, checkRegExp,ch
eckTypes, checkVars, deprecated,
fileoverviewTags, invalidCasts,
missingProperties, nonStandardJsDocs,
strictModuleDepCheck, undefinedVars,
unknownDefines, visibility
--jscomp_warning VAL : Make the named class of warnings a
normal warning. Options:accessControls
, checkRegExp,checkTypes, checkVars,
deprecated, fileoverviewTags,
invalidCasts, missingProperties,
nonStandardJsDocs, strictModuleDepChec
k, undefinedVars, unknownDefines,
visibility
--logging_level VAL : The logging level (standard java.util.
logging.Level values) for Compiler
progress. Does not control errors or
warnings for the JavaScript code
under compilation
--manage_closure_dependencies : Automatically sort dependencies so
that a file that goog.provides symbol
X will always come before a file that
goog.requires symbol X. If an input
provides symbols, and those symbols
are never required, then that input
will not be included in the compilatio
n.
--module VAL : A javascript module specification.
The format is <name>:<num-js-files>[:[
<dep>,...][:]]]. Module names must be
unique. Each dep is the name of a
module that this module depends on.
Modules must be listed in dependency
order, and js source files must be
listed in the corresponding order.
Where --module flags occur in
relation to --js flags is unimportant
--module_output_path_prefix VAL : Prefix for filenames of compiled js
modules. <module-name>.js will be
appended to this prefix. Directories
will be created as needed. Use with
--module
--module_wrapper VAL : An output wrapper for a javascript
module (optional). The format is
<name>:<wrapper>. The module name
must correspond with a module
specified using --module. The wrapper
must contain %s as the code placeholde
r
--output_manifest VAL : Prints out a list of all the files in
the compilation. If --manage_closure_d
ependencies is on, this will not
include files that got dropped
because they were not required. The
%outname% placeholder expands to the
js output file. If you're using
modularization, using %outname% will
create a manifest for each module.
--output_wrapper VAL : Interpolate output into this string
at the place denoted by the marker
token %output%. See --output_wrapper_m
arker
--output_wrapper_marker VAL : Use this token as output marker in
the value of --output_wrapper
--print_ast : Prints a dot file describing the
internal abstract syntax tree and
exits
--print_pass_graph : Prints a dot file describing the
passes that will get run and exits
--print_tree : Prints out the parse tree and exits
--process_closure_primitives : Processes built-ins from the Closure
library, such as goog.require(),
goog.provide(), and goog.exportSymbol(
)
--property_map_input_file VAL : File containing the serialized
version of the property renaming map
produced by a previous compilation
--property_map_output_file VAL : File where the serialized version of
the property renaming map produced
should be saved
--summary_detail_level N : Controls how detailed the compilation
summary is. Values: 0 (never print
summary), 1 (print summary only if
there are errors or warnings), 2
(print summary if type checking is
on, see --check_types), 3 (always
print summary). The default level is 1
--third_party : Check source validity but do not
enforce Closure style rules and
conventions
--use_only_custom_externs : Specifies whether the default externs
should be excluded
--variable_map_input_file VAL : File containing the serialized
version of the variable renaming map
produced by a previous compilation
--variable_map_output_file VAL : File where the serialized version of
the variable renaming map produced
should be saved
--version : Prints the compiler version to stderr.
--warning_level [QUIET | DEFAULT | : Specifies the warning level to use.
VERBOSE] : Options: QUIET, DEFAULT, VERBOSEIn options that do not accept value, just pass true instead. Also with options that accept multiple values, pass
the values in an array to that option:
gcc: {
dist: {
options: {
debug: true, // Simple flag without input value
externs: [ // Multiple values
'jquery.js',
'underscore.js'
]
},
src: ...,
dest: ...
}
