JavaScript minifyer which can be integrated with a build of an ASP.NET application

Question

灵感来自这个答案 ..你们可以指点我类似的东西 - 可以集成到构建脚本中，或者可能直接集成到Visual Studio中吗？

Answer 1

Visual Studio projects use MSBuild, so you can integrate an MSBuild task that uses whatever javascript minifier you'd like.

This has been blogged about pretty extensively so I won't bother trying to come up with the specifics here... but a quick google search yielded some good posts.

Answer 2

The first link from womps post (Nick Berardi's blog post) uses the YUI Compressor for java . So if you don't want to have the extra dependency of java / installing java, then you can do the same thing with a .NET port of the most excellent YUI Compressor project -> YUICompressor for .NET .

Maybe that might help :)

*Disclaimer: I did most of that port.
