Webhelpers CSS and JavaScript Minification Upgrade to WebHelpers

Project description

What is MinificationWebHelpers?
===============================

Consider the MinificationWebHelpers_ as an extension to WebHelpers_.

Basicly it adds two more options to the WebHelpers_ javascript_include_tag_
and stylesheet_link_tag_ functions:

* **minified**: Minifies, ie, reduces as much as possible each of the files
passed to it's minimum size to reduce page load times.
* **combined**: Joins all files passed into a single one to reduce server
requests which in turn reduces page load times.


For an up-to-date read of the documentation, please `read the documentation
page on site`__.

Usage
-----

On your own Pylons_ application, inside ``<app>/lib/helpers.py`` you add::

from minwebhelpers import *


Then, inside a template you could have::

<head>
${ h.javascript_include_tag('/js/file1.js', '/js/file2.js',
minified=True, combined=True )}
</head>

The above would mean ``file1.js`` and ``file2.js`` would be combined and then
minimized.

Instalation
-----------

It's as easy as::

sudo easy_install MinificationWebHelpers


Or if you wish to install current trunk::

sudo easy_install
