21The Closure Compiler performs checking, instrumentation, and
22optimizations on JavaScript code. The purpose of this README is to
23explain how to build and run the Closure Compiler.
24
25The Closure Compiler requires Java 6 or higher.
26http://www.java.com/
27
28
29//
30// Building The Closure Compiler
31//
32
33There are three ways to get a Closure Compiler executable.
34
351) Use one we built for you.
36
37Pre-built Closure binaries can be found at
38http://code.google.com/p/closure-compiler/downloads/list
39
40
412) Check out the source and build it with Apache Ant.
42
43First, check out the full source tree of the Closure Compiler. There
44are instructions on how to do this at the project site.
45http://code.google.com/p/closure-compiler/source/checkout
46
47Apache Ant is a cross-platform build tool.
48http://ant.apache.org/
49
50At the root of the source tree, there is an Ant file named
51build.xml. To use it, navigate to the same directory and type the
52command
53
54ant jar
55
56This will produce a jar file called "build/compiler.jar".
57
58
593) Check out the source and build it with Eclipse.
60
61Eclipse is a cross-platform IDE.
62http://www.eclipse.org/
63
64Under Eclipse's File menu, click "New > Project ..." and create a
65"Java Project." You will see an options screen. Give the project a
66name, select "Create project from existing source," and choose the
67root of the checked-out source tree as the existing directory. Verify
68that you are using JRE version 6 or higher.
69
70Eclipse can use the build.xml file to discover rules. When you
71navigate to the build.xml file, you will see all the build rules in
72the "Outline" pane. Run the "jar" rule to build the compiler in
73build/compiler.jar.
74
75
76//
77// Running The Closure Compiler
78//
79
80Once you have the jar binary, running the Closure Compiler is straightforward.
81
82On the command line, type
83
84java -jar compiler.jar
85
86This starts the compiler in interactive mode. Type
87
88var x = 17 + 25;
89
90then hit "Enter", then hit "Ctrl-Z" (on Windows) or "Ctrl-D" (on Mac or Linux)
91and "Enter" again. The Compiler will respond:
92
93var x=42;
94
95The Closure Compiler has many options for reading input from a file,
96writing output to a file, checking your code, and running
97optimizations. To learn more, type
98
99java -jar compiler.jar --help
100
101You can read more detailed documentation about the many flags at
102http://code.google.com/closure/compiler/docs/gettingstarted_app.html
103
104
105//
106// Compiling Multiple Scripts
107//
108
109If you have multiple scripts, you should compile them all together with
110one compile command.
111
112java -jar compiler.jar --js=in1.js --js=in2.js ... --js_output_file=out.js
113
114The Closure Compiler will concatenate the files in the order they're
115passed at the command line.
116
117If you need to compile many, many scripts together, you may start to
118run into problems with managing dependencies between scripts. You
119should check out the Closure Library. It contains functions for
120enforcing dependencies between scripts, and a tool called calcdeps.py
121that knows how to give scripts to the Closure Compiler in the right
122order.
