compile and join coffeescript files

问题

I have the following structure:

/lib
  / myfile.js.cofee
  / secondfile.js
/src

and i would like to compile them into

/lib
  / myfile.js.cofee
  / secondfile.js
/src
  / awesomefile.min.js

I have read about Cakefiles, but i'm not sure how to exactly do this.

Thanks, Mike

If you happen to be using something based on connect (e.g. express), I'd recommend using connect-assets. If not, then grunt may be a good bet, as was previously suggested. If you'd like to do this yourself using a Cakefile, here is one approach you could use:

Note that the convention is to build from src to lib (which is the reverse of what you stated in the question). I'll use that convention below, but you can easily switch it back if needed.

$ npm install snockets

place the following in src/awesomefile.coffee:

#= require secondfile.js
#= require myfile.js.coffee

create a Cakefile with the following:

fs = require 'fs'
Snockets = require 'snockets'

NAME = 'awesomefile'
INPUT_FILE = "src/#{NAME}.coffee"
OUTPUT_FILE = "lib/#{NAME}.min.js"

task 'build', 'Build lib/ from src/', ->
  snockets = new Snockets()
  js = snockets.getConcatenation INPUT_FILE, async: false, minify: true
  fs.writeFileSync OUTPUT_FILE, js

task 'clean', "remove #{OUTPUT_FILE}", ->
  fs.unlinkSync OUTPUT_FILE

Now you can just do:

$ cake build

and that will create a lib/awesomefile.min.js.

You can have the files in src track their own dependencies, or you can list the order to be included in a single file like I've done above. For more, you can check out the snockets repository. Also note that the compiling chapter chapter of The Little Book on CoffeeScript is a good resource for learning about cake files.

Might not be the exact answer you expected.

Grunt.js at www.gruntjs.com is a very helpful buildtool and certainly includes a lot of stuff that you need to do on a daily basis with a webproject.
