Join multiple Coffeescript files into one file? (Multiple subdirectories)

Question

I\'ve got a bunch of .coffee files that I need to join into one file.

I have folders set up like a rails app:

/src/controller/log_controller.coffee
/         


        

Answer 1

From the CoffeeScript documentation:

-j, --join [FILE] : Before compiling, concatenate all scripts together in the order they were passed, and write them into the specified file. Useful for building large projects.

So, you can achieve your goal at the command line (I use bash) like this:

coffee -cj path/to/compiled/file.js file1 file2 file3 file4

where file1 - fileN are the paths to the coffeescript files you want to compile.
