Compress JS and CSS while deployement

I am using ANT to deploy build in to Tomcat Server. I Want to compress the static files CSS and JS only when i deploy to the server.

开发者_运维知识库any suggestion?

You can do something like that as part of the build (using YUI Compressor)

<target name="js.minify">
    <apply executable="java" parallel="false">
        <fileset dir="." includes="foo.js, bar.js"/>
        <arg line="-jar"/>
        <arg path="yuicompressor.jar"/>
        <srcfile/>
        <arg line="-o"/>
        <mapper type="glob" from="*.js" to="*-min.js"/>
        <targetfile/>
    </apply>
</target>

<target name="css.minify">
    <apply executable="java" parallel="false">
        <fileset dir="." includes="*.css"/>
        <arg line="-jar"/>
        <arg path="yuicompressor.jar"/>
        <arg line="--line-break 0"/>
        <srcfile/>
        <arg line="-o"/>
        <mapper type="glob" from="*.css" to="*-min.css"/>
        <targetfile/>
    </apply>
</target>
