How can I obfuscate JavaScript?

I have been working on a web app in JavaScript. Nearing complete.

How do I protect me JavaScript code from someone copying it? I mean if you view my page source, it references the .js files and one could really steal these.

Should I be using something else? RoR?

Does Google Maps have a RoR API?

Your closest bet would be to use something like

• A Javascript Obfucator
• A Javascript Minifier
• A Javascript Packer

People will still be able to steal and use your code though, it will just be harder to modify.
