Ristretto

A simple dependency management and javascript concatenation library.

Install

npm install ristretto

Usage

Ristretto exports only one method, namely bundle. Its options are passed as an object with the following keys.

All keys but main are optional

• main : the main file to compile, all dependencies will be resolved and bundled in the right order after being wrapped in a fake CommonJS environment.
• target : javascript output file, if undefined, the function call returns the output.
• raw : additionnal files to include without any wrapping/processing. This can be useful to include libraries such as web frameworks which are not CommonJS compatible. Those files are added in order.
• minify : if set to true, will run the concatenated output through uglify
• libraries : a module-filename mapping for absolute requires, e.g. util which does not make sense in a browser context.
• copyright : a comment to be added to the top of the output file.

Example

ristretto = require 'ristretto'
ristretto.bundle
  target    : 'target.js'
  main      : 'app.coffee'
  raw       : ['globals.js', 'jquery.min.js', 'etc.js']
  minify    : true
  libraries :
    util : 'libraries/util.js'
    foo  : process.ENV['HOME']+'/.node_libraries/foo'
