Hello everybody,
Yesterday we have finished Mincer [1] - 100% native JavaScript
port of the Sprockets. For those who not familiar, it's an awesome
web assets processor, that allows you to write JS and CSS assets
in almost any language you like (CoffeeScript, LESS, Stylus) more
than that it allows you to "require" assets into each other, regardless
to the language with help of special directives:
``` stylus
//= require bootstrap.less
h1
color red
```
It's a pure port, although there are some differences (beside language
difference) in the internal structure, it does it's work pretty well. The
main difference is that finding and compiling assets were divided into
two phases, e.g.:
``` ruby
asset = environment.find_asset 'app.js'
asset.to_s # -> compiled body of the asset
```
transforms into:
``` javascript
environment.findAsset('app.js').compile(function (err, asset) {
asset.toString(); // -> compiled body of the assets
});
```
For those who want to hack into sources I have prepared some
API docs [2], which I hope will help to understand sources little bit..
