如何连接和缩小多个 CSS 和 JavaScript 文件与 Grunt.js (0.3.x)

concat.js is being included in the concat task's source files public/js/*.js. You could have a task that removes concat.js (if the file exists) before concatenating again, pass an array to explicitly define which files you want to concatenate and their order, or change the structure of your project.

If doing the latter, you could put all your sources under ./src and your built files under ./dest

src
├── css
│   ├── 1.css
│   ├── 2.css
│   └── 3.css
└── js
├── 1.js
├── 2.js
└── 3.js

Then set up your concat task

concat: {
js: {
src: 'src/js/*.js',
dest: 'dest/js/concat.js'
},
css: {
src: 'src/css/*.css',
dest: 'dest/css/concat.css'
}
},

Your min task

min: {
js: {
src: 'dest/js/concat.js',
dest: 'dest/js/concat.min.js'
}
},

The build-in min task uses UglifyJS, so you need a replacement. I found grunt-css to be pretty good. After installing it, load it into your grunt file

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-css');

And then set it up

cssmin: {
css:{
src: 'dest/css/concat.css',
dest: 'dest/css/concat.min.css'
}
}

Notice that the usage is similar to the built-in min.

Change your default task to

grunt.registerTask('default', 'concat min cssmin');

Now, running grunt will produce the results you want.

dest
├── css
│   ├── concat.css
│   └── concat.min.css
└── js
├── concat.js
└── concat.min.js

I agree with above answer. But here is another way of CSS compression.

You can concat your CSS by using YUI compressor:

module.exports = function(grunt) {
var exec = require('child_process').exec;
grunt.registerTask('cssmin', function() {
var cmd = 'java -jar -Xss2048k '
+ __dirname + '/../yuicompressor-2.4.7.jar --type css '
+ grunt.template.process('/css/style.css') + ' -o '
+ grunt.template.process('/css/style.min.css')
exec(cmd, function(err, stdout, stderr) {
if(err) throw err;
});
});
};

I want to mention here a very, VERY, interesting technique that is being used in huge projects like jQuery and Modernizr for concatenate things.

Both of this projects are entirely developed with requirejs modules (you can see that in their github repos) and then they use the requirejs optimizer as a very smart concatenator. The interesting thing is that, as you can see, nor jQuery neither Modernizr needs on requirejs to work, and this happen because they erase the requirejs syntatic ritual in order to get rid of requirejs in their code. So they end up with a standalone library that was developed with requirejs modules! Thanks to this they are able to perform cutsom builds of their libraries, among other advantages.

For all those interested in concatenation with the requirejs optimizer, check out this post

Also there is a small tool that abstracts all the boilerplate of the process: AlbanilJS

You don't need to add the concat package, you can do this via cssmin like this:

cssmin : {
options: {
keepSpecialComments: 0
},
minify : {
expand : true,
cwd : '/library/css',
src : ['*.css', '!*.min.css'],
dest : '/library/css',
ext : '.min.css'
},
combine : {
files: {
'/library/css/app.combined.min.css': ['/library/css/main.min.css', '/library/css/font-awesome.min.css']
}
}
}

And for js, use uglify like this:

uglify: {
my_target: {
files: {
'/library/js/app.combined.min.js' : ['/app.js', '/controllers/*.js']
}
}
}

I think may be more automatic, grunt task usemin take care to do all this jobs for you, only need some configuration:
