Publisher review:byuic just a set of custom wrappers around the Yahoo! YUI Compressor. The byuic project (which stands for build yui compressor and is pronounced like buick) is just a set of custom wrappers around the Yahoo! YUI Compressor for a number popular programming languages (i.e.) bash, perl, python, php, java, etc.
The goal of this project is to create a set of commandline scripts that find all the JavaScript and CSS files in a given web directory structure and to then hand those off to the YUI Compressor for compression and possibly obfuscation (depends on the given parameters).
Using the byuic wrappers one can easily integrate compression as a standard part of their projects normal production build process. Doing so reduces the overall file size of the project, lowers bandwidth requirements, and increases overall load times and performance.
The complicated compression and obfuscation logic is already handled by the YUI Compressor. You could of course do without byuic and integreate the native YUI Compressor into your build process by using the jar file and writing your own routines. byuic is simply a shortcut for those not wanting to write their own wrapper. With just 1 shell command your entire site can be processed.
byuic 1.2 is a JavaScript script for Development Tools scripts design by Brilaps, LLC.
It runs on following operating system: Windows / Linux / Mac OS / BSD / Solaris.
