Add an "outputDirectory" option #15

Closed mickaeltr closed 11 years ago

mickaeltr commented 11 years ago

Hi,

I think it would be handy to have control over the output directory of the optimized files, through an extra option (such as yuicompressor does, for instance).

The problem I currently have is that my optimized file is replaced by the non-optimized files when packaging, because output directories are identical. With an "outputDirectory" option, I could have my optimized file generated in a dedicated folder, then add it to the package as external WAR resource.

What do you think? Do you know any better strategy for adding optimized files in the final WAR ?

Thanks.

Setting the output directory should be possible via the require.js config file. Can you post the contents of the file referenced by the plugin's configFile option?

That's correct! I somehow missed this option :

//The directory path to save the output. If not specified, then //the path will default to be a directory called "build" as a sibling //to the build file. All relative paths are relative to the build file. dir: "../some/path",

(source : https://github.com/jrburke/r.js/blob/master/build/example.build.js)

Sorry about that.
