Hi,
Thank you for the kind words. Which new compress options aren't documented ? in :
Aggregate run on files, if you want to include/exclude every files of a directories you can use wildcard (like in the examples).
Thank you for the docs I hadn't seen them before.
In my case folder exclusion would be a great feature because I have a lot of jquery components that all start as jquery.* in different folders(scripts, tools...) I also have my own jquery extended plugins that start as jquery.mycompany... and only this ones need to be compressed. When I have some time I will try to add this feature if you want.
Hi,
Have you tried somethings like (not tested) :
<includes>
<include>**/jquery.mycompany**</include>
</includes>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/jquery.**</exclude>
</excludes>
IIRC include has higher priority than exclude.
Hi, I tried your fix with no result, also I noticed that using includes with excludes compressor stops working and there are no statistics.
Just tested with your example config and with other combinations. Here I put my configuration. It is almost finished. Maybe I'm gonna use excludes only.
<!-- Overwrite default file in target, same name but compressed -->
<excludes>
<!-- General exclude all min and jquery -->
<exclude>**/jquery**</exclude>
<exclude>**/*min.js</exclude>
<!-- Scripts folder -->
<exclude>**/mycompany.snapengage*</exclude>
<exclude>**/jshashtable*</exclude>
<!-- Tools folder -->
<!-- tools/colorpicker -->
<exclude>**/colorpicker**</exclude>
<exclude>**/layout**</exclude>
<exclude>**/eye**</exclude>
<exclude>**/utils**</exclude>
<!-- tools/jqplot -->
<exclude>**/*jqplot.js</exclude>
<exclude>**/jqplot**</exclude>
<!--tools/others -->
<exclude>**/sh**</exclude>
</excludes>
Many thanks for your time.
Also noticed this small bug found on thread : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3836548/yui-compressor-maven-plugin-doesnt-compress-the-js-files
If you really have to have nosuffix then you need to change the execution phase to "package". Otherwise files are not compressed.
IIRC it's a BAD idea, see my comment on StackOverflow
Thank you I saw your StackOverflow response and I tried second approach but finally I must use .min even if this isn't comfortable on development working with java templating engines (Apache Tiles, Thymeleaf).
I couldn't try first one because it's a Java Spring MVC project on an advanced stage and I'm not allowed to change folder structure.
The second approach also doesn't work for me because inside folder, let's say "scripts" for example there are files that will be compressed and ones that not. Following second approach only would copy files that this plugin compress and exclude all the others.
If you don't use the genered war by maven-war-plugin (no need, or creation via a other way like maven-assembly-plugin), it's fine. Else if you use package, the war file will not include compressed files (check the content).

Finally I must use the true because I usually work with templating java engines (Apache Tiles, Thymeleaf) and it's so tedious to spent time changing JS .min files for .js versions when developing.

Thank you, finally I solved it and using "nosuffix". On maven-war-plugin I excluded all my scripts (the ones that will be compressed using your plugin) following this thread http://utku.hoydaablogs.com/2008/12/19/how-to-exclude-web-resources-in-maven-2/ (the other approaches to exclude content from war didn't work for me). When building the war it only places minified JS/CSS with original names.
Congratulations for this tool, simple and effective. Is there any way to use exclusions for specific directories, not just JS files. Wildcards on directories don't work properly. It's possible to update documentation with all compress options? Not reflected in current documentation.
