Provides a custom ANT task that allows a user to scan a directory and minify all the JavaScript and CSS found. The user may optionally combine all each JS file or CSS file in a given directory into a single consolidated file. The user may also choose to recurse down the directory tree.

Most likely your JavaScript files will have dependancies on other JavaScript files, and thus needs to be included in a particular order. If you opt to combine or consolidate your JavaScript this rule still applies. As such you may use the embedded element to define the order of compressed JS files. Please note that you do not have to specify the order of all your JS files. As an example assume we have 5 JS files. If you specify the order for two of them as 1 and 2, then those two will be included first, then the remaining will be placed at the end in the order they were processed.

As another example assume we have 10 JS files. If you specify the order for two of them as 1 and 2, and another two as 4 and 5, then the remaining 6 will be placed in the first gap. That means they will be placed at position 3, after the first two, and before the last two.

NOTE: This is still a work in progress

Example:

<massminify dir="/some/path/here/1" minifyjs="true" minifycss="true" combinecss="all-css.min.css" />
<massminify dir="/some/path/here/2" minifyjs="true" combinejs="all-js.min.js" recurse="true" />
<massminify dir="/some/path/here/3" minifyjs="true" consolidatejs="all-js-everywhere.min.js" recurse="true" />
<massminify dir="/some/path/here/4" minifyjs="true" consolidatejs="all-js-everywhere.min.js" recurse="true">
   <order file="library.js" position="1" />
   <order file="file2.js" position="2" />
   <order file="last.js" position="4" />
</massminify>
