DESCRIPTION

This plugin provides auto-compilation and on-wire compression of your application's CSS and Javascript. It is enabled by default, unless your "ConfigFileVersion" is greater or equal than 2.

It also supports js minifier, you will need to specify the full path. The jsmin can be obtained from <http://www.crockford.com/javascript/jsmin.html>.

Note that you will need to use "ConfigFileVersion" 2 to be able to configure jsmin feature.

skipped_js is a list of js that you don't want to compress for some reason.

init

Initializes the compression object. Takes a paramhash containing keys 'css' and 'js' which can be used to disable compression on files of that type.

js_enabled

Returns whether JS compression is enabled (which it is by default)

css_enabled

Returns whether CSS compression is enabled (which it is by default)

generate_css

Checks if the compressed CSS is generated, and if it isn't, generates and caches it. (In devel mode, it always regenerates it)

generate_javascript

Checks if the compressed JS is generated, and if it isn't, generates and caches it.

_generate_javascript_nocache

Generates compressed javascript, ignoring the cache completely.

If a JS or CSS file references another by a relative path, it will most likely end up being mis-requested under the CAS directory. Catch those requests, warn about them, and re-dispatch them internally to what is likely the right place.
