One line script to minify js css directory using yuicompressor
February 11th, 2009
The default installation of WordPress use full version of css and javascript library. In order to minify all of these files, I wrote this bash script to minify all of them. There will be no progress bar while minifying, so be patient.
cd wordpress find -H . -type f -writable \( -name \*.css -o -name \*.js \) \ -exec sh -c "yuicompressor {} -o /tmp/yui.tmp && mv /tmp/yui.tmp {}" \;
This will only work under POSIX system.
Findutils should be included in most popular Linux distros.
Yuicompressor can be downloaded from here.
