Does Jammit require a JavaScript compressor on the production server?

Does Jammit require YUI Compressor or the Google Closure Compiler to be installed on the production server in order to work?

Solution

  • No, it doesn't. It just requires the JVM (or equivalent, such as Open-JDK).

    Jammit depends on two third-party Gems: one for Google Closure and one for YUI Compressor. Both Gems are shipped with the corresponding compressor package bundled within the Gem.
