AEM 6.5.2 JS files are not minified with gcc and yui

Hi,

 

JS minify is not happening in AEM 6.5.2 instance for our project. I tried with gcc (min:gcc;languageIn=ECMASCRIPT6) with Adobe Granite HTML Library Manager and also tried with default minify (min:yui). Both seems not working.

 

Thanks in Advance.

Finally, in AEM 6.5.8, the javascript uses apach rhino 1.7.7.1_1:

<dependency>

<artifactId>org.apache.servicemix.bundles.rhino</artifactId>

<version>1.7.7.1_1</version>

<groupId>org.apache.servicemix.bundles</groupId>

<scope>provided</scope>

</dependency>

 

Which has a bug for arrow function and it was release in 2017, after we change this bundle to:

<dependency>

<artifactId>org.apache.servicemix.bundles.rhino</artifactId>

<version>1.7.7.2_1</version>

<groupId>org.apache.servicemix.bundles</groupId>

<scope>provided</scope>

</dependency>

Just one small release upgrade, then problem resolved for the js compiler report syntax error for arrow function problem fixed.

You can write a simple java class to validate this.

But anybody knows this will break AEM support policy? Will Adobe care about this upgrade made by us?

in AEM 6.5.8, it uses mozilla rhino package with is ages older, that's why the ecmascript 6 arrow function cannot be parsed and report syntax error. AEM 6.5.9 has the latest and works out of the box.

I have a issue with minification one clientlib-postload.js file isnt minifying the other js files are minifying correctly.

I tried manually minifying its throwing errors while compiling

Hi EveryOne,

We should make sure that there should not be any error in JS files by checking at https://closure-compiler.appspot.com/home  and we can use jsProcessor as "min:gcc;languageIn=ECMASCRIPT_2016;languageOut=ECMASCRIPT_2016;compilationLevel=simple;obfuscate=true" at default Adobe Granite HTML Library Manager (com.adobe.granite.ui.clientlibs.impl.HtmlLibraryManagerImpl), then its minifying the JS files.

 

Can someone please let me know how to minify the CSS files at AEM6.5 and for cssProcessor  with "min:yui" is not minifying the CSS files.
