  • I like to learn. A downvote without comment teach nothing. I beg for a comment, please – joaquin Dec 19 '10 at 15:47
  • Presumably from somebody who, probably still in school and in denial about reality, thinks every line of code should be open source. – Glenn Maynard Dec 19 '10 at 17:14
  • @GlennMaynard, I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with openness. Some people just want to obfuscate their code so it becomes faster... FLOSS > all too. – corazza Aug 09 '12 at 12:35
  • (Can't tell if trolling. Obfuscation doesn't make code faster.) – Glenn Maynard Aug 09 '12 at 23:02

You can use UglifyJS, but if you want to call it from Python, do this:

sudo apt-get install node-uglify - install
uglifyjs --overwrite filename.js - test

And, in Python:

from subprocess import call
call(["uglifyjs", "--overwrite", "filename.js"])

Now you can minimize/obfuscate your Javascript code from Python.

UglifyJS works with Node.js (or anything else that supports CommonJS), and if I say it works then I mean "It just works", most of the time the resulting code is smaller than the one you get with, for example, Googles Closure compiler. And you don't have to worry about it breaking your code if you don't specify which properties / objects etc. it should not rename, and it's really fast too.

  • but i use django, so i think it is not useful for me . yes ? – zjm1126 Dec 19 '10 at 13:47
  • That depends, what exactly do you want to do? Minimize on the client? Minimize on the server when requested? (uglify can be run as a shell command) Minimize for deployment? – Ivo Wetzel Dec 19 '10 at 14:01
