Googkit is a tool that boosts development cycle of your web app with Google Closure Library. You can setup your project only two steps so start developing quickly. You can also do such a complicated compiling... by one command!

Googkit requires Following commands. Install them if not installed yet.

First, you need to install Googkit.

1. Download and extract the latest version of Googkit

2. Put it into a preferred place:

   $ mv googkit /opt
   

3. Add environment variables:

   export GOOGKIT_HOME=/opt/googkit
   export PATH=$PATH:$GOOGKIT_HOME/bin
   

1. Download and extract the latest version of Googkit

2. Put it into a preferred place:

   $ move googkit C:\
   

3. Add environment variables

   Variable	Value
   GOOGKIT_HOME	C:\googkit
   PATH	Append ;%GOOGKIT_HOME%\bin

1. Create a project directory and initialize:

   $ mkdir my_project
   $ cd my_project
   $ googkit init
   

2. Download Closure Tools:

   $ googkit setup
   

3. Develop your web app in development/

   Modify existing scripts, or add your awesome scripts to development/js_dev.

   After adding/removing scripts, you need to update dependency information:

   $ googkit ready
   

4. Build your project

   Building the project including JavaScript files compilation improves performance and makes them unreadable:

   $ googkit build
   

   If it succeed, output files will be stored in production/.

You can run jsunit-style unit tests.

1. Create a HTML file for testing

   Copy example_test.html into the same directory as the target, then rename it to {target_name}_test.html.

   If you don't like the default name {target_name}_test.html, you can change it by test_file_pattern in googkit.cfg.

2. Write unit tests

3. Apply config changes and update dependency information:

   $ googkit ready
   

4. Run unit tests

   Open the test html file in your browser.

   If you want to run all tests, open development/all_tests.html in your browser with http scheme (doesn't work with file scheme).

Edit compiled_js in googkit.cfg. After editing, apply it with a following command:

$ googkit ready

Place them outside development/js_dev. Scripts that are in it will be compiled and removed in production.

Build with --debug option:

$ googkit build --debug

Then you can use debugging features in debug/.

Googkit generates a source map file script.min.js.map within debug/, so you can use Source Map V3 if your browser supports it.

For reason of obfuscation, source map file will NOT be stored in production/.
