Getting Started with the Closure Compiler Application

The Hello World of the Closure Compiler Application

The Closure Compiler application is a Java command-line utility that compresses, optimizes, and looks for mistakes in your JavaScript. To try out the Closure Compiler application with a simple JavaScript program, follow the steps below.

To work through this exercise you need the Java Runtime Environment version 6.

  1. Download the Closure Compiler package

    Create a working directory called closure-compiler.

    Download the Closure Compiler compiler.jar file and save it in closure-compiler.

  2. Create a JavaScript file

    Create a file named hello.js containing the following JavaScript:

    // A simple function. 
    function hello(longName) { 
      alert('Hello, ' + longName); 
    } 
    hello('New User');

    Save this file in the closure-compiler directory.

  3. Compile the JavaScript file

    Run the following command from the closure-compiler directory:

    java -jar compiler.jar --js hello.js --js_output_file hello-compiled.js
    

    This command creates a new file called hello-compiled.js, which contains the following JavaScript:

    function hello(a){alert("Hello, "+a)}hello("New User");

    Note that the compiler has stripped comments, whitespace and an unnecessary semi-colon. The compiler has also replaced the parameter name longName with the shorter name a. The result is a much smaller JavaScript file.

    To confirm that the compiled JavaScript code still works correctly, include hello-compiled.js in an HTML file like this one:

    <html> 
    <head><title>Hello World</title></head> 
    <body> 
    <script src="hello-compiled.js"></script> 
    </body> 
    </html>

    Load the HTML file in a browser, and you should see a friendly greeting!
