‘Minify’ is a plugin to minify JavaScript and/or CSS code and combine it
into one file on the fly. This will increase performance of website.
So you don’t need to do dozens HTTP request for every JavaScript or CSS file.
Minify plugin is more useful and faster with Funky cache plugin.

Usage

Install the minify plugin to your Frog CMS plugins directory:

$cd /path/to/frog/plugins/
$git clone git://github.com/dknight/minify.git

Activate minify plugin

Set the settings

So next step you need to create ‘cache’ directory in your document root and make it
writable. Due to security settings most webservers doesn’t allow you to create
directories dynamically, so you need to create it manually. Create it in your DOCUMENT_ROOT/cache/ and set writtable permissions.

$mkdir /website/root/cache/
$chmod 0666 /website/root/cache/

Usage in Frog CMS

<?php
$jsFiles = array(
    '/public/javascripts/jquery-1.3.2.min.js',
    '/public/javascripts/jquery.validate.min.js',
    '/public/javascripts/jquery.form.js',
    '/public/javascripts/frog.js'
);
$cssFiles = array(
    'path/to/master.css',
    'path/to/subpage.css',
    'path/to/ie-fix.css'
);

$js_minify  = Minify::factory('js');
$css_minify = Minify::factory('css');
