[OpenLayers-Users] Minifying scripts

[Xavier Mamano (jorix)]

Hi,

The key to reducing more the code is to compress only the necessary
components (using simple mode of Closure by build.py). This is what has been
done in OpenLayers.mobile.js 375Kb and OpenLayers.light.js 280Kb
(OpenLayers.js 722Kb) 

Download the zip of 2.12 and see the folder /duild/, you will find
"mobile.cfg" and "light.cfg", edit one to create "your-configuration.cfg"
file and use it with "python build.py -c closure your-configuration.cfg
../OpenLayers-custom.js", and then use "OpenLayers-custom.js". That's all.

See https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/blob/master/build/README.txt !!

NOTE: "api" is the last stable release, so 2.12.
