Concatenation option?

I may have missed something, but if not, I'd like to request:

  • being able to concatenate all files together into one file e.g. build.js
  • having two build files output
    • build.min.js (minified concatenated file)
    • build.js (concatenated file, no minification)
  • specify an output name for build files (default name could be "build"?)

Hope that makes sense... what do you think?

Thanks @objectkit - this is a great suggestion and definitely something I hope to integrate into this plugin. Unfortunately I don't have time to work on that right now but in a few months when I have more free time I'll should be able to get concatenation integrated.

Sorry, don't mean to be annoying, but I was wondering if this is still being considered as a feature to add. This would really set this plugin apart from others, as it would really simplify concatenating + minifying files. The minifying part is awesome already for my css/js files, so thank you for such a great plugin.

Yeah sorry about that - I totally see how this could be a big improvement for the plugin and I'd love to add this functionality but I'm swamped with school at the moment. When I have some time on my hands I'll do my best to get around to this.

Completely understandable, this is still the best minifier for Brackets anyway. Thanks for making a great plugin.

I was actually looking desperately for this feature to minify all files into one file. This option would be great. Looking forward to it. Thanks.

Good news - concatenation is finally here! Update has been pushed to Brackets registry and the plugin can be updated through Brackets. See information on how to use the new concatenation feature in the readme.
