If you've a build process, that can also be a good time to create
minified versions of css/js, pre-process templates, etc. so that
everything is how you want it for your production environment.

Hello,
I am looking to develop feature in my project but want to check if
something already exists or there is existing pattern to implement it.
Bassically, I want in my TT templates add JS/CSS files into header. And
in production mode I want minify/aggregate 'em and save on disc so web
server could serve these minified and aggregated files directly.
How I plan to do it:
In TT layout template define array variable and all templates will be
adding there JS/CSS they need. Then in main template I will generate
code like:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="/minify/css?files=path/to/file1.css;path/to/file2.css" />
/minify/css will be action of controller minify to join and minify these
files and save them in /static subfolder as single file. Then I need to
configure webserver somehow to look for this file (good question - how
to do it...) and serve it directly instead of firing catalyst action.
Few problems tho:
1) How to name files to keep track of: list of files in minified file,
their update date.
2) How to remove old files. (probably with cron?)
Any ideas will be really appreciated!
Regards,
Pavel
