Punch Agency Closure Compiler

1.0.8 verified Fri May 01 auth: no javascript deprecated

punch-gulp-closure-compiler is a self-contained wrapper for Google Closure Compiler, version 1.0.8, intended for use with Gulp. It was released on 2014-03-25 and has not seen any updates since. It provides a minimal API to pass JavaScript files through Closure Compiler for minification and optimization. Compared to gulp-closure-compiler or google-closure-compiler, this package is largely obsolete, unmaintained, and should not be used in new projects. It depends on closure-compiler via com.google.javascript:closure-compiler and has no active release cadence.
