Closure Compiler as a Sublime3 Build System

1. Install the Java SDK -- http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html
2. Download the Closure application -- http://dl.google.com/closure-compiler/compiler-latest.zip
3. Copy the JAR to a convenient location (e.g. ~/compiler.jar)
4. Create new build system in Sublime -- Tools > Build System > New Build System...
5. Paste the following into the file: (compiles *.dev.js -> *.js)

   {
   	"shell_cmd": "java -jar ~/compiler.jar --js_output_file ${file_base_name/.dev/''/g}.js ${file_name}",
   	"selector" : "source.js"
   }
   

6. Save the file.
7. Enjoy quick builds!

Alternate configs

• Compile *.js -> *.min.js

   {
   	"shell_cmd": "java -jar ~/compiler.jar --js_output_file ${file_base_name}.min.js ${file_name}",
   	"selector" : "source.js"
   }
  

• Output compiled code to console (only)

   {
   	"shell_cmd": "java -jar ~/compiler.jar ${file_name}",
   	"selector" : "source.js"
   }
