Hi Matt,

In v0.9 and later, Ant was dropped from the Dojo build system, and it was considerably simplified. Also, Sitepen (http://www.sitepen.com) have written the official Dojo builder, built using Adobe Flex, so I didn’t feel the need to update my Dojo Builder.

You can get SitePens tool from http://sitepen.com/labs/toolbox/

Is there an updated version of this tool that will work with dojo 0.9 or higher?

Jason,

The CSS and HTML template files can be baked into the dojo.js file by checking the”Intern Strings” checkbox in DojoBuilder. The images cannot be included in the JavaScript file though, for obvious reasons.

Shane,
Thanks for the info. When you say “the css and html template files are often not baked into dojo.js”, does this mean they cannot be? Also, some modules have images referenced, I am hoping I can wrap up everything into one file. Thanks for your help.

Hi Jason,

Creating a custom build of Dojo places all of the files you you are interested in (and have specified in your build profile) are written to the dojo.js file. The src folder is copied by default in case you want to use some of the other functionality of Dojo that you have not baked into the main file.

There are still some files that cannot be be baked into dojo.js, mainly the internationalization files. Also, the css and html template files are often not baked into dojo.js. Therefore, the src folder is generally needed.

However, if you do not use widgets, and dont need the internationalization code, then you should be able to simply delete the src folder after you’ve created your custom build.

Hello,
I am wondering if it’s possible to create a custom dojo build where there is no src directory, rather, everything is bundled into only one file (dojo.js). Ideally, I would like to be able to accomplish this using the Eclipse DojoBuilder utility if possible. As I understand it, when modules are “baked” into a custom build, this eliminates the requirement to do a dojo.require(“module name”) but still pulls the files in from the src directory which is what I want to avoid. Thanks.

Venkat,

You do not need Eclipse. Dojo Builder will work within Eclipse if you already have it, but it also can work as a standalone program. You should see a link at the end of the second paragraph to the windows version of the program – http://dojobuilder.skynet.ie/downloads/DojoBuilder.zip , and you can get the Linux version at http://dojobuilder.skynet.ie/downloads/DojoBuilder.tar.gz

I am more a use than a programmer.

I arrived here from your reply to my post in the dojo interest group about custom build.

I read above that I need eclipse. When I visited eclipse it appears to be a huge program and says I can choose what I want to install.

What do I need from eclipse to run dojo builder?

Thanks

Venkat

Hey Yogesh,

Thanks a lot. The third (and hopefully first non-beta) release should be coming soon. It’ll support non-Dojo modules and XD builds, as well as many bug fixes. Keep your eyes peeled

Does it work if you don’t use the non-Dojo namespace? In this case it works perfectly for me. I’m working on getting external namespaces working too, so you may have to wait a short while

and this error I receive with ANY nightly build (default dojo loader and non-custom dojo profile)

Ok, It tried with nightly an xdomain build, but got this error:

Ah, there seems to be some bug with Eclipse and my code when used with OSX. I tried to do a multiplatform build, but the Mac OSX one is giving errors, even crashing my developement Eclipse if I even have th OSX plugins installed in Eclipse. This is something I will definitely have to look in to, and I’ve updated the posting to reflect this.

Thanks for the feedback – if you have any log files, could you please send them on to me as I do not have an OSX box to test this on. It’s shaneosullivan1 at gmail dot com

Thanks,

Shane

I am using the nightly build with a customized build file. (For starters, I’m just trying to build the kitchen sink profile)

I am on OS X (Tiger)

Ah, so it uses Python – yes this is a problem. I haven’t been able to get Python working with Ant when executed from Eclipse. I managed to weed it out for the standard build process, and the Dojo team has removed it completely in the post-0.4.1 nightly builds (at least for the standard build) since it causes so much trouble.

I’ll look into weeding it out for the XDomain builds, and update the application over the next few days.

Until then, try the nightly build with XDomain – hopefully it doesn’t use Python any more either.
