How to Disable the Minification for specific client libraries(Java Script/CSS) in AEM

How to Disable the Minification for specific client libraries(Java Script/CSS) in AEM

Minification refers to the process of removing unnecessary or redundant data without affecting how the resource is processed by the browser — e.g. code comments and formatting, removing unused code, using shorter variable and function names, and so on.

Minfication helps to reduce the size of the resources(Java Script and CSS) and improves the performance of page loading.

Sometimes we may required to disable the minifcation for specific Java script files may be due to the files are already minified or the issue with minification process.

There are two options to disable the minification for Java Scripts and CSS in AEM

Disable through Adobe Granite HTML Library Manager — Disable the minification globally for JS and CSS, this will impact all the client libraries in the system(both default and custom)

Disable Minfication for specific client libraries — Disable the minification for specific client library — JS/CSS, this will impact only the specific client library where this configuration is enabled.

Disable through Adobe Granite HTML Library Manager

Un-select minify option in Adobe Granite HTML Library Manager through configMgr(http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr/com.adobe.granite.ui.clientlibs.impl.HtmlLibraryManagerImpl)

Please note this is a global configuration and it will impact all the client libraries, non of the client libraries will be minified now and this will impact the performance. This approach is not recommended as this will disable the minification for all the custom and default system level client libraries.

Disable Minfication for specific client libraries

Enable the minification in global configuration(Adobe Granite HTML Library Manager) — http://localhost:4502/system/console/configMgr/com.adobe.granite.ui.clientlibs.impl.HtmlLibraryManagerImpl and disable the minification for required client libraries in client library level. This will only disable the minification for thespecific client library.

To disable the minification for specific client library add the below properties to client library node.

To disable Java Script Minification — add jsProcessor String[] default:none, min:none

To disable CSS Minification — add cssProcessor String[] default:none, min:none

Disabling the minification at global level is not recommended as this will impact the over all impact the website performance, enable the configurations to required client libraries to disable the minification for JS/CSS.
