hi guys, i have configured the minify to work in my server .. my question is how to i check whether the files are caching or not ...

any suggestions ...

I suggest you always set $min_cachePath in /min/config.php. That way you know where the files are stored and can check them. Without that set, they may be in /tmp or several other directories depending on your OS.

Using .htaccess and RewriteRule? for Minify

I used the following within .htaccess to minify all .js and .css on my WordPress? MU site:

# .htaccess

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^(.*\.(css|js))$ min/index.php?f=$1&debug=0 [L,NC]

# Note &debug=0 is not needed but I set it to 1 when needed
# (when $min_allowDebugFlag = true; is set within config.php)

I found this works great as I used this method in minify v1.0 but appears to break css background images.

/*wp-content/themes/mytheme/style.css*/

#someid {
    background: #6E6A66 url('pics/mygif.gif') repeat-x top;
}

becomes (According to my Firebug output)

This is fixed by using a previous mentioned option within config.php and switching the css URI rewrite option off.

$min_serveOptions['rewriteCssUris'] = false;

I hope this helps anyone attempting to do the same.

I am interested in a way to explicitly reference a group name to serve programatically, not pulling from the querystring. I have a self-built MVC framework, and have put the following code in a a method for one of my controllers

(From my <Controller_Proxy> class)

public function serve(){
  Minify::setCache();
  Minify::serve('Groups', array('groups' => $include_script_groups,
                                'maxAge' => 31536000));
}

as mentioned in the userguide, but my URL pattern (already using mod_rewrite) is

/controllerName/actionName/param1/param2/...

I would like to pass something like

/proxy/serve/core_css

but would like to know an option to pass to tell Minify to serve the 'core_css' group.

@jasondaly: It looks like you want the "Files" controller. Instead of selecting a key based on PATH_INFO (what Groups does), you just give it the piece of the array you want:

if (isset($include_script_groups[$param1])) {
    Minify::serve('Files', array('maxAge' => 31536000,
                                 'files' => $include_script_groups[$param1]));
} else {
    // 404
}

if (isset($include_script_groups[$_GET['param1']])) { ...

How to make sure the $min_cachePath was set correctly? I find that even I set a invalid path, the program still works.
