How to aggregate JS assets on Mean.io

Question

I am new to Mean.io and I am trying to compile an external .js file into my package, but I am doing it wrong because it is not added to aggregated.js.

This is what I did:

importer.register(function(app, auth, database) { importer.aggregateAsset('js', 'xml2json.min.js'); //We enable routing. By default the Package Object is passed to the routes importer.routes(app, auth, database); //We are adding a link to the main menu for all admin users VavelImporter.menus.add({ title: 'importer example page', link: 'importer example page', roles: ['admin'], menu: 'main' }); return importer; }); 

Important line: importer.aggregateAsset ('js', 'xml2json.min.js'); My asset (xml2json.min.js) is under the importer / public / assets / js / xml 2json.min.js .

I need someone to tell me where to place this asset, so Mean.io finds this file.

Thanks.

It turns out that he aggregated assets well. How Mean.io docs say

All resources, such as images, javascript libraries, and CSS styles, must be within public / assets / {img | js | css} / package file structure.

By default, all javascript is automatically wrapped in an anonymous function if {global: true} is not set so as not to embed javascript within the contained area.

Then, when you can use the external functionality of JS.
