Trouble with require.js and minimized js

[sparkyfen]

I'm also have a similar issue with my concatted/minified code. Digging into the issue, it seems that the non-minified code in oauth.js is in fact slightly minified which might be causing issues for people with task runners which minify their own and vendors code.

Taking a look into the Gruntfile.js for this project, it appears that when the Coffeescript is converted to Javascript, there is an uglify task which mangles the variables.

https://github.com/oauth-io/oauth-js/blob/master/Gruntfile.js#L56

I believe to fix the non-minified file, you can simply use the following for that task:

// Gruntfile.js
uglify: {
  my_target: {
    files: {
      './dist/oauth.min.js': ['dist/oauth.js']
    },
    options: {
      compress: false,
      beautify: true,
      mangle: false
    }
  }
}

After that, bower should still be updated to use the non-minified file (See #38 ) and then people can minify the code themselves.

Edit:

After pulling down the oauth-js code and compiling it myself, it looks like the minification is done via browserify and there is no option that I can find to tell it not to minify their "preamble" as they call it.

You best bet is to make sure your minification does not attempt to modify oauth.js (or oauth.min.js if you are still using the existing version without a bower.json override (See #38)).

What is easier is if browserify has an option to not minify and then we can create a non-minified oauth.js file and import that to minify ourselves.
