Summary

This module lets you to exclude a set of assets (CSS and JavaScript) from the
active theme's .info file. The goal is to reduce the weight of resources sent
to the client to improve page load time, but also to facilitate the creation of
theme avoiding overloads CSS or JavaScript behaviors.

Each asset can be disabled for everyone or only for the a list of specified user
role(s).

Requirements

None.

Installation

Install as usual, see http://drupal.org/node/70151 for further information.

Usage

After installing and enabling the module, you can specify assets to be removed
from the active theme:

  1. Edit the .info file of your theme.

  2. For each CSS that you want to exclude from the page, add a line starting
    with the keyword unset, like this:

    unset[stylesheets][all][] = theStylesheetToDisable.css

    Note that the word all is not a media property but a wildcard to specify
    that the exclusion rule should be applied to all the users. You can specify
    existing roles. Eg, to disable the CSS only for anonymous users:

    unset[stylesheets][anonymous user][] = theStylesheetToDisable.css

    The roles may be combined, separated by commas:

    unset[stylesheets][role1, role2, role3][] = theStylesheetToDisable.css

  3. Similarly, add a line for each JavaScript file to exclude, specifying the
    keyword scripts:

    unset[scripts][all][] = theJSToDisable.js

    Again, you can refine the exclusion specifying the user role(s):

    unset[scripts][role1, role2, role3][] = theJSToDisable.js
  4. Clear all caches

Advanced usage

You can specify a generic file name that will be compatible with all
environments (development or production), whether the ressource will be minified
or not:

unset[scripts][all][] = jquery.cycle/jquery.cycle.*.js

Also, if you want to unset all the JavaScript of jQuery UI, simply add the
following line:

unset[scripts][all][] = jquery.ui/ui.*.js

See fnmatch() for further information about the
pattern syntax allowed in the filename.

Note: I precise here the name of the module as a prefix to clarify my info file.
