You can use this plugin:

https://github.com/promatik/PHP-JS-CSS-Minifier

It uses this minifier http://javascript-minifier.com/

Or use this script from http://javascript-minifier.com/examples

<?php
    // setup the URL, the JS and the form data
    $url = 'http://javascript-minifier.com/raw';
    $js = file_get_contents('./public/ready.js');
    $data = array(
        'input' => $js
    );

    // init the request, set some info, send it and finally close it
    $ch = curl_init($url);

    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $data);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

    $minified = curl_exec($ch);

    curl_close($ch);

    // output the $minified
    echo $minified;
?>

Don't forget to cache everything :)
