What is the best way to generate "static" js in Sinatra

Question

I have a javascript file which is generated by simple ruby-script and saved in public/js/ dir. It's working, but i want to use something like assets pipeline (ye, i know there are few for sinatra), so this file will be generated after each deployment.

What is the best way to do this?

You'd probably want to use git hooks in combination with a rake task. Take a look at: http://jimneath.org/2012/05/05/precompile-assets-using-a-git-hook.html
