Parse HTML file to generate list of JS and CSS paths for UglifyJS/UglifyCSS

I am looking for a script that would read through an HTML file (actually a Smarty template file, but that shouldn't matter), parse the paths out of <script></script> and <link/> tags, and use them as input for UglifyJS/UglifyCSS (or other minification software). Bonus points if the script is able to download remote resources as well.

I want to minify my resources in the order they appear within my HTML files without having to manually build the list. Perhaps some gulp plugin could accomplish such a task?

I can write a script to do this myself, but I would rather use something that has been tested and has a substantial community behind it.

Apologies if you meant only in JS.

Heres a bit of sed:

sed -n "s/<\(script\|link\)\+.*\(href\|src\)=\"\([^\'\"]*\)\".*/\3/p" <filename>

Will return the value of the href or source in a script or link tag in a file.
