Sitecore does not support MVC 4 yet and I'd like to use System.Web.Optimization's bundling and minification.
Requests to bundles respond with 404 Not Found.
BundleConfig.cs :
public class BundleConfig
{
// For more information on Bundling, visit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=254725
public static void RegisterBundles(BundleCollection bundles)
{
bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jquery").Include(
"~/Scripts/jquery-{version}.js"));
bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jqueryui").Include(
"~/Scripts/jquery-ui-{version}.js"));
bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jqueryval").Include(
"~/Scripts/jquery.unobtrusive*",
"~/Scripts/jquery.validate*"));
// Use the development version of Modernizr to develop with and learn from. Then, when you're
// ready for production, use the build tool at http://modernizr.com to pick only the tests you need.
bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/modernizr").Include(
"~/Scripts/modernizr-*"));
bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/content/css").Include(
"~/Content/site.css",
"~/Content/960.gs/960.css"));
bundles.Add(new StyleBundle("~/Content/themes/base/css").Include(
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.core.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.resizable.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.selectable.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.accordion.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.autocomplete.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.button.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.dialog.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.slider.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.tabs.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.datepicker.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.progressbar.css",
"~/Content/themes/base/jquery.ui.theme.css"));
}
}
_Layout.cshtml :
@using System.Web.Optimization
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>@ViewBag.Title</title>
@Styles.Render("~/Content/css")
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/modernizr")
</head>
<body>
<div class="container_12">
<a href="/"><h1>Title</h1></a>
@Html.Action("Utilities", "Navigation")
@Html.Action("Menu", "Navigation")
@RenderBody()
</div>
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jquery")
@RenderSection("scripts", required: false)
</body>
</html>
Paths to bundles are virtual and do not map to physical folders.
Ignoring routes throws a NotImplementedException and 500 Internal Server Error:
routes.IgnoreRoute("content/{*pathInfo}");
routes.IgnoreRoute("bundles/{*pathInfo}");
.. but otherwise, requests are handled by Sitecore and respond with a 404 Not Found + Redirect.
I've also tried:
<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="false">
<remove name="BundleModule"/>
<add type="System.Web.Optimization.BundleModule" name="BundleModule"/>
</modules>
I can't get this all to work together. Help!

Mother of GOD!
Hackaround the following routes:
routes.MapRoute(
"sc_ignore_Bundles_Css",
"content/{*pathInfo}"
);
routes.MapRoute(
"sc_ignore_Bundles_Js",
"bundles/{*pathInfo}"
);
There is a Sitecore setting named "IgnoreUrlPrefixes", using a sitecore config include you can patch this setting to include for example "/bundles" which allows you to use the /bundles/* urls for the ASP.NET Web Optimization bundling features.

In my case, using Sitecore 6.6 update 5, I was able to get bundling to work by doing the following:
First, add this to the web.config:
<system.webServer>
<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="false">
<remove name="BundleModule"/>
<add type="System.Web.Optimization.BundleModule" name="BundleModule"/>
</modules>
...
Second, I added a pipeline method to the pipeline to register the bundles in the bundle table:
[UsedImplicitly]
public virtual void Process(PipelineArgs args)
{
BundleTable.EnableOptimizations = true;
RegisterBundles( BundleTable.Bundles );
}
private void RegisterBundles(BundleCollection bundles)
{
bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/jquery").Include(
"~/Scripts/jquery-{version}.js"));
}
Next, I added the pipeline method to the pipeline via a patch file:
<configuration xmlns:patch="http://www.sitecore.net/xmlconfig/">
<sitecore>
<pipelines>
<initialize>
<processor patch:before="processor[@type='Sitecore.Mvc.Pipelines.Loader.InitializeGlobalFilters, Sitecore.Mvc']"
type="MyStuff.Web.Pipelines.RegisterMyBundles, MyStuff.Web" />
</initialize>
</pipelines>
</sitecore>
</configuration>
Finally, I patched the IgnoreUrlPrefixes setting in sitecore to add the /bundles path
<configuration xmlns:patch="http://www.sitecore.net/xmlconfig/">
<sitecore>
<settings>
<setting name="IgnoreUrlPrefixes"
value="(all other sitecore paths here)|/bundles"/>
</settings>
</sitecore>
</configuration>
... Nothing else was needed - worked like a champ.
