      In this paper, a family of \([(q^k-1)t,ek]_q\)-codes is constructed, where \(k\ge2\) and \(e,t\in\mathbb{N}\) such that \(2\le e \le k \le t\). The weight distribution of these codes is computed, and it is shown that for some choices of their parameters, i.e. \(q^k-k< t < q^k\) and \(e=2\), are Griesmer-optimal. Since these codes satisfy the well-known Ashikhmin-Barg condition [\textit{A. Ashikhmin} and \textit{A. Barg}, IEEE Trans. Inf. Theory 44, No. 5, 2010--2017 (1998; Zbl 0932.94032)] they are minimal codes. Also, other applications for the construction of strongly regular graphs are shown.
