Installation

gem install minify

Usage

Minify Strings

Minify::Parser.call("text/html", "<html>    <head></head>   </html>")
# => "<html><head></head></html>"

This is the same as:

Minify::Parser.html("<html>    <head></head>   </html>")

Minify Directories

Minify.minimize('public/index.html', 'public/js/**/*')

This will copy the files to ./.minimize-cache and minimize the original files. If the file we're trying to minimize already exists in the cache and the mtime is the same, we leave it alone.

Remember to add .minimize-cache/**/* to your .gitignore file.

Minify.maximize('public/index.html', 'public/js/**/*')

If the file we're trying to maximize is in ./.minimize-cache, then we return that files's contents. If not, we simply return it's contents.
