[HTMLMinifier](https://danielruf.github.io/html-minifier-terser/) is a highly **configurable**, **well-tested**, JavaScript-based HTML minifier.
|
|
|
|
See [corresponding blog post](http://perfectionkills.com/experimenting-with-html-minifier/) for all the gory details of [how it works](http://perfectionkills.com/experimenting-with-html-minifier/#how_it_works), [description of each option](http://perfectionkills.com/experimenting-with-html-minifier/#options), [testing results](http://perfectionkills.com/experimenting-with-html-minifier/#field_testing) and [conclusions](http://perfectionkills.com/experimenting-with-html-minifier/#cost_and_benefits).
|
|
|
|
[Test suite is available online](https://danielruf.github.io/html-minifier-terser/tests/).

|
### Sorting attributes / style classes
|
|
|
|
Minifier options like `sortAttributes` and `sortClassName` won't impact the plain-text size of the output. However, they form long repetitive chains of characters that should improve compression ratio of gzip used in HTTP compression.
|
|
|
|
## Special cases
|
|
|
|
### Ignoring chunks of markup
|
|
|
|
If you have chunks of markup you would like preserved, you can wrap them `<!-- htmlmin:ignore -->`.
|
|
|
|
### Preserving SVG tags
|
|
|
|
SVG tags are automatically recognized, and when they are minified, both case-sensitivity and closing-slashes are preserved, regardless of the minification settings used for the rest of the file.
|
|
|
|
### Working with invalid markup
|
|
|
|
HTMLMinifier **can't work with invalid or partial chunks of markup**. This is because it parses markup into a tree structure, then modifies it (removing anything that was specified for removal, ignoring anything that was specified to be ignored, etc.), then it creates a markup out of that tree and returns it.
|
|
|
|
Input markup (e.g. `<p id="">foo`)
|
|
|
|
↓
|
|
|
|
Internal representation of markup in a form of tree (e.g. `{ tag: "p", attr: "id", children: ["foo"] }`)
|
|
|
|
↓
|
|
|
|
Transformation of internal representation (e.g. removal of `id` attribute)
|
|
|
|
↓
|
|
|
|
Output of resulting markup (e.g. `<p>foo</p>`)
|
|
|
|
HTMLMinifier can't know that original markup was only half of the tree; it does its best to try to parse it as a full tree and it loses information about tree being malformed or partial in the beginning. As a result, it can't create a partial/malformed tree at the time of the output.

## Usage
|
|
|
|
Note that almost all options are disabled by default. For command line usage please see `html-minifier-terser --help` for a list of available options. Experiment and find what works best for you and your project.
|
|
|
|
* **Sample command line:** ``html-minifier-terser --collapse-whitespace --remove-comments --remove-optional-tags --remove-redundant-attributes --remove-script-type-attributes --remove-tag-whitespace --use-short-doctype --minify-css true --minify-js true``
|
|
|
|
### Node.js
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var minify = require('html-minifier-terser').minify;
|
|
var result = minify('<p title="blah" id="moo">foo</p>', {
|
|
removeAttributeQuotes: true
|
|
});
|
|
result; // '<p title=blah id=moo>foo</p>'
|
|
```
