-
- ### 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.
-
- ## Installation Instructions
-
- From NPM for use as a command line app:
-
- ```shell
- npm install html-minifier -g
- ```
-
- From NPM for programmatic use:
-
- ```shell
- npm install html-minifier
- ```
-
- From Git:
-
- ```shell
- git clone git://github.com/kangax/html-minifier.git
- cd html-minifier
- npm link .
- ```
-
- ## Usage
-
- Note that almost all options are disabled by default. For command line usage please see `html-minifier --help` for a list of available options. Experiment and find what works best for you and your project.
-
- * **Sample command line:** ``html-minifier --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').minify;
- var result = minify('<p title="blah" id="moo">foo</p>', {
- removeAttributeQuotes: true
- });
- result; // '<p title=blah id=moo>foo</p>'
- ```
-
- ## Running benchmarks
-
- Benchmarks for minified HTML:
-
- ```shell
- node benchmark.js
- ```
