This Pelican plugin can compress HTML & CSS files as well as inline CSS and JavaScript in HTML files.

Requirements

------------

Because this plugin depends on the [`minify-html`](https://pypi.org/project/minify-html) Python package, which in turn utilizes the Rust-based [`minify-html`](https://github.com/wilsonzlin/minify-html) project, you must have Cargo (the Rust package manager) installed and available on your `PATH`. Rust and Cargo can be installed on Mac systems via Homebrew:

    brew install rust

Alternatively, Rust and Cargo can be installed via your particular system’s package manager or via: 

Installation

------------

This plugin can be installed via:

    python -m pip install pelican-minify

As long as you have not explicitly added a `PLUGINS` setting to your Pelican settings file, then the newly-installed plugin should be automatically detected and enabled. Otherwise, you must add `minify` to your existing `PLUGINS` list. For more information, please see the [How to Use Plugins](https://docs.getpelican.com/en/latest/plugins.html#how-to-use-plugins) documentation.

Usage

-----

By default, all HTML and CSS files will be compressed, including inline JavaScript and CSS rules in `` and `<style>` tags.

To configure the behavior of the plugin, add the following variables in your Pelican settings file (values shown here are the default values):

```python

CSS_MIN = True

JS_MIN = True

HTML_MIN = True

INLINE_CSS_MIN = True

INLINE_JS_MIN = True

```

Please note that `INLINE_CSS_MIN` and `INLINE_JS_MIN` require that `HTML_MIN` be enabled.
