Examples

Minify index.html to index-min.html:

$ minify -o index-min.html index.html

Minify index.html to standard output (leave -o blank):

$ minify index.html

Normally the mimetype is inferred from the extension, to set the mimetype explicitly:

$ minify --type=html -o index-min.tpl index.tpl

You need to set the type or the mimetype option when using standard input:

$ minify --mime=text/javascript < script.js > script-min.js

$ cat script.js | minify --type=js > script-min.js
Directories

You can also give directories as input, and these directories can be minified recursively.

Minify files in the current working directory to out/ (no subdirectories):

$ minify -o out/ .

Minify files recursively in src/:

$ minify -r -o out/ src

Minify only javascript files in src/:

$ minify -r -o out/ --match=\.js src
Concatenate

When multiple inputs are given and either standard output or a single output file, it will concatenate the files together.

Concatenate one.css and two.css into style.css:

$ minify -o style.css one.css two.css

Concatenate all files in styles/ into style.css:

$ minify -o style.css styles

You can also use cat as standard input to concatenate files and use gzip for example:

$ cat one.css two.css three.css | minify --type=css | gzip -9 -c > style.css.gz
Watching

To watch file changes and automatically re-minify you can use the -w or --watch option.

Minify style.css to itself and watch changes:

$ minify -w -o style.css style.css

Minify and concatenate one.css and two.css to style.css and watch changes:

$ minify -w -o style.css one.css two.css

Minify files in src/ and subdirectories to out/ and watch changes:

$ minify -w -r -o out/ src
