HtmlMin: Laravel package for HTML minification

Very simple (and very fast) html compression.

Features

• Removing extra whitespaces
• Removing html comments (works correctly with livewire/livewire comments)
• Removing trailing slashes from void elements (HTML5)
• Skip textarea, pre and script elements
• Very fast. See benchmark

Requirements

• PHP 7.4 or higher (7.4, 8.0, 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 8.4)
• Laravel 8.x - 12.x

Installation

You can install the package via composer:

composer require abordage/laravel-html-min

You can publish the config file with:

php artisan vendor:publish --tag="html-min-config"

Usage

To enable compression just register middleware:

// app/Http/Kernel.php

protected $middleware = [
    'web' => [
        // other middleware
        
        \Abordage\LaravelHtmlMin\Middleware\HtmlMinify::class,
    ],
    
    // ...
];

It's all. Optionally you can change the settings in config/html-min.php
