Hexo-yam

This project is based on hexo-neat

Yet Another Minifier for Hexo. Minify and compress html, js and css. Support gzip and brotli compressions.

The original package has not been updated for a while. I update the dependencies and add compression support.

All the options are the same, so you can use this as a drop-in replacement.

Note: See HTTP Compression section below for more info on using brotli.

HTTP Compression

While most modern web browsers support Brotli, you also need to consider whether the web/app server, hosting platform, reverse proxy or CDN (whichever relevant to you) support it.

As of 2018, GitHub/GitLab Pages and Netlify do not support brotli. You can generate .br files, but they won't be serving those files.

If you have access to the web server config, you should disable on-the-fly compression for static files (that are already compressed by this plugin), e.g.

• nginx: Make sure both filter and static modules are enabled. This way pre-compressed .br files will be served while dynamic content can be compressed on-the-fly. Protip: brotli_types text/plain text/css application/javascript application/json image/svg+xml application/xml+rss; to prevent compressing media files (which are already compressed anyway).
• Apache: See 'Serving pre-compressed content' section of mod_brotli.
• Caddy: 0.9.4+ by default support pre-compressed .gz .br files and on-the-fly gzip compress dynamic files.
• express/connect: Use pre-compressed-assets. You still can continue to use compression/shrink-ray-current for dynamic files.
