laravel-elixir-minify-html

library1.0.5jsnpmunverified

Laravel Elixir extension for minifying Blade-generated HTML and static HTML files using gulp-htmlmin (which uses html-minifier). Version 1.0.5 is the latest stable release; the package has seen no updates since 2020 and is effectively in maintenance mode. Key differentiator: integrates directly with Laravel Elixir's build pipeline, allowing minification of views without separate gulp tasks. Note that Laravel Elixir itself has been superseded by Laravel Mix.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ require('laravel-elixir-minify-html');

✗ import 'laravel-elixir-minify-html'; // Not an ES module

Package uses CommonJS require; no named exports.

mix.html

✓ Elixir(function(mix) { mix.html('src/*', 'output/'); })

✗ const mix = require('laravel-elixir').mix; mix.html(...); // wrong: mix is not exposed as a property

The html method is registered on the Elixir mix object inside the callback.

require('laravel-elixir')

✓ var Elixir = require('laravel-elixir');

✗ const Elixir = require('laravel-elixir-minify-html'); // Wrong package

You must require laravel-elixir first, then the minify plugin.

Minimum working gulpfile that requires laravel-elixir, registers the minify plugin, and minifies all Blade-compiled views in storage/framework/views/.

var Elixir = require('laravel-elixir'); require('laravel-elixir-minify-html'); Elixir(function(mix) { mix.html('storage/framework/views/*', 'storage/framework/views/', { collapseWhitespace: true, removeComments: true, minifyJS: true }); });

Debug

Known issues

gotchaThe plugin only works with Laravel Elixir, which is deprecated. Use Laravel Mix instead.

fix

Migrate to Laravel Mix and use mix.minify() or the html-minifier package directly.

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedgulp-htmlmin is deprecated in favor of gulp-htmlmin's successor or direct html-minifier usage.

fix

Consider using html-minifier directly or gulp-htmlmin v5+.

affects: *

gotchaIf you pass options that are not supported by gulp-htmlmin, they are silently ignored.

fix

Refer to gulp-htmlmin documentation for valid options.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe watcher watches the `src` path; changes to Blade templates will not trigger re-minification unless the compiled output changes.

fix

Set src to the compiled views directory (storage/framework/views), not the Blade source.

affects: *
