Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

classnames-minifier

npm version

Library for configuring style (css/scss/sass) modules to generate compressed classes (.header -> .a, .nav -> .b, ..., .footer -> .aad, etc.) with support for changes and rebuilding without clearing the built application.

The logic of minifying is taken out of the next-classnames-minifier library.

Reasons

Compressing classes can reduce the size of the generated html and css by up to 20%, which will have a positive effect on page rendering and metrics (primarily FCP)

Installation

Using npm:

npm i classnames-minifier

Using yarn:

yarn add classnames-minifier

Configuration

Options

  • prefix - custom prefix that will be added to each updated class;
  • reservedNames - array of reserved names that should not be used by this package (must include prefix);
  • cacheDir - directory where this library will write the cache. Passing this parameter will enable caching. Use this option only if your framework really needs it;
  • distDir - directory where the project is being assembled. Used only when caching is enabled to synchronize caches between this library and the project;
  • disableDistDeletion - option that allows you to disable the automatic deletion of the dist folder if necessary (f.e. differences in package setup in cache and now or first launch);

Configuration example:

// webpack.config.js
const classnamesMinifier = new ClassnamesMinifier({
    prefix: '_',
    reservedNames: ['_en', '_de'],
});
// ...
loaders.push(
    {
        loader: require.resolve('css-loader'),
        options: {
            importLoaders: 3,
            modules: {
                mode: 'local',
                getLocalIdent: classnamesMinifier.getLocalIdent,
            },
        },
    },
);

If the framework you are using utilizes component caching between builds, you can configure caching in classnames-minifier as well. As a result, module classes between builds will use the same compressed classes.

// webpack.config.js
const classnamesMinifier = new ClassnamesMinifier({
    distDir: path.join(process.cwd(), 'build'),
    cacheDir: path.join(process.cwd(), 'build/cache'),
});
// ...
loaders.push(
    classnamesMinifier.postLoader,
    {
        loader: require.resolve('css-loader'),
        options: {
            importLoaders: 3,
            modules: {
                mode: 'local',
                getLocalIdent: classnamesMinifier.getLocalIdent,
            },
        },
    },
    classnamesMinifier.preLoader,
);
