# VERSION

Version 2.01

# DESCRIPTION

A fast pure Perl CSS minifier.

# SYNOPSIS

    use CSS::Packer;

    my $packer = CSS::Packer->init();

    $packer->minify( $scalarref, $opts );

To return a scalar without changing the input simply use (e.g. example 2):

    my $ret = $packer->minify( $scalarref, $opts );

For backward compatibility it is still possible to call 'minify' as a function:

    CSS::Packer::minify( $scalarref, $opts );

First argument must be a scalarref of CSS-Code.
Second argument must be a hashref of options. Possible options are:

- compress

    Defines compression level. Possible values are 'minify' and 'pretty'.
    Default value is 'pretty'.

    'pretty' converts

        a {
        color:          black
        ;}   div

        { width:100px;
        }

    to

        a{
        color:black;
        }
        div{
        width:100px;
        }

    'minify' converts the same rules to

        a{color:black;}div{width:100px;}

- copyright

    You can add a copyright notice at the top of the script.

- remove\_copyright

    If there is a copyright notice in a comment it will only be removed if this
    option is set to a true value. Otherwise the first comment that contains the
    word "copyright" will be added at the top of the packed script. A copyright
    comment will be overwritten by a copyright notice defined with the copyright
    option.

- no\_compress\_comment

    If not set to a true value it is allowed to set a CSS comment that
    prevents the input being packed or defines a compression level.

        /* CSS::Packer _no_compress_ */
        /* CSS::Packer pretty */
