NAME
CSS::Minifier::XS - XS based CSS minifier SYNOPSIS
use CSS::Minifier::XS qw(minify); $minified = minify($css); DESCRIPTION
"CSS::Minifier::XS" is a CSS "minifier"; its designed to remove un-necessary whitespace and comments from CSS files, while also not breaking the CSS. "CSS::Minifier::XS" is similar in function to "CSS::Minifier", but is substantially faster as its written in XS and not just pure Perl. METHODS
minify($css) Minifies the given $css, returning the minified CSS back to the caller. HOW IT WORKS
"CSS::Minifier::XS" minifies the CSS by removing un-necessary whitespace from CSS documents. Comment blocks are also removed, except when (a) they contain the word "copyright" in them, or (b) they're needed to implement the "Mac/IE Comment Hack". Internally, the minification is done by taking multiple passes through the CSS document: Pass 1: Tokenize First, we go through and parse the CSS document into a series of tokens internally. The tokenizing process does not check to make sure that you've got syntactically valid CSS, it just breaks up the text into a stream of tokens suitable for processing by the subsequent stages. Pass 2: Collapse We then march through the token list and collapse certain tokens down to their smallest possible representation. If they're still included in the final results we only want to include them at their shortest. Whitespace Runs of multiple whitespace characters are reduced down to a single whitespace character. If the whitespace contains any "end of line" (EOL) characters, then the end result is the first EOL character encountered. Otherwise, the result is the first whitespace character in the run. Comments Comments implementing the "Mac/IE Comment Hack" are collapsed down to the smallest possible comment that would still implement the hack ("/**/" to start the hack, and "/**/" to end it). Pass 3: Pruning We then go back through the token list and prune and remove un-necessary tokens. Whitespace Wherever possible, whitespace is removed; before+after comment blocks, and before+after various symbols/sigils. Comments Comments that either (a) are needed to implement the "Mac/IE Comment Hack", or that (b) contain the word "copyright" in them are preserved. All other comments are removed. Symbols/Sigils Semi-colons that are immediately followed by a closing brace (e.g. ";}") are removed; semi-colons are needed to separate multiple declarations, but aren't required at the end of a group. Everything else We keep everything else; identifiers, quoted literal strings, symbols/sigils, etc. Pass 4: Re-assembly Lastly, we go back through the token list and re-assemble it all back into a single CSS string, which is then returned back to the caller.

NAME
CSS::DOM::Value::List - CSSValueList class for CSS::DOM VERSION
Version 0.14 SYNOPSIS
# ... DESCRIPTION
This module implements objects that represent CSS list property values. It implements the DOM CSSValueList interface. You can access the individual elements of the list using the "item" and "length" methods, or by using it as an array ref. METHODS
If you need the constructor, it's below the object methods. Normally you would get an object via CSS::DOM::Style's "getPropertyCSSValue" method. CSSValue Interface cssText Returns a string representation of the attribute. Pass an argument to set it. cssValueType Returns "CSS::DOM::Value::CSS_PRIMITIVE_VALUE". CSSValueList Interface item Returns the 'primitive' value at the given index. length Returns the number of values in the list. Constructor You probably don't need to call this, but here it is anyway: $val = new CSS::DOM::Value::List:: %args; The hash-style arguments are as follows. Only "values" is required. values This must be an array ref containing the individual values to be stored in the list. The individual elements can be value objects or array refs of arguments to pass to "new CSS::DOM::Value::Primitive". E.g., [ [type => CSS_PX, value => 20], [type => CSS_PERCENTAGE, value => 50], [type => CSS_PERCENTAGE, value => 50], [type => CSS_PX, value => 50], ] css CSS code used for serialisation. This will make reading "cssText" faster at least until the value is modified. separator The value separator used in serialisation. This is usually ' ' or ', '. An empty string or "undef" is treated as a space. owner The style object that owns this value; if this is omitted, then the value is read-only. The value object holds a weak reference to the owner. property The name of the CSS property to which this value belongs. "cssText" uses this to determine how to parse text passed to it. This does not apply to the sub-values of colours, counters and rects, but it does apply to individual elements of a list value. SEE ALSO
