About
nanoc-gzip.rb is a nanoc filter that integrates gzip into nanoc. The filter can be combined with the nginx module gzip_static or its equivalent in other web servers.
Examples
Defaults
The following example demonstrates the compression of “app.js”. The uncompressed version (app.js) and the compressed version (app.js.gz) are both written to disk:
# Rules
require "nanoc-gzip"
compile "/js/app.js" do
write("/js/app.js")
filter(:gzip)
write("/js/app.js.gz")
end
Options
The filter can be configured with “level”, and
“strategy” options. Both are integer values. The
default compression level is Zlib::BEST_COMPRESSION.
And the default strategy is Zlib::DEFAULT_STRATEGY. The
zlib manual
documents what integers are accepted and what
they represent. For example:
# Rules
require "nanoc-gzip"
compile "/js/app.js" do
write("/js/app.js")
filter(:gzip, {level: Zlib::BEST_SPEED, strategy: Zlib::HUFFMAN_ONLY})
write("/js/app.js.gz")
end
