MinifyAll an extension for VS Code

Simple VS Code minifier and compressor for most common file types (See full list below). You will love its simplicity!

You can minify the file and replace all the content with the new minified text, or you can preserve the original document and get the minified text in another document! Also, you can simply minify your selected text, you can preserve your licence comments with the tags @preserve and @endpreserve.

MinifyAll is also able to compress files and folders simply by right-clicking them on the menu.

Go to the extension settings and make it as you want, enable or disable: minify on save, languages, hexadecimal shortener, messages, and much more.

For more information check our: GitHub repository, VisualStudio Marketplace or OpenVSX registry.

Also check the brand new MinifyAll online webpage 😎 or the MinifyAllCli/package.

Do you want to help us improve the extension or did you found a bug? Let us know.

Check our CHANGELOG.

Currently looking for active contributors to maintain and keep the project alive.

We support up to 14 languages/file extensions!

Installation 🔩⚙

Open the Command Palette of VS Code with Ctrl+P or ⌘P
And type:➡️ ext install josee9988.minifyall

Commands 📐🛡

Minify this document ⚡ Or CTRL+ALT+M
Minify this document and preserve the original ⛏ Or CTRL+ALT+N
Minify the selected text 🎯 Or CTRL+ALT+. CTRL+ALT+M

We recommend using them with: "left click" on the document and then select the option you want, either the file in the menu or the opened file. ;)

How does it look with real code? 📸 😁

The two commands available. First directly minifies the actual document and replaces the original code with the modified one, the second keeps the original document and creates a file with the modified text:

Preserve your licence comments with the tags @preserve (at the very top) and @endpreserve

The first and default command that replaces the actual code with the minified one:

The second command that saves the minified text to other file and preserves the original text:

Minify only your selected text!

Also, minify when right-clicking on the code!

Minify when right-clicking on a file of the menu without opening it!

Compress when right-clicking on a file or folder of the menu.

Click to see an example of how the extension minifies JavaScript

From:

"use strict";
const {
    commands,
    window
} = require('vscode');
const FileSaver = require('fs')
const StringWithComments = "// not a comment /*" //this is my comment
if ((window.activeTextEditor.document.languageId == "css" && disableCss == false) || //myComment
    (window.activeTextEditor.document.languageId == "scss" && disableScss == false)) {
    const {
        document
    } = window.activeTextEditor;
    switch (window.activeTextEditor.document.languageId) {
        case "css":
            /*
            multi-line comments
            */
            console.log("Love this minifier !!!")
            break;
        default:
            break;
    }
}

To:

"use strict";const{commands,window}=require('vscode');const FileSaver=require('fs')
const StringWithComments="// not a comment /*"
if((window.activeTextEditor.document.languageId=="css"&&disableCss==false)||(window.activeTextEditor.document.languageId=="scss"&&disableScss==false)){const{document}=window.activeTextEditor;switch(window.activeTextEditor.document.languageId){case"css":console.log("Love this minifier !!!")
break;default:break;}}let myString="hello//";myString.replace(/\/\//g,'');

Only changes line if, at the end of a declaration or an import, that line does not end in ';' (So adding more ';' at the end of every line will help you minimize more your code).
All irrelevant spaces removed.
Spaces left are only within quotes (Strings) and variable declarations.
If 'OR' and 'AND' are without spaces, the same as if condition or switch cases.
All single line and multiline comments removed.
Single line comments inside a String will not be removed. (hello//) (// not a comment).
Multi-line comments inside a String will not be removed. (// not a comment /*).
Regex expression with single-line comments will not be removed.
No tabs.

⚠️ If you are doing a regex without escaping the '//' it might be deleted as it must be escaped (//).
