Inliner

Turns your web page to a single HTML file with everything inlined - perfect for appcache manifests on mobile devices that you want to reduce those http requests.

What it does

  • Get a list of all the assets required to drive the page: CSS, JavaScript, images and images used in CSS
  • Minify JavaScript (via uglify-js)
  • Strips white from CSS
  • Base64 encode images
  • Puts everything back together as a single HTML file with a simplfied doctype

Usage

The inliner.js script requires jsdom to be installed via npm install jsdom, otherwise you should be good to run:

var inliner = require('./inliner').inliner;

inliner('http://remysharp.com', function (html) {
  // compressed and inlined HTML page
  console.log(html);
});

I plan to include a web service at some point, but obviously this won't be able to access localhost domains.

Once you've inlined the crap out of the page, add the manifest="self.manifest" to the html tag and create an empty file called self.manifest (read more).

Limitations / Caveats

  • Whitespace compression might get a little heavy handed - all whitespace is collapsed from n spaces to one space.
  • Doesn't support @import rules in CSS
  • I've not tested it much (yet)! :)
  • It was written in about 2 hours or so, so the code is a little messy, sorry!
