FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Yet Another CSS Minifier
Why?
Why write another CSS Minifier? Read PHILOSOPHY.md.
Installation
Composer
In your project directory:
Manually
Download Minifier.php and require it in your PHP app:
Usage
Return Value
The minify method returns a minified string when it successfully minifies a stylesheet. If it returns false, it means that the CSS code contained an un-balanced brace, bracket, parenthesis, comment, or string; or an unescaped newline inside a string. To distinguish this from the empty string, use strict comparison:
Preserving Comments
The minify method also accepts an optional second argument which should be an array of options.
You can selectively preserve comments by writing a callback function for filtering each comment, and passing it in as the comments option. This callback should accept a full comment (beginning with /* and ending with */) and return a full comment. To preserve a comment as-is, you can just return the string that was passed in:
If it returns null or anything other than a valid CSS comment, the comment will be stripped from the output.
Content Filtering
The other option available is to pass in a custom filter to alter the CSS beyond what YaCSSMin does on its own.
YaCSSMin only removes whitespace and comments. It doesn't change any of the values in your CSS, like shortening color codes or rewriting URLs. (For reasons why, see PHILOSOPHY.md.) So to do things like that, you need the filter option:
Here are the arguments that function should accept:
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
$css |
A string containing the minified stylesheet, with every string represented by the placeholder "_", and preserved comments represented by /*_*/. |
&$strings |
An array of strings (including quotes) corresponding, in order, to the "_" placeholders. |
&$comments |
An array of comments corresponding, in order, to the /*_*/ placeholders. |
If you remove a string or a comment from $css, be sure to also unset or array_splice it out of &$strings or &$comments, to keep them in sync.
There might also be comments (/**/) that were only emptied rather than stripped, because of weird placement. These have no counterpart in the &$comments array.
