CompressPlugin

Prepare compressed versions of assets to serve them with Content-Encoding. Based on compression-webpack-plugin

Install

``bash npm i -D compress-webpack-plugin`

`Usage`

`javascript var CompressPlugin = require("compress-webpack-plugin"); module.exports = { plugins: [ new CompressPlugin({ asset: "[path].gz[query]", algorithm: "gzip", test: /\.(js|html)$/, threshold: 10240, minRatio: 0.8 }) ] }`

Arguments:

* asset: The target asset name. [file] is replaced with the original asset. [path] is replaced with the path of the original asset and [query] with the query. Defaults to "[path].gz[query]". *filename: A function(asset) which receives the asset name (after processing asset option) and returns the new asset name. Defaults to false. *algorithm: Can be a function(buf, callback) or a string. For a string the algorithm is taken from zlib (or zopfli for zopfli). Defaults to "gzip". *test: All assets matching this RegExp are processed. Defaults to every asset. *threshold: Only assets bigger than this size are processed. In bytes. Defaults to 0. *minRatio: Only assets that compress better that this ratio are processed. Defaults to 0.8. *deleteOriginalAssets: Whether to delete the original assets or not. Defaults to false`.

Option Arguments for Zopfli (see node-zopfli doc for details):
* verbose: Default: false,
* verbose_more: Default: false,
* numiterations: Default: 15,
* blocksplitting: Default: true,
* blocksplittinglast: Default: false,
* blocksplittingmax: Default: 15
