An static resource compression plugin for Pelican, the static site generator.
Project description
# Zopfli Gzip cache
This is a variant of [gzip_cache] but using [zopfli] for better compression.
Certain web servers (e.g., Nginx) can use a static cache of gzip-compressed files to prevent the server from compressing files during an HTTP call. Since compression occurs at another time, these compressed files can be compressed at a higher compression level for increased optimization.
Since zopfli is slow, this plugin uses joblib to compress files in parallel.
The pelican-zopfli plugin compresses all common text type files into a .gz file within the same directory as the original file.
## Installation
The easiest option is to install via pip from PyPI:
` pip install pelican-zopfli `
It is also possible to simply clone the git repository and put it in a directory listed in PLUGIN_PATHS in your pelicanconf.py:
` git clone https://github.com/VorpalBlade/pelican_zopfli.git `
In both cases you will then have to enable the plugin by putting pelican_zopfli into PLUGINS in your pelican configuration. It is a good idea to only do this in your publishconf.py since this plugin is quite slow.
## Settings
PELICAN_ZOPFLI_OVERWRITE If True, the original files will be replaced by the gzip-compressed files. This is useful for static hosting services (e.g S3). Defaults to False.
