Compress html #40

Closed getchenge closed 11 years ago

getchenge commented 11 years ago

I don't know if express3-handlebars could compress the rendered html just as the jade does.

have a look on handlebars-runtime

Express-Handlebars is simply the glue code between Handlebars and Express. It doesn't deal with generating HTML (Handlebars does that) or sending an HTTP response (Express does that). I think you shouldn't worry about minifying HTML and instead simply gzip the response.

To gzip responses simply use the compress middleware in Express:

app.use(express.compress());
