Hyde Zipper

This module precompresses all plaintext files so that properly configured web servers can serve gzip compressed content without compressing it on every request.

Installation

pip install hyde-zipper

Install Post Processor:

SITE_POST_PROCESSORS = {
    '/': {
        'zipper.site_post_processors.GzipCompress' : {
            'filetypes': ['*html', '*.css', '*.js', '*.xml', '*.txt'],
            'level': 9,
        },
    }
}
