Flags for commands

[iHildy]

Are there any flags supported by minify, for example minify src/index.html > public/index.html --removeOptionalTags: false

I ask this because I need to set removeOptionalTags to false(because it does not include the ending and ) and minify one file and have the output in another. Your example code only allows for outputting it via the command line which is not helpful.

Code currently:

const minify = require('minify');
const options = {
    html: {
        removeOptionalTags: false
    },
};

minify('public/index.html', options)
    .then(console.log)
    .catch(console.error);

Hope you can help me out!
Also, why are </body> and </html> considered optional?

Also, why are and considered optional?

Here is answer to your question http://perfectionkills.com/experimenting-with-html-minifier/#remove_optional_tags

Your example code only allows for outputting it via the command line which is not helpful.

Example is for outputing via API, and as I understand you want command line flag, am I right?

Yes I would like flags. Can you tell me how I can minify using my options?

There is no such a feature, but that's a good idea for a pull request :).

Would be much better to use configuration file instead. What do you think?
