It removes whitespace, comments, and other unnecessary characters from JavaScript code while preserving functionality. The package includes an optional C reimplementation (rjsmin.c) for additional speed. Unlike the original jsmin.c, rjsmin does not perform error detection on malformed input; instead, it treats unterminated strings, regexes, and comments as regular code. It supports modern JavaScript features including template literals (ECMA-6) and optional preservation of comments starting with exclamation marks.\n\nThe package is designed for runtime use rather than as a preprocessing step, making it suitable for dynamic JavaScript generation or on-demand minification. It provides both a direct API and a \"streamy\" interface for handling complete strings. With no runtime dependencies and support for Python 2.7 and 3.6 through 3.14, rjsmin is a lightweight, portable choice for projects needing fast JavaScript compression.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need runtime JavaScript minification in Python and can tolerate the aging maintenance status. The package is stable (Production/Stable classifier), has no known vulnerabilities, and offers good performance through optional C acceleration. However, consider the 306-day release gap when evaluating long-term support; if you require active maintenance or are starting a new project, evaluate whether a more actively maintained alternative better fits your risk tolerance."},"id":"rjsmin","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/rjsmin","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/rjsmin.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/rjsmin/"},"maintenance":{"status":"aging"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2025-10-12","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"rjsmin","python_support":"unspecified","summary":"Javascript Minifier"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":2993182,"position":2796,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.2.5"}
