public static class CssMinifier { private const string URL_CSS_MINIFIER = "https://www.toptal.com/developers/cssminifier/raw"; private const string POST_PAREMETER_NAME = "input"; public static async Task<String> MinifyCss(string inputCss) { List<KeyValuePair<String, String>> contentData = new List<KeyValuePair<String, String>> { new KeyValuePair<String, String>(POST_PAREMETER_NAME, inputCss) }; using (HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient()) { using (FormUrlEncodedContent content = new FormUrlEncodedContent(contentData)) { using (HttpResponseMessage response = await httpClient.PostAsync(URL_CSS_MINIFIER, content)) { response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode(); return await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); } } } } }
Usage:
using (Task<String> task = CssMinifier.MinifyCss("/* test commentary */ input { font-size: 9pt ; } ")) { task.Wait(); Console.WriteLine(task.Result); // input{font-size:9pt} }
