Don’t strip server-side includes when minifying HTML

I have HTML minification enabled and it works quite well (Minimee v.2.1.13).
But when I tried to use an SSI (server side include) it was stripped as well because its syntax is
<!--#include virtual="/another-file.shtml" -->
and I assume Minimee interprets that as a comment.
Are you able to not strip out SSIs?
Thank you!

Hi,
The SSI is in fact an HTML comment, so the HTML minification library is going to strip them and there’s no option I have available to exclude it. Minimee uses this library for all minification: https://github.com/mrclay/minify
I am curious to know how SSIs actually work in the context of an EE template. I would assume that SSIs don’t work since it’s the EE template parser which renders the page, and not your server?
Cheers,
John

Hi John,
you are correct. I shot too fast. My apologies. Even if I turn all minification off and I can see the SSI include code, nothing is included.
I ended up using PHP’s file_get_contents function.

FYi You don’t need to use php just to include another template, ExpressionEngine has tags that can do that for you.
Cheers
John
