Code examples

Both endpoints take the same request shape: a X-Api-Key header and a JSON body with one code field. Below is the exact same call in cURL, PHP, Node.js and a browser, plus what the response looks like. Don't have a key yet? Create an account.

# minify
curl -X POST https://obix.dev/v1/minify \
  -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"code":"function hi ( n ) { return \"hey \"+n }"}'

# mangle
curl -X POST https://obix.dev/v1/mangle \
  -H "X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"code":"function hi(n){return \"hey \"+n}"}'

<?php
// swap /minify for /mangle - same shape, no config field
$ch = curl_init('https://obix.dev/v1/mangle');
curl_setopt_array($ch,[
    CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER=>true,
    CURLOPT_POST=>true,
    CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER=>['X-Api-Key: YOUR_KEY','Content-Type: application/json'],
    CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS=>json_encode(['code'=>$js]),
]);
$r = json_decode(curl_exec($ch),true);
echo $r['ok'] ? $r['code'] : "error: $r[err]";

// minify a bundle before shipping
let r = await fetch('https://obix.dev/v1/minify',{
    method:'POST',
    headers:{'X-Api-Key':'YOUR_KEY','Content-Type':'application/json'},
    body:JSON.stringify({code:src})
});
let d = await r.json();
if(d.ok) fs.writeFileSync('app.min.js',d.code);
else console.error(d.err);

let r = await fetch('https://obix.dev/v1/mangle',{
    method:'POST',
    headers:{'X-Api-Key':'YOUR_KEY','Content-Type':'application/json'},
    body:JSON.stringify({code:editor.getValue()})
});
let d = await r.json();
output.textContent = d.ok ? d.code : d.err;

{
  "ok": 1,
  "code": "function hi(n){return\"hey \"+n}",
  "bytesIn": 214,
  "bytesOut": 47,
  "ms": 6
}

That's the whole surface - no SDK, no build step. Full details on every field, header and error code are in the API reference.
