esbuild-plugin-compressor

Simple esbuild plugin for compressing files. Supports gzip and brotli.

Installation

npm install esbuild-plugin-compressor

Usage

Import the compressor plugin and add it to the plugins array in the esbuild build options.

import * as esbuild from 'esbuild';
import { compressor } from 'esbuild-plugin-compressor';

esbuild.build({
  entryPoints: ['src/index.ts'],
  bundle: true,
  outfile: 'dist/index.js',
  plugins: [
    compressor({
      fileTypes: ['js', 'css'],
      compressType: 'brotli',
    }),
  ],
});

Options

The compressor plugin accepts an options object with the following properties:

fileTypes (optional): An array of file extensions to include for compression. If not provided, no files will be compressed.
compressType (optional): The compression type to use. Valid values: 'brotli', 'gzip'. Default: 'gzip'.
deleteOrigin (optional): Indicates whether to delete the original file after compression. Default: false.
outdir (optional): The output directory for the compressed files. If not specified, the compressed files will be written to the same directory as the original files.

Examples

Gzip compression

const options = {
  fileTypes: ['.js', '.css'],
  compressType: 'gzip',
  deleteOrigin: false,
  outdir: 'dist',
};

// Add the compressor plugin to the esbuild configuration
const buildOptions = {
  entryPoints: ['src/index.js'],
  bundle: true,
  outfile: 'dist/index.js',
  plugins: [compressor(options)],
};

esbuild.build(buildOptions).catch(err => {
  console.error(err);
  process.exit(1);
});

Brotli compression

const options = {
  fileTypes: ['.js', '.css'],
  compressType: 'brotli',
  deleteOrigin: false,
  outdir: 'dist',
};

// Add the compressor plugin to the esbuild configuration
const buildOptions = {
  entryPoints: ['src/index.js'],
  bundle: true,
  outfile: 'dist/index.js',
  plugins: [compressor(options)],
};

esbuild.build(buildOptions).catch(err => {
  console.error(err);
  process.exit(1);
});
