json-minimizer-webpack-plugin

This plugin uses JSON.stringify() to minify your JSON.

Getting Started

To begin, you'll need to install json-minimizer-webpack-plugin:

``console
npm install json-minimizer-webpack-plugin --save-dev
`

or

`console
yarn add -D json-minimizer-webpack-plugin
`

or

`console
pnpm add -D json-minimizer-webpack-plugin
`

Then add the plugin to your webpack configuration. For example:

webpack.config.js

`js
const JsonMinimizerPlugin = require("json-minimizer-webpack-plugin");
const CopyPlugin = require("copy-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.json$/i,
type: "asset/resource",
},
],
},
plugins: [
new CopyPlugin({
patterns: [
{
context: path.resolve(__dirname, "dist"),
from: "./src/*.json",
},
],
}),
],
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
// For webpack@5 you can use the ... syntax to extend existing minimizers (i.e. terser-webpack-plugin), uncomment the next line
// ...
new JsonMinimizerPlugin(),
],
},
};
`

And run webpack via your preferred method.
