It transforms assert calls to void expressions. Use a minifier like terser to completely remove them.
Input:
``js`
var assert = require('assert')
assert(true)
assert.equal(typeof x, 'string')
assert(sideEffectCall())
assert.throws(function () {})
Output:
`js`
;
void (true)
void (typeof x, 'string')
void (sideEffectCall())
void (function () {})
After minification:
`js`
sideEffectCall();

``
npm install mini-unassert
It works as a stream and as a browserify transform.
`js`
var unassert = require('mini-unassert')
fs.createReadStream('file.js')
.pipe(unassert({ modules: ['assert', 'power-assert', 'nanoassert'] }))
.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('file.unassert.js'))
`js`
browserify -g mini-unassert -g uglifyify
Create a stream that replaces assert calls with void expressions.
* opts.modules is an array of assertion module names, defaulting to ['assert'].
Add unassert as a browserify transform. b is an instance of browserify.
* Set opts.global to run it on all files, including dependencies in node_modules. (recommended)opts.modules
* is an array of assertion module names, defaulting to ['assert']`.
