parcel-reporter-clean-dist

Reporter to clean files inside dist folder for Parcel V2 (buildSuccess event)

Install

Using npm:
``shell
npm install -D parcel-reporter-clean-dist
`
Using yarn:
`shell
yarn add -D parcel-reporter-clean-dist
`
Using bower:
`shell
bower install -D parcel-reporter-clean-dist
`

Configuration

First of all, add a new reporter in the Parcel config.

.parcelrc
`json
{
"extends": ["@parcel/config-default"],
"reporters": ["...", "parcel-reporter-clean-dist"] // "..." is needed to include all other pipelines
}
`

That's it! all files except those generated on the current build will be removed from the dist folder.

If you need to apply specific rules for the cleanup process, then define a config in the package.json of the project.

package.json
`js
// example to remove only some specific file
{
...
"cleanDistFiles": ["dist/file1.txt"]
}

// example to remove only files with specific ext
{
...
"cleanDistFiles": ["dist/*/.js"]
}

// example to exclude from removal some specific file/folder
{
...
"cleanDistFiles": ["!dist/file1.txt", "!dist/embed"]
}
`

#### cleanDistFiles
Type: String[]

Default: ${dist folder of the current build}/*/`

Glob or relative path from where we clean files (root path is the current working directory of the process)
