suppress chunks webpack plugin


This plugin is intended to suppress webpack chunks.

Install

npm i -D suppress-chunks-webpack-plugin

Usage

Here's how to suppress the chunks generated by the entry points one and foo

``js
var SuppressChunksPlugin = require('suppress-chunks-webpack-plugin');

module.exports = {
...

entry: {
one: './file.js',
foo: './foo.js',
bar: './bar.js',
main: './index.js',
},

output: {
path: path.join(__dirname, '/dist')),
filename: '[name].js',
},

plugins: [
...

new SuppressChunksPlugin(['one', 'foo']);
]
}

`

If you have a chunk that produces multiple output files e.g. if you're using something like extract-text-webpack-plugin to generate a .css file, you can filter out specific files in the chunk to suppress. Simply add an object instead of a string into the array: { name: string, match: regexp }


`js
// one.js
require('./one.css');
`

This would suppress one.js, but not one.css

`js
var SuppressChunksPlugin = require('suppress-chunks-webpack-plugin');

module.exports = {
...

entry: {
one: './one.js',
foo: './foo.js',
bar: './bar.js',
main: './index.js',
},

output: {
path: path.join(__dirname, '/dist')),
filename: '[name].js',
},

module: {
loaders: [{
...,

loader: ExtractTextPlugin.extract(
'style-loader',
'css-loader',
}],
},

plugins: [
...
new ExtractTextPlugin('[name].css'),

new SuppressChunksPlugin([
{ name: 'one', match: /\.js$/ },
'foo',
'bar',
]);
]
`

If you want to filter out a pattern for all of your chunks, you can pass in an options object as the second parameter:
`js
new SuppressChunksPlugin([
'one',
'two',
'foo',
'bar',
{ name: 'file', match: /\.css$/ },
// entries passed in with a match field have priority over the options object.
], { filter: /\.js$/ });
