npm install @liber-ufpe/esbuild-plugin-compress --save-dev

Usage

!IMPORTANT metafile: true option is required to generate the compressed files. See more about metafile in esbuild docs.

import esbuild from "esbuild";
import compressPlugin from "@liber-ufpe/esbuild-plugin-compress";

const compress = compressPlugin();

esbuild.build({
  entryPoints: ["src/index.js"],
  bundle: true,
  metafile: true,
  outfile: "dist/index.js",
  plugins: [compress],
}).catch(() => process.exit(1));

Or when customizing the compression options:

import esbuild from "esbuild";
import compressPlugin from "@liber-ufpe/esbuild-plugin-compress";

const compress = compressPlugin({
  gzip: true,
  brotli: false,
  gzipOptions: { level: constants.Z_BEST_SPEED },
  deflateOptions: { level: constants.Z_DEFAULT_COMPRESSION },
  excludes: ["**/*.{webp,avif,jpg,png}"]
});

esbuild.build({
  entryPoints: ["src/index.js"],
  bundle: true,
  metafile: true,
  outfile: "dist/index.js",
  plugins: [compress],
}).catch(() => process.exit(1));
