@wayou/speed-measure-webpack-plugin v1.4.0

The first step to optimising your webpack build speed, is to know where to focus your attention.

This plugin measures your webpack build speed, giving an output like this:

Install

npm install --save-dev speed-measure-webpack-plugin

or

yarn add -D speed-measure-webpack-plugin

Requirements

SMP requires at least Node v6. But otherwise, accepts all webpack versions (1, 2, 3, and 4).

Usage

Change your webpack config from

const webpackConfig = {
  plugins: [
    new MyPlugin(),
    new MyOtherPlugin()
  ]
}

to

const SpeedMeasurePlugin = require("speed-measure-webpack-plugin");

const smp = new SpeedMeasurePlugin();

const webpackConfig = smp.wrap({
  plugins: [
    new MyPlugin(),
    new MyOtherPlugin()
  ]
});

and you're done! SMP will now be printing timing output to the console by default.

Check out the examples folder for some more examples.

Options

Pass these into the constructor, as an object:

const smp = new SpeedMeasurePlugin(options);

options.disable

Type: Boolean Default: false

If truthy, this plugin does nothing at all.

{ disable: !process.env.MEASURE } allows opt-in measurements with MEASURE=true npm run build.

options.outputFormat

Type: String|Function Default: "human"

Determines in what format this plugin prints its measurements

• "json" - produces a JSON blob
• "human" - produces a human readable output
• "humanVerbose" - produces a more verbose version of the human readable output
• If a function, it will call the function with the JSON blob, and output the response

options.outputTarget

Type: String|Function Default: console.log

• If a string, it specifies the path to a file to output to.
• If a function, it will call the function with the output as the first parameter

options.pluginNames

Type: Object Default: {}

By default, SMP derives plugin names through plugin.constructor.name. For some plugins this doesn't work (or you may want to override this default). This option takes an object of pluginName: PluginConstructor, e.g.

const uglify = new UglifyJSPlugin();
const smp = new SpeedMeasurePlugin({
  pluginNames: {
    customUglifyName: uglify
  }
});

const webpackConfig = smp.wrap({
  plugins: [
    uglify
  ]
});

options.granularLoaderData (experimental)

Type: Boolean Default: false

By default, SMP measures loaders in groups. If truthy, this plugin will give per-loader timing information.

This flag is experimental. Some loaders will have inaccurate results:

• loaders using separate processes (e.g. thread-loader)
• loaders emitting file output (e.g. file-loader)

We will find solutions to these issues before removing the (experimental) flag on this option.
