react-native-factor-bundle v0.0.1

react-native-factor-bundle

Factor react-native packager bundles into common shared bundles

Example

Sources

Check the directories.

Here is an overview:

⌘ tree -I 'node_modules' .
.
├── build.js
├── lib
│   └── sayHi.js
├── package.json
└── page
    ├── bar
    │   └── index.ios.js
    └── foo
        └── index.ios.js

You should ignore the build.js right now.

Suppose we have two bundles to build: foo.ios.jsbundle, bar.ios.jsbundle.

Build with the original RN packager

We can use the packager shipped with RN, and do:

node node_modules/react-native/local-cli/cli.js bundle --entry-file page/foo/index.ios.js --bundle-output rn-packager-build/foo.ios.jsbundle
node node_modules/react-native/local-cli/cli.js bundle --entry-file page/bar/index.ios.js --bundle-output rn-packager-build/bar.ios.jsbundle

Two bundles will be created under rn-packager-build.

⌘ tree -I 'node_modules' .
.
├── build.js
├── lib
│   └── sayHi.js
├── package.json
├── page
│   ├── bar
│   │   └── index.ios.js
│   └── foo
│       └── index.ios.js
└── rn-packager-build
    ├── bar.ios.jsbundle
    └── foo.ios.jsbundle

However, there are so many codes shared by the two bundles that we decide to create another common bundle for sharing among them.

NOTE: To run the example successfully, you should copy the react-native directory to MyApp/node_modules rather than making a symlink to it.

NOTE: In react-native 0.18.1, probably you also have to run the following command. See #5191

rm node_modules/react-native/node_modules/react-transform-hmr/node_modules/react-proxy/node_modules/react-deep-force-update/.babelrc

Build common shared bundles

So we instead run:

node build.js

build.js

var bundle = require('../../')

Promise.resolve()
.then(function () {
  var del = require('del')
  return del('build')
})
.then(function () {
  var fs = require('fs')
  fs.mkdirSync('build')
})
.then(function () {
  var path = require('path')
  return bundle(
    {
      dev: true,
      transformer: require.resolve('react-native/packager/transformer'),
      verbose: false,
      platform: 'ios',
    },
    {
      projectRoots: [__dirname],
      blacklistRE: require('react-native/packager/blacklist')('ios'),
    },
    {
      entries: ['page/foo/index.ios.js', 'page/bar/index.ios.js'],
      output: function (entry) {
        var name = 'common'
        if (entry) {
          name = path.basename(path.dirname(entry))
        }
        return path.join('build', name + '.ios.jsbundle')
      },
    }
  )
})
.catch(function (err) {
  console.log(err.stack)
})

Now we get three bundles in build.

⌘ tree -I 'node_modules' .
.
├── build
│   ├── bar.ios.jsbundle
│   ├── common.ios.jsbundle
│   └── foo.ios.jsbundle
├── build.js
├── lib
│   └── sayHi.js
├── package.json
├── page
│   ├── bar
│   │   └── index.ios.js
│   └── foo
│       └── index.ios.js
└── rn-packager-build
    ├── bar.ios.jsbundle
    └── foo.ios.jsbundle

All codes from RN and lib are packed into common.ios.jsbundle, while others are left into page-specific bundles.

We can check the diff:

⌘ diff build/common.ios.jsbundle rn-packager-build/foo.ios.jsbundle
