Rollup-plugin-esbuild-minify NPM

rollup-plugin-esbuild-minify

Rollup plugin to minify or clean up generated bundles using esbuild.

Simpler than rollup-plugin-esbuild and rollup-plugin-esbuild-transform, focusing only on minification of the bundled JavaScript output. Faster than @rollup/plugin-terser. See also benchmark results of various minifiers.

Synopsis

import { minify } from 'rollup-plugin-esbuild-minify'

export default {
  plugins: [minify()]
  // the rest of the configuration
}

Installation

Make sure that you use Node.js 14 or newer and Rollup 2 or newer. Use your favourite package manager - NPM, PNPM or Yarn:

npm i -D rollup-plugin-esbuild-minify
pnpm i -D rollup-plugin-esbuild-minify
yarn add -D rollup-plugin-esbuild-minify

Usage

Create a rollup.config.js configuration file and import the plugin:

import { minify } from 'rollup-plugin-esbuild-minify'

export default {
  input: 'src/index.js',
  output: { file: 'dist/main.js', format: 'iife', sourcemap: true },
  plugins: [
    minify({ logLevel: 'debug', logLimit: 100 })
  ]
}

Then call rollup either via the command-line or programmatically.
