rollup-plugin-named-output v1.0.0

rollup-plugin-named-output

Install

npm i rollup-plugin-named-output -D

Usage

and in rollup.config.js. Typically you'll want to use this plugin along side of multi-input.

import multiInput from 'rollup-plugin-multi-input';
import namedOutput from 'rollup-plugin-named-output';

export default {
    input: ['src/**/index.js'],
    output: {
      format: 'esm',
      dir: 'build'
    },
    plugins: [multiInput(), namedOutput()],
};

Options

mapper (optional)

Type: (fileName) => newFileName

This is called for every output bundle with the fileName. It can either alter the output file name or return a falsy value to leave the file name unchanged.

Motivation

When building libraries we may have a structure similar to the following in src.

.
├── Button
│   ├── Button.js
│   ├── index.js
├── Other
│   ├── Other.js
│   ├── index.js
├── Thing
│   ├── Thing.js
│   ├── index.js
...

And we use multi-input plugin with an input glob like src/**/index.js to allow us to have multiple entry points. The output that gets generated looks like this

.
├── Button
│   ├── index.js
├── Other
│   ├── index.js
├── Thing
│   ├── index.js
...

But what if we want the output to be named exactly like how we had in src?

Solution

This plugin allows you to generate named output files. It's similar (or counterpart) to named-directory plugin, which allows you to take the named input.

Use case explained in the above section can be addressed using this plugin, simply use the plugin as described in the Usage section. You can also optionally pass in a mapper function if you want to customize the filename further.
