An esbuild based file-to-file transformer and bundler.

fast and minimal builds with esbuild (integrates with the build api for plugin support - say toodles 👋🏾 to transform api hacks! 😉)

create bundleless distributions with file-to-file transpilation and static asset copying

create es modules + add file extensions to specifiers in modules and declaration files

generate declarations for .cjs, .cts, .js, .jsx, .mjs, .mts, .ts, and .tsx files

resolve path aliases in .cjs, .cts, .d.cts, .d.mts, .d.ts, .js, .jsx, .mjs, .mts, .ts, and .tsx files

yarn add -D @flex-development/mkbuild esbuild typescript

npm i -D flex-development/mkbuild

yarn add -D @flex-development/mkbuild@flex-development/mkbuild esbuild typescript

mkbuild

Running the command above without a build configuration file will create a bundleless esm build with declarations.

Files within the src directory will be transpiled or copied and output to dist/**.{d.mts,mjs}. Declaration files, dist/**.d.mts, will be generated if typescript is installed. The original folder structure and extensions of copied files will remain in tact.

Create build.config.{cjs,cts,js,json,mjs,mts,ts}:

/**
 * @file Build Config
 * @module config/build
 */

import { defineBuildConfig } from '@flex-development/mkbuild'

export default defineBuildConfig({
  // esbuild options; see https://esbuild.github.io/api/#build-api
  sourcemap: 'external',
  sourcesContent: false,
  treeShaking: true,
  tsconfig: 'tsconfig.build.json'
})

See all configuration options here.

Options common to build configs and build entries can be seen here.

/**
 * @file Build Config
 * @module config/build
 */

import { defineBuildConfig } from '@flex-development/mkbuild'
import tsconfig from './tsconfig.build.json' assert { type: 'json' }

export default defineBuildConfig({
  entries: [
    { dts: true, ignore: ['cli.ts'] }, // dist/**.{d.mts,mjs}
    { dts: true, ext: '.cjs', format: 'cjs', ignore: ['cli.ts'] }, // dist/**.{cjs,d.cts}
    { dts: 'only', ext: '.js', ignore: ['cli.ts'] }, // dist/**.d.ts
    { bundle: true, minify: true, source: 'src/cli.ts' } // dist/cli.mjs
  ],
  platform: 'node',
  sourcemap: 'external',
  sourcesContent: false,
  target: [tsconfig.compilerOptions.target, 'node14'],
  treeShaking: true,
  tsconfig: 'tsconfig.build.json'
})
