rollup-plugin-jscc

Conditional compilation and compile-time variable replacement for Rollup.

rollup-plugin-jscc is not a transpiler, it is a wrapper of jscc, a tiny and powerful, language agnostic file preprocessor that uses JavaScript to transform text based on expressions at compile time.

With jscc, you have:

Conditional inclusion/exclusion of blocks, based on compile-time variables*
Compile-time variables with all the power of JavaScript expressions
Replacement of variables in the sources, by its value at compile-time
Sourcemap support, useful for JavaScript sources.
TypeScript v3 definitions

* This feature allows you the conditional declaration of ES6 imports (See the example).

Since jscc is a preprocessor, rollup-plugin-jscc is implemented as a file loader, so it runs before any transpiler and is invisible to them. This behavior allows you to use it in a wide range of file types but, if necessary, it can be used as a Rollup transformer instead of a loader.

NOTE

The removal of non-jscc comments is not included, but you can use rollup-plugin-cleanup, which brings compaction and normalization of lines in addition to the conditional removal of JS comments.

Support my Work

I'm a full-stack developer with more than 20 year of experience and I try to share most of my work for free and help others, but this takes a significant amount of time, effort and coffee so, if you like my work, please consider...

Of course, feedback, PRs, and stars are also welcome 🙃

Thanks for your support!

Install

npm i rollup-plugin-jscc -D
# or
yarn add rollup-plugin-jscc -D

rollup-plugin-jscc requires rollup v2.0 and node.js v10.12 or later.

Usage

rollup.config.js

import { rollup } from 'rollup'
import jscc from 'rollup-plugin-jscc'

export default {
  input: 'src/main.js',
  plugins: [
    jscc({
      values: { _APPNAME: 'My App', _DEBUG: 1 },
    }),
  ],
  //...other options
}

in your source:

/*#if _DEBUG
import mylib from 'mylib-debug';
//#else */
import mylib from 'mylib'
//#endif

mylib.log('Starting $_APPNAME v$_VERSION...')

output:

import mylib from 'mylib-debug'

mylib.log('Starting My App v1.0.0...')

That's it.

* jscc has two predefined memvars: _FILE and _VERSION, in addition to giving access to the environment variables through the nodejs proccess.env object.

Options

Plain JavaScript object, with all properties optional.

Name	Type	Description
asloader	boolean	If `false`, run the plugin as a `transformer`, otherwise run as `loader` (the default).
escapeQuotes	string	String with the type of quotes to escape in the output of strings: 'single', 'double' or 'both'. Default nothing.
keepLines	boolean	Preserves the empty lines of directives and blocks that were removed. Use this option with `sourceMap:false` if you are interested only in keeping the line numbering. Default `false`
mapHires	boolean	Make a hi-res source-map, if `sourceMap:true` (the default). Default `true`
prefixes	string \| RegExp \| Array<string\|RegExp>	The start of a directive. That is the characters before the '#', usually the start of comments. Default `['//', '/*', '<!--']` (with one optional space after them).
sourcemap	boolean	Must include a sourcemap? Should be the same value as the property `sourcemap` of the Rollup output. Default `true`
mapContent	boolean	Include the original source in the sourcemap, if `sourceMap:true` (the default). Default `true`
values	object	Plain object defining the variables used by jscc during the preprocessing. Default `{}`
extensions	string \| Array<string>	Array of strings that specifies the file extensions to process. Default `['js', 'jsx', 'ts', 'tsx', 'mjs', 'tag']`
include	string \| Array<string>	minimatch or array of minimatch patterns for paths that must be included in the processing.
exclude	string \| Array<string>	minimatch or array of minimatch patterns for paths that should be ignored.
