gulp-plugin-terser

Gulp plugin to minify files with terser

Getting Started

Installation

Installation can be done via package managers such as npm or yarn

$ npm install -D gulp-plugin-terser
# or
$ yarn add --dev gulp-plugin-terser

Usage

// gulpfile.js
const gulp = require('gulp');
const terser = require('gulp-plugin-terser');
function minify() {
  const options = {
    suffix: '.min.js',
    terserOptions: {
      output: {
        comments: true,
      },
    },
  };
  return gulp
    .src('dist/*.js', { sourcemaps: true })
    .pipe(sourcemap.init())
    .pipe(terser(options))
    .pipe(sourcemap.write('.'))
    .pipe(gulp.dest('dist/', { sourcemaps: '.' }));
}
gulp.series(minify);

The above gulp task will minify all the .js files in the dist directory and writes it into a new file with extension .min.js in the same directory.

Options

• suffix: {string | boolean} - defaults to .min.js.
• terserOptions: {object} - refer https://github.com/terser/terser#minify-options
