# terser-webpack-plugin

This plugin uses [terser](https://github.com/terser/terser) to minify/minimize your JavaScript.

## Getting Started

Webpack v5 comes with the latest `terser-webpack-plugin` out of the box. If you are using Webpack v5 or above and wish to customize the options, you will still need to install `terser-webpack-plugin`. Using Webpack v4, you have to install `terser-webpack-plugin` v4.

To begin, you'll need to install `terser-webpack-plugin`:

```console
npm install terser-webpack-plugin --save-dev
```

```console
yarn add -D terser-webpack-plugin
```

```console
pnpm add -D terser-webpack-plugin
```

Then add the plugin to your `webpack` config. For example:

**webpack.config.js**

```js
const TerserPlugin = require("terser-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [new TerserPlugin()],
  },
};
```

And run `webpack` via your preferred method.

## Note about source maps

**Works only with `source-map`, `inline-source-map`, `hidden-source-map` and `nosources-source-map` values for the [`devtool`](https://webpack.js.org/configuration/devtool/) option.**

Why?

- `eval` wraps modules in `eval("string")` and the minimizer does not handle strings.
- `cheap` has not column information and minimizer generate only a single line, which leave only a single mapping.

Using supported `devtool` values enable source map generation.

## Options

- **[`test`](#test)**
- **[`include`](#include)**
- **[`exclude`](#exclude)**
- **[`parallel`](#parallel)**
- **[`minify`](#minify)**
- **[`terserOptions`](#terseroptions)**
- **[`extractComments`](#extractcomments)**

### `test`

Type:

```ts
type test = string | RegExp | Array<string | RegExp>;
```

Default: `/\.m?js(\?.*)?$/i`

Test to match files against.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        test: /\.js(\?.*)?$/i,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### `include`

Type:

```ts
type include = string | RegExp | Array<string | RegExp>;
```

Default: `undefined`

Files to include.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        include: /\/includes/,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### `exclude`

Type:

```ts
type exclude = string | RegExp | Array<string | RegExp>;
```

Default: `undefined`

Files to exclude.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        exclude: /\/excludes/,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### `parallel`

Type:

```ts
type parallel = boolean | number;
```

Default: `true`

Use multi-process parallel running to improve the build speed.
Default number of concurrent runs: `os.cpus().length - 1`.

> ℹ️ Parallelization can speedup your build significantly and is therefore **highly recommended**.

> ⚠️ If you use **Circle CI** or any other environment that doesn't provide real available count of CPUs then you need to setup explicitly number of CPUs to avoid `Error: Call retries were exceeded` (see [#143](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/terser-webpack-plugin/issues/143), [#202](https://github.com/webpack-contrib/terser-webpack-plugin/issues/202)).

#### `boolean`

Enable/disable multi-process parallel running.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        parallel: true,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

#### `number`

Enable multi-process parallel running and set number of concurrent runs.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        parallel: 4,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### `minify`

Type:

```ts
type minify = (
  input: {
    [file: string]: string;
  },
  sourceMap: import("@jridgewell/trace-mapping").SourceMapInput | undefined,
  minifyOptions: {
    module?: boolean | undefined;
    ecma?: import("terser").ECMA | undefined;
  },
  extractComments:
    | boolean
    | "all"
    | "some"
    | RegExp
    | ((
        astNode: any,
        comment: {
          value: string;
          type: "comment1" | "comment2" | "comment3" | "comment4";
          pos: number;
          line: number;
          col: number;
        }
      ) => boolean)
    | {
        condition?:
          | boolean
          | "all"
          | "some"
          | RegExp
          | ((
              astNode: any,
              comment: {
                value: string;
                type: "comment1" | "comment2" | "comment3" | "comment4";
                pos: number;
                line: number;
                col: number;
              }
            ) => boolean)
          | undefined;
        filename?: string | ((fileData: any) => string) | undefined;
        banner?:
          | string
          | boolean
          | ((commentsFile: string) => string)
          | undefined;
      }
    | undefined
) => Promise<{
  code: string;
  map?: import("@jridgewell/trace-mapping").SourceMapInput | undefined;
  errors?: (string | Error)[] | undefined;
  warnings?: (string | Error)[] | undefined;
  extractedComments?: string[] | undefined;
}>;
```

Default: `TerserPlugin.terserMinify`

Allows you to override default minify function.
By default plugin uses [terser](https://github.com/terser/terser) package.
Useful for using and testing unpublished versions or forks.

> ⚠️ **Always use `require` inside `minify` function when `parallel` option enabled**.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
// Can be async
const minify = (input, sourceMap, minimizerOptions, extractsComments) => {
  // The `minimizerOptions` option contains option from the `terserOptions` option
  // You can use `minimizerOptions.myCustomOption`

// Custom logic for extract comments
  const { map, code } = require("uglify-module") // Or require('./path/to/uglify-module')
    .minify(input, {
      /* Your options for minification */
    });

return { map, code, warnings: [], errors: [], extractedComments: [] };
};

// Used to regenerate `fullhash`/`chunkhash` between different implementation
// Example: you fix a bug in custom minimizer/custom function, but unfortunately webpack doesn't know about it, so you will get the same fullhash/chunkhash
// to avoid this you can provide version of your custom minimizer
// You don't need if you use only `contenthash`
minify.getMinimizerVersion = () => {
  let packageJson;

try {
    // eslint-disable-next-line global-require, import/no-extraneous-dependencies
    packageJson = require("uglify-module/package.json");
  } catch (error) {
    // Ignore
  }

return packageJson && packageJson.version;
};

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        terserOptions: {
          myCustomOption: true,
        },
        minify,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

Type:

```ts
type terserOptions = {
  compress?: boolean | CompressOptions;
  ecma?: ECMA;
  enclose?: boolean | string;
  ie8?: boolean;
  keep_classnames?: boolean | RegExp;
  keep_fnames?: boolean | RegExp;
  mangle?: boolean | MangleOptions;
  module?: boolean;

Terser [options](https://github.com/terser/terser#minify-options).

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        terserOptions: {
          ecma: undefined,
          parse: {},
          compress: {},
          mangle: true, // Note `mangle.properties` is `false` by default.
          module: false,
          // Deprecated
          output: null,
          format: null,
          toplevel: false,
          nameCache: null,
          ie8: false,

### `extractComments`

Type:

```ts
type extractComments =
  | boolean
  | string
  | RegExp
  | ((
      astNode: any,
      comment: {
        value: string;
        type: "comment1" | "comment2" | "comment3" | "comment4";
        pos: number;
        line: number;
        col: number;
      }
    ) => boolean)
  | {
      condition?:
        | boolean
        | "all"
        | "some"
        | RegExp
        | ((
            astNode: any,
            comment: {
              value: string;
              type: "comment1" | "comment2" | "comment3" | "comment4";
              pos: number;
              line: number;
              col: number;
            }
          ) => boolean)
        | undefined;
      filename?: string | ((fileData: any) => string) | undefined;
      banner?:
        | string
        | boolean
        | ((commentsFile: string) => string)
        | undefined;
    };
```

Default: `true`

Whether comments shall be extracted to a separate file, (see [details](https://github.com/webpack/webpack/commit/71933e979e51c533b432658d5e37917f9e71595a)).
By default extract only comments using `/^\**!|@preserve|@license|@cc_on/i` regexp condition and remove remaining comments.
If the original file is named `foo.js`, then the comments will be stored to `foo.js.LICENSE.txt`.
The `terserOptions.format.comments` option specifies whether the comment will be preserved, i.e. it is possible to preserve some comments (e.g. annotations) while extracting others or even preserving comments that have been extracted.

#### `boolean`

Enable/disable extracting comments.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        extractComments: true,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

#### `string`

Extract `all` or `some` (use `/^\**!|@preserve|@license|@cc_on/i` RegExp) comments.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        extractComments: "all",
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

#### `RegExp`

All comments that match the given expression will be extracted to the separate file.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        extractComments: /@extract/i,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

#### `function`

All comments that match the given expression will be extracted to the separate file.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        extractComments: (astNode, comment) => {
          if (/@extract/i.test(comment.value)) {
            return true;
          }

return false;
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

#### `object`

Allow to customize condition for extract comments, specify extracted file name and banner.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        extractComments: {
          condition: /^\**!|@preserve|@license|@cc_on/i,
          filename: (fileData) => {
            // The "fileData" argument contains object with "filename", "basename", "query" and "hash"
            return `${fileData.filename}.LICENSE.txt${fileData.query}`;
          },
          banner: (licenseFile) => {
            return `License information can be found in ${licenseFile}`;
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

##### `condition`

Type:

```ts
type condition =
  | boolean
  | "all"
  | "some"
  | RegExp
  | ((
      astNode: any,
      comment: {
        value: string;
        type: "comment1" | "comment2" | "comment3" | "comment4";
        pos: number;
        line: number;
        col: number;
      }
    ) => boolean)
  | undefined;
```

Condition what comments you need extract.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        extractComments: {
          condition: "some",
          filename: (fileData) => {
            // The "fileData" argument contains object with "filename", "basename", "query" and "hash"
            return `${fileData.filename}.LICENSE.txt${fileData.query}`;
          },
          banner: (licenseFile) => {
            return `License information can be found in ${licenseFile}`;
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

##### `filename`

Type:

```ts
type filename = string | ((fileData: any) => string) | undefined;
```

Default: `[file].LICENSE.txt[query]`

Available placeholders: `[file]`, `[query]` and `[filebase]` (`[base]` for webpack 5).

The file where the extracted comments will be stored.
Default is to append the suffix `.LICENSE.txt` to the original filename.

> ⚠️ We highly recommend using the `txt` extension. Using `js`/`cjs`/`mjs` extensions may conflict with existing assets which leads to broken code.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        extractComments: {
          condition: /^\**!|@preserve|@license|@cc_on/i,
          filename: "extracted-comments.js",
          banner: (licenseFile) => {
            return `License information can be found in ${licenseFile}`;
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

##### `banner`

Type:

```ts
type banner = string | boolean | ((commentsFile: string) => string) | undefined;
```

Default: `/*! For license information please see ${commentsFile} */`

The banner text that points to the extracted file and will be added on top of the original file.
Can be `false` (no banner), a `String`, or a `Function<(string) -> String>` that will be called with the filename where extracted comments have been stored.
Will be wrapped into comment.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        extractComments: {
          condition: true,
          filename: (fileData) => {
            // The "fileData" argument contains object with "filename", "basename", "query" and "hash"
            return `${fileData.filename}.LICENSE.txt${fileData.query}`;
          },
          banner: (commentsFile) => {
            return `My custom banner about license information ${commentsFile}`;
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

## Examples

### Preserve Comments

Extract all legal comments (i.e. `/^\**!|@preserve|@license|@cc_on/i`) and preserve `/@license/i` comments.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        terserOptions: {
          format: {
            comments: /@license/i,
          },
        },
        extractComments: true,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### Remove Comments

If you avoid building with comments, use this config:

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        terserOptions: {
          format: {
            comments: false,
          },
        },
        extractComments: false,
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### [`uglify-js`](https://github.com/mishoo/UglifyJS)

[`UglifyJS`](https://github.com/mishoo/UglifyJS) is a JavaScript parser, minifier, compressor and beautifier toolkit.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        minify: TerserPlugin.uglifyJsMinify,
        // `terserOptions` options will be passed to `uglify-js`
        // Link to options - https://github.com/mishoo/UglifyJS#minify-options
        terserOptions: {},
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### [`swc`](https://github.com/swc-project/swc)

[`swc`](https://github.com/swc-project/swc) is a super-fast compiler written in rust; producing widely-supported javascript from modern standards and typescript.

> ⚠ the `extractComments` option is not supported and all comments will be removed by default, it will be fixed in future

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        minify: TerserPlugin.swcMinify,
        // `terserOptions` options will be passed to `swc` (`@swc/core`)
        // Link to options - https://swc.rs/docs/config-js-minify
        terserOptions: {},
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### [`esbuild`](https://github.com/evanw/esbuild)

[`esbuild`](https://github.com/evanw/esbuild) is an extremely fast JavaScript bundler and minifier.

> ⚠ the `extractComments` option is not supported and all legal comments (i.e. copyright, licenses and etc) will be preserved

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        minify: TerserPlugin.esbuildMinify,
        // `terserOptions` options will be passed to `esbuild`
        // Link to options - https://esbuild.github.io/api/#minify
        // Note: the `minify` options is true by default (and override other `minify*` options), so if you want to disable the `minifyIdentifiers` option (or other `minify*` options) please use:
        // terserOptions: {
        //   minify: false,
        //   minifyWhitespace: true,
        //   minifyIdentifiers: false,
        //   minifySyntax: true,
        // },
        terserOptions: {},
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### Custom Minify Function

Override default minify function - use `uglify-js` for minification.

**webpack.config.js**

```js
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        minify: (file, sourceMap) => {
          // https://github.com/mishoo/UglifyJS2#minify-options
          const uglifyJsOptions = {
            /* your `uglify-js` package options */
          };

if (sourceMap) {
            uglifyJsOptions.sourceMap = {
              content: sourceMap,
            };
          }

return require("uglify-js").minify(file, uglifyJsOptions);
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

### Typescript

With default terser minify function:

```ts
module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        terserOptions: {
          compress: true,
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};
```

With built-in minify functions:

```ts
import type { JsMinifyOptions as SwcOptions } from "@swc/core";
import type { MinifyOptions as UglifyJSOptions } from "uglify-js";
import type { TransformOptions as EsbuildOptions } from "esbuild";
import type { MinifyOptions as TerserOptions } from "terser";

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimize: true,
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin<SwcOptions>({
        minify: TerserPlugin.swcMinify,
        terserOptions: {
          // `swc` options
        },
      }),
      new TerserPlugin<UglifyJSOptions>({
        minify: TerserPlugin.uglifyJsMinify,
        terserOptions: {
          // `uglif-js` options
        },
      }),
