terser-webpack-plugin
This plugin uses terser to minify your JavaScript.
Getting Started
To begin, you'll need to install terser-webpack-plugin
:
$ npm install terser-webpack-plugin --save-dev
Then add the plugin to your webpack
config. For example:
webpack.config.js
const TerserPlugin = require('terser-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [new TerserPlugin()],
},
};
And run webpack
via your preferred method.
Options
test
Type: String|RegExp|Array<String|RegExp>
Default: /\.m?js(\?.*)?$/i
Test to match files against.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
test: /\.js(\?.*)?$/i,
}),
],
},
};
include
Type: String|RegExp|Array<String|RegExp>
Default: undefined
Files to include.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
include: /\/includes/,
}),
],
},
};
exclude
Type: String|RegExp|Array<String|RegExp>
Default: undefined
Files to exclude.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
exclude: /\/excludes/,
}),
],
},
};
chunkFilter
Type: Function<(chunk) -> boolean>
Default: () => true
Allowing to filter which chunks should be uglified (by default all chunks are uglified).
Return true
to uglify the chunk, false
otherwise.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
chunkFilter: (chunk) => {
// Exclude uglification for the `vendor` chunk
if (chunk.name === 'vendor') {
return false;
}
return true;
},
}),
],
},
};
cache
⚠ Doesn't work with webpack 5!
Type: Boolean|String
Default: true
Enable file caching.
Default path to cache directory: node_modules/.cache/terser-webpack-plugin
.
ℹ️ If you use your own
minify
function please read theminify
section for cache invalidation correctly.
Boolean
Enable/disable file caching.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
cache: true,
}),
],
},
};
String
Enable file caching and set path to cache directory.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
cache: 'path/to/cache',
}),
],
},
};
cacheKeys
⚠ Doesn't work with webpack 5!
Type: Function<(defaultCacheKeys, file) -> Object>
Default: defaultCacheKeys => defaultCacheKeys
Allows you to override default cache keys.
Default cache keys:
({
terser: require('terser/package.json').version, // terser version
'terser-webpack-plugin': require('../package.json').version, // plugin version
'terser-webpack-plugin-options': this.options, // plugin options
path: compiler.outputPath ? `${compiler.outputPath}/${file}` : file, // asset path
hash: crypto
.createHash('md4')
.update(input)
.digest('hex'), // source file hash
});
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
cache: true,
cacheKeys: (defaultCacheKeys, file) => {
defaultCacheKeys.myCacheKey = 'myCacheKeyValue';
return defaultCacheKeys;
},
}),
],
},
};
parallel
Type: 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, #202).
Boolean
Enable/disable multi-process parallel running.
webpack.config.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
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
parallel: 4,
}),
],
},
};
sourceMap
Type: Boolean
Default: false
(see below for details around devtool
value and SourceMapDevToolPlugin
plugin)
Works only with source-map
, inline-source-map
, hidden-source-map
and nosources-source-map
values for the devtool
option.
Why?
eval
wraps modules ineval("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.
The plugin respect the devtool
and using the SourceMapDevToolPlugin
plugin.
Using supported devtool
values enable source map generation.
Using SourceMapDevToolPlugin
with enabled the columns
option enables source map generation.
Use source maps to map error message locations to modules (this slows down the compilation).
If you use your own minify
function please read the minify
section for handling source maps correctly.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
sourceMap: true,
}),
],
},
};
minify
Type: Function
Default: undefined
Allows you to override default minify function. By default plugin uses terser package. Useful for using and testing unpublished versions or forks.
⚠️ Always use
require
insideminify
function whenparallel
option enabled.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
minify: (file, sourceMap) => {
const extractedComments = [];
// Custom logic for extract comments
const { error, map, code, warnings } = require('uglify-module') // Or require('./path/to/uglify-module')
.minify(file, {
/* Your options for minification */
});
return { error, map, code, warnings, extractedComments };
},
}),
],
},
};
terserOptions
Type: Object
Default: default
Terser minify options.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
terserOptions: {
ecma: undefined,
warnings: false,
parse: {},
compress: {},
mangle: true, // Note `mangle.properties` is `false` by default.
module: false,
output: null,
toplevel: false,
nameCache: null,
ie8: false,
keep_classnames: undefined,
keep_fnames: false,
safari10: false,
},
}),
],
},
};
extractComments
Type: Boolean|String|RegExp|Function<(node, comment) -> Boolean|Object>|Object
Default: true
Whether comments shall be extracted to a separate file, (see details).
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.output.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
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
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
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
extractComments: /@extract/i,
}),
],
},
};
Function<(node, comment) -> Boolean>
All comments that match the given expression will be extracted to the separate file.
webpack.config.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
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
extractComments: {
condition: /^\**!|@preserve|@license|@cc_on/i,
filename: (file, fileData) => {
// ⚠ webpack 5: there is only fileData parameter
// A file can contain a query string (for example when you have `output.filename: '[name].js?[chunkhash]'`)

return `License information can be found in ${licenseFile}`;
},
},
}),
],
},
};
filename

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

}),
],
},
};
warningsFilter
Type: Function<(warning, source, file) -> Boolean>
Default: () => true
Allow to filter terser warnings.
Return true
to keep the warning, a falsy value (false
/null
/undefined
) otherwise.
⚠️ The
source
argument will containundefined
if you don't use source maps.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
warningsFilter: (warning, source, file) => {
if (/Dropping unreachable code/i.test(warning)) {

Examples
Preserve Comments
Extract all legal comments (i.e. /^\**!|@preserve|@license|@cc_on/i
) and preserve /@license/i
comments.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
terserOptions: {
output: {
comments: /@license/i,
},
},
extractComments: true,
}),
],
},
};
Remove Comments
If you avoid building with comments, use this config:
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
terserOptions: {
output: {
comments: false,
},
},
extractComments: false,
}),
],
},
};
Custom Minify Function
Override default minify function - use uglify-js
for minification.
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
optimization: {
minimize: true,
minimizer: [
new TerserPlugin({
// Uncomment lines below for cache invalidation correctly
// cache: true,
// cacheKeys: (defaultCacheKeys) => {
// delete defaultCacheKeys.terser;
//
// return Object.assign(
// {},
// defaultCacheKeys,
// { 'uglify-js': require('uglify-js/package.json').version },
// );
// },
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);
},
}),
],
},
};
