webpack-hasjs-plugin
This plugin performs has.js filtering on source modules based on a statically defined set of features. Feature conditionals who's values are defined in the static feature set are replaced with the value of the feature. The resulting dead code will then be pruned by the uglifier.
For example, the following code:
```javascript
if (has('foo')) {
console.log('foo');
} else {
console.log('!foo');
}
```
with these options:
```javascript
{
features: {foo: true}
}
```
will yield the following output
```javascript
if (true) {
console.log('foo');
} else {
console.log('!foo');
}
```
After the uglifier prunes dead code branches, only the call to console.log('foo') will remain. If a feature is not defined in the static feature set, then the code using that feature is unaffected unless the option coerceUndefinedToFalse is truthy, in which case the result will be as if the feature had been defined with a value of false. The values of the statically defined features may be number, boolean, or string. Any other types are ignored.
Install
```bash npm i -D webpack-hasjs-plugin ```Usage
```javascript // webpack.config.js var HasJsPlugin = require('webpack-hasjs-plugin'); module.exports = { // ... snip ... plugins:new HasJsPlugin({features: {foo: true,bar: false}})Options
features
Properties map of feature name/value pairs.coerceUndefinedToFalse
If true, then any calls to thehas function which specify a feature not declared in features will be treated as if the feature had been defined with a value of false.
Limitations
Due to limitations in the webpack parser, this plugin does not transform the source when thehas() function call is a member of a comparison operator involving greater-than or less-than (e.g. if (has('ie') >= 10)), or, before webpack 5, if it used in an assignment (e.g. var foo = has('foo') && getFoo();). It does work, however, if the result of the ternary operator (e.g. var foo=has('foo')?getFoo():undefined;) is used in the assignment.
Fortunately, these problematic usage patterns are not common, and if they are encountered, the code is simply left alone, so they are not harmful.
