I am looking for a way to prevent r.js (RequireJS' optimization script) from ugylyfying our JS-modules to maintain readability for debugging purposes. I expect the script (running on Node.js by the way) to have some command line option to be passed. Unfortunately, the documentation if this tool is rather poor.
Pass optimize=none
on the command line to r.js, or include optimize: "none"
in your build script.
eg:
({
baseUrl: ".",
paths: {
jquery: "some/other/jquery"
},
name: "main",
out: "main-built.js",
optimize: "none"
})
See http://requirejs.org/docs/optimization.html for more information.
If you check the source, you will see that the default is set to "uglify". Here are the options which are accepted:
uglify
: (default) uses UglifyJS to minify the code.uglify2
: in version 2.1.2+. Uses UglifyJS2.closure
: uses Google's Closure Compiler in simple optimization mode to minify the code. Only available if running the optimizer using Java.closure.keepLines
: Same as closure option, but keeps line returns in the minified files.none
: no minification will be performed.If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
