How to omit sourcemaps in Angular-CLI 6+ [duplicate]

Question

I want to build with ng build without sourcemaps. In previous versions, I could use the --no-sourcemap or --sourcemap=false parameter, but now I get:

Unknown option: '--sourcemap'

How can I omit source maps in Angular-CLI 6+?

Answer 1

Use --source-map . It takes default value true. So following command will not create sourcemaps:

ng build --source-map=false

Similarly --prod avoids creating sourcemaps by default but if you want to create then just use --source-map in the end to create sourcemaps.

Follow official Docs

Update:

For Angular cli 7 use below:

ng build --sourceMap=false

And if you want prod build with production config & bundling (thus don't want sourcemaps included in build folder) then use :

ng build --prod=true

You can also add sourceMap: false into the configuration of angular.json as shown below

I suppose they are false by default for production build when using Angular 6+ with cli.
