Introducing the Socket Python SDK
The initial version of the Socket Python SDK is now on PyPI, enabling developers to more easily interact with the Socket REST API in Python projects.
@esbuild/freebsd-x64
Advanced tools
The FreeBSD 64-bit binary for esbuild, a JavaScript bundler.
The @esbuild/freebsd-x64 npm package is a binary package for esbuild, an extremely fast JavaScript bundler and minifier. This specific package is tailored for FreeBSD x64 systems. It allows developers to bundle JavaScript files for the browser, transpile TypeScript, and minify code among other functionalities, directly on FreeBSD x64 systems.
JavaScript Bundling
This code sample demonstrates how to bundle a JavaScript file along with its dependencies into a single file. This is useful for optimizing web applications for production.
require('esbuild').build({
entryPoints: ['app.js'],
bundle: true,
outfile: 'out.js'
}).catch(() => process.exit(1))
TypeScript Transpilation
This example shows how to transpile TypeScript files into JavaScript, allowing developers to use TypeScript's features while targeting environments that only support JavaScript.
require('esbuild').build({
entryPoints: ['app.ts'],
bundle: true,
outfile: 'out.js',
loader: { '.ts': 'ts' }
}).catch(() => process.exit(1))
Code Minification
This code snippet demonstrates the minification of JavaScript code to reduce file size, which is beneficial for improving load times on web pages.
require('esbuild').build({
entryPoints: ['app.js'],
minify: true,
outfile: 'out.min.js'
}).catch(() => process.exit(1))
Webpack is a powerful module bundler that can transform, bundle, or package just about any resource or asset. Compared to @esbuild/freebsd-x64, webpack offers a more extensive plugin system and configuration options, but esbuild is known for its speed and simplicity.
Parcel is a web application bundler, differentiated by its developer-friendly zero configuration approach. While Parcel and @esbuild/freebsd-x64 both aim to simplify the bundling process, esbuild typically offers faster build times due to its efficient Go-based architecture.
Rollup is a module bundler for JavaScript which compiles small pieces of code into something larger and more complex, such as a library or application. Rollup focuses on ES modules, making it ideal for libraries. Compared to @esbuild/freebsd-x64, Rollup has a different focus but both provide efficient bundling solutions.
This is the FreeBSD 64-bit binary for esbuild, a JavaScript bundler and minifier. See https://github.com/evanw/esbuild for details.
0.23.1
Allow using the node:
import prefix with es*
targets (#3821)
The node:
prefix on imports is an alternate way to import built-in node modules. For example, import fs from "fs"
can also be written import fs from "node:fs"
. This only works with certain newer versions of node, so esbuild removes it when you target older versions of node such as with --target=node14
so that your code still works. With the way esbuild's platform-specific feature compatibility table works, this was added by saying that only newer versions of node support this feature. However, that means that a target such as --target=node18,es2022
removes the node:
prefix because none of the es*
targets are known to support this feature. This release adds the support for the node:
flag to esbuild's internal compatibility table for es*
to allow you to use compound targets like this:
// Original code
import fs from 'node:fs'
fs.open
// Old output (with --bundle --format=esm --platform=node --target=node18,es2022)
import fs from "fs";
fs.open;
// New output (with --bundle --format=esm --platform=node --target=node18,es2022)
import fs from "node:fs";
fs.open;
Fix a panic when using the CLI with invalid build flags if --analyze
is present (#3834)
Previously esbuild's CLI could crash if it was invoked with flags that aren't valid for a "build" API call and the --analyze
flag is present. This was caused by esbuild's internals attempting to add a Go plugin (which is how --analyze
is implemented) to a null build object. The panic has been fixed in this release.
Fix incorrect location of certain error messages (#3845)
This release fixes a regression that caused certain errors relating to variable declarations to be reported at an incorrect location. The regression was introduced in version 0.18.7 of esbuild.
Print comments before case clauses in switch statements (#3838)
With this release, esbuild will attempt to print comments that come before case clauses in switch statements. This is similar to what esbuild already does for comments inside of certain types of expressions. Note that these types of comments are not printed if minification is enabled (specifically whitespace minification).
Fix a memory leak with pluginData
(#3825)
With this release, the build context's internal pluginData
cache will now be cleared when starting a new build. This should fix a leak of memory from plugins that return pluginData
objects from onResolve
and/or onLoad
callbacks.
