ESLint is Now Language-Agnostic: Linting JSON, Markdown, and Beyond
ESLint has added JSON and Markdown linting support with new officially-supported plugins, expanding its versatility beyond JavaScript.
@esbuild/linux-arm
Advanced tools
The @esbuild/linux-arm package is a binary package for the esbuild bundler optimized for Linux ARM architecture. Esbuild is an extremely fast JavaScript bundler and minifier. It compiles TypeScript and JavaScript into highly optimized code, significantly reducing the size and improving the performance of web applications. The @esbuild/linux-arm package specifically targets devices running on ARM processors, such as Raspberry Pi, making it an ideal choice for development in ARM-based environments.
JavaScript and TypeScript Bundling
This feature allows you to bundle JavaScript and TypeScript files into a single file. The code sample demonstrates how to bundle an entry file 'app.js' into 'out.js', targeting specific browser versions.
require('esbuild').build({
entryPoints: ['app.js'],
bundle: true,
outfile: 'out.js',
platform: 'browser',
target: ['chrome58', 'firefox57', 'safari11', 'edge16']
}).catch(() => process.exit(1))
Minification
This feature enables the minification of JavaScript files, reducing their size for production. The code sample shows how to minify an entry file 'app.js' into 'out.min.js'.
require('esbuild').build({
entryPoints: ['app.js'],
minify: true,
outfile: 'out.min.js'
}).catch(() => process.exit(1))
CSS Bundling and Minification
Esbuild can also bundle and minify CSS files. This code sample demonstrates bundling and minifying a CSS file 'app.css' into 'out.css'.
require('esbuild').build({
entryPoints: ['app.css'],
bundle: true,\n minify: true,
outfile: 'out.css'
}).catch(() => process.exit(1))
Webpack is a powerful module bundler for JavaScript applications. It offers a wide range of plugins and loaders, allowing for a highly customizable build process. Compared to @esbuild/linux-arm, webpack is more feature-rich but significantly slower in terms of build time.
Rollup is another JavaScript module bundler that focuses on producing smaller bundles by eliminating unused code. It is particularly well-suited for libraries and applications using ES modules. While Rollup offers a simpler configuration and efficient bundling, esbuild outperforms it in terms of speed.
Parcel is a web application bundler that offers out-of-the-box support for many file types without the need for configuration. It provides a fast build time similar to esbuild, but esbuild typically has the edge in performance, especially for larger projects.
This is the Linux ARM binary for esbuild, a JavaScript bundler and minifier. See https://github.com/evanw/esbuild for details.
0.23.0
This release deliberately contains backwards-incompatible changes. To avoid automatically picking up releases like this, you should either be pinning the exact version of esbuild
in your package.json
file (recommended) or be using a version range syntax that only accepts patch upgrades such as ^0.22.0
or ~0.22.0
. See npm's documentation about semver for more information.
Revert the recent change to avoid bundling dependencies for node (#3819)
This release reverts the recent change in version 0.22.0 that made --packages=external
the default behavior with --platform=node
. The default is now back to --packages=bundle
.
I've just been made aware that Amazon doesn't pin their dependencies in their "AWS CDK" product, which means that whenever esbuild publishes a new release, many people (potentially everyone?) using their SDK around the world instantly starts using it without Amazon checking that it works first. This change in version 0.22.0 happened to break their SDK. I'm amazed that things haven't broken before this point. This revert attempts to avoid these problems for Amazon's customers. Hopefully Amazon will pin their dependencies in the future.
In addition, this is probably a sign that esbuild is used widely enough that it now needs to switch to a more complicated release model. I may have esbuild use a beta channel model for further development.
Fix preserving collapsed JSX whitespace (#3818)
When transformed, certain whitespace inside JSX elements is ignored completely if it collapses to an empty string. However, the whitespace should only be ignored if the JSX is being transformed, not if it's being preserved. This release fixes a bug where esbuild was previously incorrectly ignoring collapsed whitespace with --jsx=preserve
. Here is an example:
// Original code
<Foo>
<Bar />
</Foo>
// Old output (with --jsx=preserve)
<Foo><Bar /></Foo>;
// New output (with --jsx=preserve)
<Foo>
<Bar />
</Foo>;
