@jjwesterkamp/remove-assets-webpack-plugin

A simple webpack plugin to remove assets from compilations.

Installation

$ npm install --save-dev @jjwesterkamp/remove-assets-webpack-plugin

Usage

Add a new plugin instance to your webpack configuration:

const RemoveAssetsWebpackPlugin = require('@jjwesterkamp/remove-assets-webpack-plugin');

module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        new RemoveAssetsWebpackPlugin({

            // enter RegExp patterns here...
            patterns: [
                // For instance, to remove .js and .js.map output from CSS
                // entries (matches output files within /css/, ending with
                // .js or .js.map)
                /^css\/.+\.js(\.map)?$/,
            ],

            // optionally enable console output of the used patterns and
            // matched assets that will be removed from the compilation.
            enablelog: true
        })
    ]
}

When enableLog is set to true, the plugin will output the used patterns and removed matching assets to the console like in the following image. This can be handy for debugging your webpack configuration:
