factor-bundle

factor browser-pack bundles into a common bundle and entry-specific bundles

example

x.js:

var z = require('./z.js');
var w = require('./w.js');
console.log(z(5) * w(2));

y.js:

var z = require('./z.js');
console.log(z(2) + 111);

z.js:

module.exports = function (n) { return n * 111 }

w.js:

module.exports = function (n) { return n * 50 }

now pipe some module-deps json into factor-bundle:

$ module-deps x.js y.js | factor-bundle \
  x.js -o bundle/x.js \
  y.js -o bundle/y.js \
  > bundle/common.js

or factor out an existing bundle already compiled by browserify:

$ browserify x.js y.js > bundle.js
$ browser-unpack < bundle.js | factor-bundle \
  x.js -o bundle/x.js \
  y.js -o bundle/y.js \
  > bundle/common.js

and now you can have 2 pages, each with a different combination of script tags but with all the common modules factored out into a common.js to avoid transferring the same code multiple times:

<script src="/bundle/common.js"></script>
<script src="/bundle/x.js"></script>

<script src="/bundle/common.js"></script>
<script src="/bundle/y.js"></script>

to verify this works from node you can do:

$ cat bundle/common.js bundle/x.js | node
55500
$ cat bundle/common.js bundle/y.js | node
333

usage

usage: factor-bundle [ x.js -o bundle/x.js ... ] > bundle/common.js

Read `module-deps` json output from stdin, factoring each entry file out into
the corresponding output file (-o).

If there is a trailing unpaired `-o`, that file will be used for the common
bundle output. Otherwise, the final bundle is written to stdout.

methods

var factor = require('factor-bundle')

var fr = factor(files, opts={})

Return a transform stream tr that factors the array of entry path strings files out into bundle files. The input format that fr expects is described in the module-deps package.

The output format for fr and each of the fr sub-streams given by each 'stream' event is also in the module-deps format.

The files held in common among > opts.threshold (default: 1) bundles will be output on the fr stream itself. The entry-specific bundles are diverted into each 'stream' event's output.

events

fr.on('stream', function (stream) {})

Each entry file emits a 'stream' event containing all of the entry-specific rows that are only used by that entry file (when opts.threshold === 1, the default).

The entry file name is available as stream.file.

install

With npm do:

npm install factor-bundle
