mangle-css-class-webpack-plugin

Minifies and obfuscates the class names in JavaScript, CSS, and HTML

Install

  npm i --save-dev mangle-css-class-webpack-plugin

  yarn add --dev mangle-css-class-webpack-plugin

Usage

The plugin will generate optimized class name in HTML, JavaScript, and CSS files. configure as follows:

webpack.config.js

const MangleCssClassPlugin = require('mangle-css-class-webpack-plugin');

module.exports = {
  ...
  plugins: [
    new MangleCssClassPlugin({
      // Modify `classNameRegExp` as your product. the sample regexp maches 'l-main', 'c-textbox', 'l-main__header', 'c-textbox__input', ...
      classNameRegExp: '[cl]-[a-z][a-zA-Z0-9_]*',
      log: true,
    }),
  ],
};

This will replace class name matched regex in HTML, JavaScript, CSS files. Identify the class names not to match unexpected words since it replaces all words that are matched with the classNameRegExp. I suggest that your class names have specific prefix or suffix that identified as a class name.

e.g.

Source code

<!-- html -->
<main class='l-abc'>
  <div class='l-efg' />
</main>

// js
document.querySelector('l-efg');

// css
.l-abc {
}
.l-abc .l-efg {
}

Output code

<!-- html -->
<main class='a'>
  <div class='b' />
</main>

// js
document.querySelector('b');

// css
.a {
}
.a .b {
}
