Make global names more compact when
||=is available (#2331)With this release, the code esbuild generates for the
--global-name=setting is now slightly shorter when you don't configure esbuild such that the||=operator is unsupported (e.g. with--target=chrome80or--supported:logical-assignment=false):// Original code exports.foo = 123 // Old output (with --format=iife --global-name=foo.bar.baz --minify) var foo=foo||{};foo.bar=foo.bar||{};foo.bar.baz=(()=>{var b=(a,o)=>()=>(o||a((o={exports:{}}).exports,o),o.exports);var c=b(f=>{f.foo=123});return c();})(); // New output (with --format=iife --global-name=foo.bar.baz --minify) var foo;((foo||={}).bar||={}).baz=(()=>{var b=(a,o)=>()=>(o||a((o={exports:{}}).exports,o),o.exports);var c=b(f=>{f.foo=123});return c();})(); -
Fix
--mangle-quoted=falsewith--minify-syntax=trueIf property mangling is active and
--mangle-quotedis disabled, quoted properties are supposed to be preserved. However, there was a case when this didn't happen if--minify-syntaxwas enabled, since that internally transformsx['y']intox.yto reduce code size. This issue has been fixed:// Original code x.foo = x['bar'] = { foo: y, 'bar': z } // Old output (with --mangle-props=. --mangle-quoted=false --minify-syntax=true) x.a = x.b = { a: y, bar: z }; // New output (with --mangle-props=. --mangle-quoted=false --minify-syntax=true) x.a = x.bar = { a: y, bar: z };Notice how the property
foois always used unquoted but the propertybaris always used quoted, sofooshould be consistently mangled whilebarshould be consistently not mangled. -
Fix a minification bug regarding
thisand property initializersWhen minification is enabled, esbuild attempts to inline the initializers of variables that have only been used once into the start of the following expression to reduce code size. However, there was a bug where this transformation could change the value of
thiswhen the initializer is a property access and the start of the following expression is a call expression. This release fixes the bug:// Original code function foo(obj) { let fn = obj.prop; fn(); } // Old output (with --minify) function foo(f){f.prop()} // New output (with --minify) function foo(o){let f=o.prop;f()}
