  • smart splits dependencies
  • handles top level await
  • typescript and javascript
    • handles static import and export statements
    • handles dynamic import() statements
    • handles fetch() statements
    • handles WebWorker imports
    • handles ServiceWorker imports
  • html
    • handles <link>, <script>, <style> and <img> tags
    • handles style attributes
    • handles webmanifest files
  • css
    • handles css @import statements
    • supports postcss-preset-env stage 2 and nesting-rules by default
  • CLI
    • built in code optimization and minification with --optimize option
    • built in file watcher with --watch option

Dev Server CLI

deno run --unstable --allow-read --allow-write --allow-net --allow-env https://deno.land/x/bundler/server_cli.ts

SPA Dev Server CLI

API

Bundler Example 

import { createBundler } from "https//deno.land/x/bundler/mod.ts";
const bundler = createBundler(); // create bundler instance with default plugins

const input = "src/index.html";
const outputMap = { [input]: "index.html" };

const { bundles } = await bundler.bundle([inputs], { outputMap });

Advanced Bundler Example 

import { Bundler } from "https//deno.land/x/bundler/mod.ts";

const input = "src/index.html";
const outputMap = { [input]: "index.html" };

const plugins = [ … ];
const bundler = new Bundler(plugins); // create bundler instance with custom plugins

const graph = await bundler.createGraph([input], { outputMap });
const chunks = await bundler.createChunks(inputs, graph);
const bundles = await bundler.createBundles(chunks, graph);

Bundler Server 

import { BundlerServer } from "https//deno.land/x/bundler/mod.ts";
const server = new BundlerServer();
await server.listen({ port: 8000 });

Smart Splitting

Bundler automatically analyzes the dependency graph and splits dependencies into separate files, if the code is used in different entry points. This prevents code duplication and allows multiple bundle files to share code.

Unstable

This module requires deno to run with the --unstable flag. It is likely to change in the future.
