esbuild-plugin-mxn-copy

A Esbuild plugin for copying assets into the output directory of your bundle

• ~12.7kb size

Install

$ npm install --save-dev esbuild-plugin-mxn-copy

Usage

Suppose we have a bunch of assets in ./src directory:

# ls -1 ./src
index.html
index.js
logo.svg
preact

We want some of these files to be copied over into the output folder of our esbuild bundle.

Create a esbuild.config.js build script file and import the plugin:

// esbuild.config.js
import { build } from "esbuild";
import esbuildMxnCopy from "esbuild-plugin-mxn-copy";
// ... other imports, etc ...

build({
  entryPoints: {
    bundle: "src/index.js"
  },
  bundle: true,
  minify: false,
  sourcemap: true,
  outdir: "dist",
  // ...
  plugins: [
    esbuildMxnCopy({
      copy: [
        // You can include files & directories
          { from: "src/index.html", to: "dist/index.html" },
          { from: "src/logo.svg",   to: "dist/" },
          { from: "src/preact",     to: "dist/preact" }
        ],
      verbose: true
    })
  ],
  // ...
})
.catch((e) => console.error(e.message));

Then call node esbuild.config.js or add a build script to your package.json file like this:

{
  "scripts": {
    "build": "node esbuild.config.js"
  }
}

The build script can now be invoked like this:

$ npm run build

On final bundle generation the provided files will be copied over into the output folder of your rollup bundle, maintaining the original hierarchy and relativity to the input file.

Options

This plugin has the following configuration options:

Property	Description	Default
copy	An array of objects with paths to files or directories to copy from source to destination.	[]

restrictive	Enabling this option restricts access to all directories, except for input and output.	false
