PR.Changelog Entry
Added
botframework-directlinejs
from business logic of Web Chat for better tree-shaking, by @compulim, in PR #4645Description
Outside of
createDirectLine
, Web Chat should decouple itself frombotframework-directlinejs
.We found that the only coupling is at
connectSaga.js
, which it imported implementation code frombf-dljs
. For other places, it is importing only the types.After this is done, we saw a 11.5% decrease in bundle size, if only our root UI component is imported.
Design
Web Chat generally decouple itself from
bf-dljs
. Only typing (non-runtime code) and explicit-import (import { createDirectLine } from 'bf-wc'
) is coupled tobf-dljs
.Once this is done, when importing our root UI component, we saw a sharp decrease of app bundle size:
However, note should be taken.
ReactWebChat
is NOT expected to be imported viabf-wc/lib/ReactWebChat
. Web Chat should carefully design its named exports for this to fully work. And named exports could means breaking changes for web devs who use NPM version of Web Chat.Specific Changes
