remove console.logs with Webpack & Uglify

问题

I am trying to remove console.logs with Webpack's Uglify plugin but it seems that Uglify plugin that comes bundled with Webpack doesn't have that option, its not mentioned in documentation.

I am initializing uglify from webpack like this: new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin()

My understanding is that I can use standalone Uglify lib to get all the options, but I don't know which one?

The problem is that drop_console isn't working.

回答1:

With UglifyJsPlugin we can handle comments, warnings, console logs but it will not be a good idea to remove all these in development mode. First check whether you are running webpack for prov env or dev env, if it is prod env then you can remove all these, like this:

var debug = process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production";

plugins: !debug ? [
   new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin({

     // Eliminate comments
        comments: false,

    // Compression specific options
       compress: {
         // remove warnings
            warnings: false,

         // Drop console statements
            drop_console: true
       },
    })
]
: []

UPDATE 2019 Need to use terser plugin now for ES6 support in webpack v4 https://github.com/webpack-contrib/terser-webpack-plugin#terseroptions

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [
      new TerserPlugin({
        sourceMap: true, // Must be set to true if using source-maps in production
        terserOptions: {
          compress: {
            drop_console: true,
          },
        },
      }),
    ],
  },
};

Try drop_console:

plugins: [
    new Webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin({
      compress: {
        drop_console: true,
      }
    }
]

Update: For webpack v4 it has changed a little:

const UglifyJSPlugin = require('uglifyjs-webpack-plugin');

...

optimization: {
  minimizer: [
    new UglifyJSPlugin({
      uglifyOptions: {
        compress: {
          drop_console: true,
        }
      }
    })
  ]
}

I personally think console logs (especially console.error) are very useful on prod and think it's a good idea to keep them. If you really want to drop specific console functions such as just console.log you should use pure_funcs option e.g. pure_funcs: ['console.log'] and this will drop console.log since pure functions do not produce side effects then Uglify can discard ones not assigned to anything.

optimization: {
  minimizer: [
    new UglifyJSPlugin({
      uglifyOptions: {
        compress: {
          // Drop only console.logs but leave others
          pure_funcs: ['console.log'],
        },
        mangle: {
          // Note: I'm not certain this is needed.
          reserved: ['console.log']
        }
      }
    })
  ]
}

For TerserJS (Uglify is deprecated tbh)

optimization: {
  minimizer: [
    new TerserPlugin({
      terserOptions: {
        compress: {
            drop_console: true
        }
      }
    })
  ]
}

As discussed you can also use pure_funcs alternatively.

This is the new syntax for Webpack v4:

optimization: {
  minimizer: [
    new UglifyJSPlugin({
      uglifyOptions: {
        compress: {
          drop_console: true
        },
        output: {
          comments: false
        }
      },
    }),
  ],
},

回答4:

For uglifyjs-webpack-plugin, wrap options inside an uglifyOptions object:

    plugins: [
    new UglifyJSPlugin({
        uglifyOptions: {
            compress: {
                drop_console: true
            }
        }
    })
]

I have added a comprehensive answer for webpack v4 with debug configuration

const UglifyJsPlugin = require('uglifyjs-webpack-plugin')
var debug = process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production";

.....
optimization: {
        minimizer: !debug ? [
            new UglifyJsPlugin({

                    // Compression specific options
                    uglifyOptions: {
                        // Eliminate comments
                        comments: false,

                        compress: {
                            // remove warnings
                                warnings: false,

                            // Drop console statements
                                drop_console: true
                        },
                    }

                })
            ]
            : []
    }

My scripts in package.json are like so:

"webpackDev": "npm run clean && export NODE_ENV=development && npx webpack",
"webpackProd": "npm run clean && export NODE_ENV=production && npx webpack -p"

回答6:

this is what I've done to remove alert() and console.log() from my codes. global_defs => replace alerts with console.log then drop_console removes all console.logs and now nothing shows up in my browser console

     new UglifyJsPlugin({
      uglifyOptions: {
        compress: {
          global_defs: {
            "@alert": "console.log",
          },
          drop_console: true
        }
      }
    }),

plugin versions:

"webpack":3.12.0,
"webpack-cli": "^3.0.3",
"uglifyjs-webpack-plugin": "^1.2.5",

Right now uglifyjs-webpack-plugin v1.2.6 has been released and I used latest documentations for this one, So I suppose there wont be any problem with latest plugin too.

回答7:

Use this is better and works const UglifyEsPlugin = require('uglify-es-webpack-plugin')

module.exports = {
plugins: [
        new UglifyEsPlugin({
            compress:{
                drop_console: true
            }
        }),
] 
}
