Rollup plugin to minify generated bundle. Uses UglifyJS under the hood. There are a few improvements over native uglify:

• uglify is run in worker for every chunk
• errors are displayed with babel code frame

Note: uglify-js is able to transpile only es5 syntax. If you want to transpile es6+ syntax use terser instead

yarn add rollup-plugin-uglify --dev

Note: this package requires rollup@0.66 and higher

import { rollup } from "rollup";
import { uglify } from "rollup-plugin-uglify";
rollup({
 input: "main.js",
 plugins: [uglify()]
});

uglify(options);

options - uglifyJS API options

options.sourcemap: boolean

Generates source maps and passes them to rollup. Defaults to true.

options.numWorkers: number

Amount of workers to spawn. Defaults to the number of CPUs minus 1.

If you'd like to preserve comments (for licensing for example), then you can specify a function to do this like so:

uglify({
 output: {
 comments: function(node, comment) {
 if (comment.type === "comment2") {
 // multiline comment
 return /@preserve|@license|@cc_on/i.test(comment.value);
 }
 return false;
 }
 }
});

Alternatively, you can also choose to keep all comments (e.g. if a licensing header has already been prepended by a previous rollup plugin):

uglify({
 output: {
 comments: "all"
 }
});

See UglifyJS documentation for further reference.
