Use source maps or bundle prod build about angular2-seed HOT 8 CLOSED

can we solve the sourcemap problem upstream on angular2? we should really have .js, .map.js and .d.ts being distributed to npm. anything else is gonna require a bunch of configuration for end users.

can we solve the sourcemap problem upstream on angular2?

by publishing prod instead of dev to the root ?

i think that's probably the best solution long term.

So, was trying to see what we can do on this repo side (till the decision is made in the main repo) with:

preLoaders: [
      {test: /\.js$/, loader: 'source-map-loader'}
]

but getting flooded with:

WARNING in ./~/rxjs/Observable.js
Cannot find source file '../../src/Observable.ts': Error: Cannot resolve 'file' or 'directory' ../../src/Observable.ts in /home/pk/work/gitrepos/gh/pkozlowski-opensource/angular2-seed/node_modules/rxjs

It looks like source maps might be off in the rxjs repo

Sth to be fixed on the RxJS side: ReactiveX/rxjs#1089

Wouldn't this problem be fixed if you told the webpack config not to ignore node_modules/angular2 and if you turned on sourcemaps on the tsconfig.json for development (and also told it not to exclude all of node_modules as is the case right now)?

Then you'd get sourcemaps for the development setup, and for the production setup you could just use the same sources but turn off sourcemaps.

Hello, I was wondering if there is yet a way to shrink the vendor.bundle.js size? I added

        preLoaders: [{
            test: /\.js$/,
            loader: 'source-map-loader'
        }],

to my webpack config and ran into the same problems referenced above, so it appears the RxJS support is still not ready. Is there anything I can do in the interim?

@johnwheeler I added the source-map-loader to correctly map the inline source maps provided by angular2 which cut the vendor size in half. The build time is slower because we have to deal with the inline source maps. I also have to exclude rxjs and angular2-material until their source maps are fixed. closing for now
