This plugin allows to rewrite bundle file names.

Why?

To get more control over bundle file names. You may find another useful plugin - https://github.com/ol-loginov/parcel-reporter-entries to get report about actual bundle file names.

Install and usage

Install the package first:

npm install --save-dev parcel-namer-rewrite

And edit .parcelrc file to add new namer (put it before or instead default one):

/* .parcelrc */
{
  "extends": "@parcel/config-default",
  "namers": [ "parcel-namer-rewrite" ]
}

Configuration

Plugin takes all config from package.json file. Example of config is below:

/* package.json */
{
  "name": "...",
  "version": "...",
  "description": "",
  "parcel-namer-rewrite": {
    /* This is optional, you may omit that line, and default namer will be used to get actual names */
    "chain": "@parcel/namer-default",
    /* You may select between always|never hashing. See below for details*/
    "hashing": "always",
    /* Turn plugin on and off */
    "disable": false,
    /* Rewrite rules */
    "rules": {
      "styles/(.*).css": "$1.{hash}.css",
      "scripts/TestMePlease.js": "Dunno.js"
    },
    /* profiles are optional */
    "profiles": {
      "development": {
        /* for development Node mode */
      },
      "production": {
        /* for production Node mode */
      },
      "other-custom-profile": {
        /* this profile is activated via environment variable */
      }
    }
  }
}

This example:

Rewrites all .css bundles in "styles" folder of distDir directly to distDir and adds hashes to names.
Moves "scripts/TestMePlease.js" to "Dunno.js"

How to write rules

"rules" is the object with rules: "key" is RegExp pattern to search in file names, "value" is replacement strings (you may use RegExp references here)

Using hash in file names

File name "$1.{hash}.css" adds hash before extension. If hash is empty (in development mode, for example), then you get double dot in file name:

"file.{hash}.css" -> "file..css"

But there is a solution - just put dot inside brackets. For example: "file{.hash}.css" or "file{hash.}.css". In this case for empty hash strings all inside brackets will be removed. And you may use any single character instead of dot: "file{~hash}.css", "file{-hash}.css" are valid replacements.

Hashing mode

In development mode hashes are blank for file names. You may force hashing in development mode by setting "hashing" to true in "development" profile.

Like this:

/* package.json */
{
  "parcel-namer-rewrite": {
    "rules": {
      /* some rules  */
    },
    "profiles": {
      "development": {
        "hashing": "always"
      }
    }
  }
}

You may turn off hashing completely (even for non-entry bundles) by selecting hashing to "never". You may set it on the main configuration or in profile configuration.

Any other (or absent) value for `hashing' will keep hash only for assets that are hashed by parcel itself.

Hide logs

This plugin will log every renamed file. To disable this feature, add this option to package.json :

/* package.json */
{
  "parcel-namer-rewrite": {
    // ...
    "silent": true
  }
}

Disable in development mode

You may want to disable the namer in development mode. To disable the plugin, add this option to package.json profile "development" :

/* package.json */
{
  "parcel-namer-rewrite": {
    // ...
    "profiles": {
      "development": {
        "disable": true
      }
    },
  }
}

Configuration profiles

You may want to override some configuration based on some condition - use configuration profile feature! "profiles" section in plugin configuration may contain additional configuration options that are activated based on profile key. By default, there are "development" and "production" profiles (you don't need to activate it via environment). These profiles are being activated by current Node mode - development or production.

In configuration below plugin is turned off for production mode:

/* package.json */
{
  "parcel-namer-rewrite": {
    "profiles": {
      "development": {
        /* for development Node mode */
      },
      "production": {
        /* for production Node mode */
        "disable": true
      },
    }
  }
}

To activate other profiles - use environment variable PARCEL_NAMER_REWRITE_PROFILE. Here you may see command line:

PARCEL_NAMER_REWRITE_PROFILE=myprofile parcel build

and corresponding configuration profile in package.json (it disables hashing completely)

/* package.json */
{
  "parcel-namer-rewrite": {
    "profiles": {
      "myprofile": {
        "hashing": "never"
      }
    }
  }
}

You may activate multiple profiles with comma-delimited list of profile keys

PARCEL_NAMER_REWRITE_PROFILE=myprofile,profile2,profile3 parcel build
