I'm having trouble figuring how date-fns v.2 tree-shaking feature works...
To help me with it, I've made a really simple project using:
date-fns 2.1.0
webpack 4.39.3
typescript 3.6.2
the test contains 2 files, one acting as the "library", the other acting as the code to run, and it is as simple as...
import ParseDate from './parse-date'
const parse = new ParseDate();
const result = parse.getExpirationDate({ months: 3 });
console.log(result);
but the issue is, though I'm only asking to work with 6 libraries using the tree-shaking use
import { addYears, addMonths, addWeeks, addDays, addHours, addMinutes } from 'date-fns';
from their docs:
// Without tree-shaking:
import format from 'date-fns/format'
import parse from 'date-fns/parse'
// With tree-shaking:
import { format, parse } from 'date-fns'
webpack is bundling the entire date-fns library, being the result of the 2 files, 726Kb !!

What am I missing? ...must be a simple thing but I've run out of ideas :(
The project can be found on GitHub for easy review (and git pull) :)
To make tree-shaking work you have to configure TypeScript to compile to ES Modules instead of CommonJS and also enable production mode in webpack:
tsconfig.json
set module: 'es2015'
webpack.config.js
set mode: 'production'
With this setup you'll have just 1Kb build:
$ size-limit dist/bundle.js
Package size: 724 B
With all dependencies, minified and gzipped
