Using Terser I can not get the desired results.
I am trying to minify the testing code below and the function names do not get minified whatever I try.
The variable names stay the same too, only within local functions that have parameters, they get changed.
I have set toplevel
to true
and tried about every option I can think off.
The deadcode in neverBeCalled
does not go away either.
Using Terser v4.3.4 and have no problem using another minifier if that would do the trick.
My config:
var options = {
warnings: "verbose",
keep_fnames: false,
mangle: {
toplevel: true,
},
compress: {
passes: 20,
dead_code: true,
sequences: false,
conditionals: false,
drop_console: true,
},
output: {
ecma: 6,
semicolons: false
}
};
The testing source file:
init = function(){
test="testing";
bla = "blabla"
shameVar=903
}
update = function(){
test+="test"
test+="123"
x=10;
bla=bla+"x"
tester = myFuncWithLongName(23,24);
shameVar=shameVar-1;
}
myfuncWithLongName = function(eat,sleep){
resting=sleep+shameVar;
some = eat+resting;
return some;
}
neverBeCalled = function(){
thisdoesnot=0;
return thisdoesnot;
}
The result
init=function(){test="testing"
bla="blabla"
shameVar=903}
update=function(){test+="test"
test+="123"
x=10
bla+="x"
tester=myFuncWithLongName(23,24)
shameVar-=1}
myfuncWithLongName=function(t,e){resting=e+shameVar
some=t+resting
return some}
neverBeCalled=function(){thisdoesnot=0
return thisdoesnot}
This is not possible because without adding var
the variables are global and Terser does not mangle them..
