mini-unassert (original) (raw)

mini-unassert

a small and fast unassert transform

It transforms assert calls to void expressions. Use a minifier like terser to completely remove them.

Input:

var assert = require('assert')

assert(true)

assert.equal(typeof x, 'string')

assert(sideEffectCall())

assert.throws(function () {})

Output:

;

void (true)

void (typeof x, 'string')

void (sideEffectCall())

void (function () {})

After minification:

npm install mini-unassert

It works as a stream and as a browserify transform.

var unassert = require('mini-unassert')

fs.createReadStream('file.js')

.pipe(unassert({ modules: ['assert', 'power-assert', 'nanoassert'] }))

.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('file.unassert.js'))

browserify -g mini-unassert -g uglifyify

Create a stream that replaces assert calls with void expressions.

opts.modules is an array of assertion module names, defaulting to ['assert'].

Add unassert as a browserify transform. b is an instance of browserify.

Set opts.global to run it on all files, including dependencies in node_modules. (recommended)
