Process to clean up unused framework files

[alexkn1]

Hi,

I am trying to optimize the size of the app. Is there a built in process to only import kopytko modules that are being used or delete ones that are not being used during build process?

Thanks!

Hi @alexkn1

No, there is no such mechanism. There are plans for it, but it's a huge feature (e.g. determining which components have been used in the app is a non-obvious task).
You can create your plugin removing unneeded files.

Here is described how plugins work.
https://github.com/getndazn/kopytko-packager/blob/master/docs/PLUGINS.md

Example of the plugin code, that removes Roku roChannelStore mocks and TrackerTask.xml from the package build.

const fs = require('fs').promises;
const glob = require('glob-promise');

const RALE_TRACKER_PATH_PATTERN = '/components/**/TrackerTask.xml';
const ROKU_STORE_FAKES_DIR = '/csfake';

module.exports = async function removeDevelopmentCode(rootDir) {
  const raleTrackerPath = await glob(`${rootDir}${RALE_TRACKER_PATH_PATTERN}`);

  await Promise.all([...raleTrackerPath].map(filePath => fs.unlink(filePath)));

  await fs.rm(`${rootDir}${ROKU_STORE_FAKES_DIR}`, { recursive: true, force: true });
};

Yes, using something like that. That helps. Thought

Just to add if there was also a way to combine/minify all the common functions that would be good too. This is how all JS libraries work.

Thanks
