Distributor is a lightweight bundler that helps to build your project with minimal configuration required. The module is capable of:
- streaming source files into single merged while preserving relative order
- enqueue bundler jobs and watch for source files change
- compile TypeScript files and install TypeScript for the project
As of version 1.4.0, the package will merge identical requires of CommonJS modules and move them to the top of the dist file. Currently, only single-line requires are supported, but there are no restrictions of assignment type (var, let, const), object destructuring and partial imports.
Distributor module comes with a complete highly configurable CLI. Options avaiable in latest (1.4.3) version of the module are:
