## Removing unused languages from dynamic import
|
||
|
|
||
|
If locale is required dynamically all languages in the date-fns are loaded by webpack into bundle (~160kb) or split across the chunks. This prolongs the build process and increases the amount of space taken. However, it is possible to use webpack to trim down languages using [ContextReplacementPlugin].
|
||
|
|
||
|
Let's assume that we have a single point in which supported locales are present:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`config.js`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
export const supportedLocales = ['en', 'de', 'pl', 'it']
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
We could also have a function that formats the date:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
const getLocale = locale => require(`date-fns/locale/${locale}/index.js`)
|
||
|
|
||
|
const formatDate = (date, formatStyle, locale) => {
|
||
|
return format(date, formatStyle, {
|
||
|
locale: getLocale(locale)
|
||
|
})
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
In order to exclude unused languages we can use webpacks [ContextReplacementPlugin].
|
||
|
|
||
|
`webpack.config.js`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
import webpack from 'webpack'
|
||
|
import { supportedLocales } from './config.js'
|
||
|
|
||
|
export default const config = {
|
||
|
plugins: [
|
||
|
new webpack.ContextReplacementPlugin(
|
||
|
/date\-fns[\/\\]/,
|
||
|
new RegExp(`[/\\\\\](${supportedLocales.join('|')})[/\\\\\]`)
|
||
|
)
|
||
|
]
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
This results in a language bundle of ~23kb .
