babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments

library1.0.0jsnpmunverified

Babel plugin that removes GLSL comments (single-line // and block /* */) from shader source strings at build time. Current stable version: 1.0.0. Infrequently updated. Differentiators: designed specifically for GLSL within JavaScript, integrates with Babel pipeline, avoids runtime comment stripping. Alternative to manual regex or build-step scripts.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default

✓ import removeGlslComments from 'babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments'

✗ const { default } = require('babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments')

This is a Babel plugin; import the default export to use in .babelrc or babel.config.js as a plugin string.

removeGlslComments

✓ const removeGlslComments = require('babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments').default

✗ const removeGlslComments = require('babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments')

CommonJS users must access .default because the module exports an ES module default.

babel plugin usage

✓ "plugins": ["remove-glsl-comments"]

✗ "plugins": ["babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments"]

When using string shorthand in Babel config, omit the 'babel-plugin-' prefix; Babel resolves it automatically.

Shows how to configure the Babel plugin in babel.config.js and the expected transformation on a GLSL string.

// babel.config.js module.exports = { plugins: [ ['module:remove-glsl-comments', { /* options */ }], ], }; // sample.js (transformed) const vertexShader = ` // vertex shader attribute vec3 position; // position attribute void main() { gl_Position = vec4(position, 1.0); } `; // After plugin: comments removed, GLSL preserved

Known issues

breakingPlugin is not designed to handle complex GLSL preprocessor directives or nested comments (GLSL spec does not allow nested blocks).

fix

Ensure GLSL code does not contain nested block comments; remove them manually.

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedPackage may be deprecated in favor of using @luma.gl/shadertools or inline build tool plugins.

fix

Consider migrating to luma.gl's shader module system if using WebGL.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaPlugin only removes comments from GLSL strings, not from arbitrary JavaScript code. It must be applied to files containing GLSL template literals.

fix

Ensure the plugin is included in the Babel config for files that contain GLSL strings.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Error: Cannot find module 'babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments'

Package not installed or misspelled in config.

fix

Run 'npm install babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments --save-dev' and verify package.json.

TypeError: (intermediate value) is not a function

Using require() without .default in CommonJS.

fix

Replace 'const plugin = require('babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments')' with 'const plugin = require('babel-plugin-remove-glsl-comments').default'.

Error: Babel plugin 'remove-glsl-comments' specified in "plugins" but not found.

Incorrect plugin specifier in Babel config.

fix

Ensure the package is installed and use the full module path: 'module:remove-glsl-comments' or the shorthand 'remove-glsl-comments'.
