resource-bundler

library0.0.8jsnpmunverified

A simple asset bundler for Express applications, inspired by the .NET MVC 4 bundler. It combines multiple CSS or JavaScript files into single bundles with optional minification via custom transformers. Version 0.0.8 is the latest, with low release cadence (no recent updates). Key differentiators: lightweight, Express integration, extensible via custom transformers. Not actively maintained; may have compatibility issues with modern Node.js.

Verified usage

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

bundler

✓ import bundler from 'resource-bundler'

✗ const bundler = require('resource-bundler')

Default export; commonjs require works but ESM recommended.

Bundle

✓ import { Bundle } from 'resource-bundler'

✗ const { Bundle } = require('resource-bundler')

Named export for Bundle class.

StyleBundle

✓ import { StyleBundle } from 'resource-bundler'

✗ const StyleBundle = require('resource-bundler').StyleBundle

Named export for CSS bundles.

This shows how to set up Express with resource-bundler, create style and script bundles, and serve them on a route.

import express from 'express'; import bundler from 'resource-bundler'; import { StyleBundle, ScriptBundle } from 'resource-bundler'; const app = express(); const bundle = bundler(app, { production: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production' }); bundle.add(new StyleBundle('css') .withFiles('public/css/reset.css', 'public/css/main.css')); bundle.add(new ScriptBundle('js') .withFiles('public/js/lib/jquery.js', 'public/js/app.js')); app.get('/', (req, res) => { res.send(` <link href="${bundle.resolve('css')}" rel="stylesheet"> <script src="${bundle.resolve('js')}"></script> `); }); app.listen(3000);

Debug

Known issues

breakingThe package is unmaintained and may not work with Node.js >= 12.

fix

Consider alternatives like webpack or parcel.

affects: >=0.0.8

gotchaBundles are resolved relative to the public directory; incorrect paths may cause 404s.

fix

Ensure file paths are correct and accessible via static middleware.

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchaNo built-in minification; transformers must be added manually.

fix

Use custom transformers with uglify-js or clean-css.

affects: >=0.0.0
