rollup-plugin-re

library1.0.7jsnpmunverified

A Rollup plugin for content transformation using regex patterns, string replacements, define macros, and custom transforms. Version 1.0.7 is the latest stable release, but the package appears unmaintained since 2018. It allows multiple replace patterns, include/exclude filters, and supports replacing by regex, string, file content, or custom transform function. Differentiates from @rollup/plugin-replace by offering pattern-based and macro-based replacements alongside simple string replacements.

Verified usage

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

replace

✓ import replace from 'rollup-plugin-re'

✗ import { replace } from 'rollup-plugin-re'

This package uses a default export. Named import will be undefined.

replace

✓ const replace = require('rollup-plugin-re').default

✗ const replace = require('rollup-plugin-re')

In CommonJS, require returns the module exports object; default export is at .default.

types

✓ import type { RollupPluginReOptions } from 'rollup-plugin-re'

TypeScript types are included in the package. You can import the options interface for type safety.

Basic Rollup setup using rollup-plugin-re for define macros, string replacements, and regex-based replacements.

import { rollup } from 'rollup'; import replace from 'rollup-plugin-re'; rollup({ input: 'src/main.js', plugins: [ replace({ include: '**/*.js', excludes: 'node_modules/**', defines: { DEBUG: false, }, replaces: { __VERSION__: '1.0.0', }, patterns: [ { test: /process\.env\.NODE_ENV/, replace: '"production"', }, ], }), ], output: { file: 'bundle.js', format: 'cjs', }, }).then(() => console.log('done'));

Debug

Known issues

deprecatedPackage is no longer maintained. Use @rollup/plugin-replace or modern alternatives.

fix

Migrate to @rollup/plugin-replace for simple string replacements, or use rollup-plugin-string-replace for regex support.

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchaThe 'excludes' option is misspelled as 'excludes' in code examples, but actually 'exclude' is correct.

fix

Use 'exclude' instead of 'excludes' in the plugin options object.

affects: >=0.0.0

gotchaPatterns with 'match' property are not applied correctly; 'match' is intended for internal file matching but may cause confusion.

fix

Avoid using 'match'; use 'include'/'exclude' for file filtering and 'test'/'replace' for content transformation.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe 'transform' function in a pattern must return a string; returning an object with 'code' and 'map' is not supported.

fix

Return only the transformed code string from transform functions.

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: replace is not a function

Using named import instead of default import.

fix

Use: import replace from 'rollup-plugin-re' (without curly braces).

Error: Cannot find module 'minimatch'

Missing dependency 'minimatch' (it is not a peer dependency but required at runtime).

fix

Run: npm install minimatch --save-dev

The 'excludes' option is not recognized. Did you mean 'exclude'?

Typo in option name: 'excludes' instead of 'exclude'.

fix

Change option name to 'exclude'.
