compressed-size-action

A GitHub action that reports changes in compressed file sizes on your PRs.

Usage:

Add a workflow (.github/workflows/main.yml):

name: Compressed Size

on: [pull_request]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - uses: preactjs/compressed-size-action@v2

Customizing the Installation

By default, compressed-size-action will install dependencies according to which lockfiles are present, if any. However, if you need to run a different installation command, you can pass a custom script to do so. For example, to use npm ci with the --workspace option:

name: Compressed Size

on: [pull_request]

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - uses: preactjs/compressed-size-action@v2
      with:
+       install-script: "npm ci --workspace=packages/my-subpackage"

Customizing the Build

By default, compressed-size-action will try to build your PR by running the "build" npm script in your package.json.

If you need to perform some tasks after dependencies are installed but before building, you can use a "postinstall" npm script to do so. For example, in Lerna-based monorepo:

{
  "scripts": {
    "postinstall": "lerna bootstrap",
    "build": "lerna run build"
  }
}

It is also possible to define a "prebuild" npm script, which runs after "postinstall" but before "build".

You can also specify a completely different npm script to run instead of the default ("build"). To do this, add a build-script option to your yml workflow:

name: Compressed Size

on: [pull_request]

jobs:
  build:

    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - uses: preactjs/compressed-size-action@v2
      with:
+       build-script: "ci"

Clean up state between builds

For repositories or custom monorepo setups where files are modified in ways that are not reset by npm ci && npm run build, it may be necessary to define a custom "clean" script. This script resets any file modifications after the upstream (target) build ends and your PR code (HEAD) is checked out, but before installation of npm dependencies for HEAD:

name: Compressed Size
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - uses: preactjs/compressed-size-action@v2
      with:
        repo-token: "${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}"
+       clean-script: "clean"
// package.json
{
  "scripts": {
    // example - a simple nested node_modules setup:
    "postinstall": "cd packages && npm i",
    // between the two builds, we need to delete the inner node_modules:
    "clean": "rm -rf packages/node_modules"
  }
}

Customizing the list of files

compressed-size-action defaults to tracking the size of all JavaScript files within dist/ directories - anywhere in your repository, not just at the root. You can change the list of files to be tracked and reported using the pattern and exclude options, both of which are minimatch patterns:

name: Compressed Size
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - uses: preactjs/compressed-size-action@v2
      with:
+       pattern: "./build-output/**/*.{js,css,html,json}"
+       exclude: "{./build-output/manifest.json,**/*.map,**/node_modules/**}"

Files are collected by finding matches for pattern, then any of those that match exclude are ignored. For that reason, most projects don't need to modify exclude. The default values for pattern and exclude are as follows:

with:
  # Any JS files anywhere within a dist directory:
  pattern: "**/dist/**/*.js"

  # Always ignore SourceMaps and node_modules:
  exclude: "{**/*.map,**/node_modules/**}"

Dealing with hashed filenames

A strip-hash option was added in v2 that allows passing a custom Regular Expression pattern that will be used to remove hashes from filenames. The un-hashed filenames are used both for size comparison and display purposes.

By default, the characters matched by the regex are removed from filenames. In the example below, a filename foo.abcde.js will be converted to foo.js:

strip-hash: "\\b\\w{5}\\."

This can be customized further using parens to create submatches, which mark where a hash occurs. When a submatch is detected, it will be replaced with asterisks. This is particularly useful when mix of hashed and unhashed filenames are present. In the example below, a filename foo.abcde.chunk.js will be converted to foo.*****.chunk.js:

strip-hash: "\\.(\\w{5})\\.chunk\\.js$"

Increasing the required threshold

By default, a file that's been changed by a single byte will be reported as changed. If you'd prefer to require a certain minimum threshold for a file to be changed, you can specify minimum-change-threshold in bytes:

minimum-change-threshold: 100

In the above example, a file with a delta of less than 100 bytes will be reported as unchanged.

Compression

By default, files are compared after gzip compression, but it's possible to use other compression algorithms (gzip/brotli/none) or disable the compression.

compression: "none"

Checking multiple bundles

The action reuses the same comment each time it runs on a PR. In order to run the action multiple times against separate bundles for a single PR, you must provide a comment-key option, which the action will use to determine which comment to add or update for the run. The example below demonstrates this for separate "modern" and "legacy" bundles:

name: Compressed Size
on: [pull_request]
jobs:
  modern-bundle-size-check:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - uses: preactjs/compressed-size-action@v2
      with:
        build-script: "build:modern"
+       comment-key: modern

  legacy-bundle-size-check:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - uses: preactjs/compressed-size-action@v2
      with:
        build-script: "build:legacy"
+       comment-key: legacy

If you do not provide this key, the action will attempt to use (and therefore replace) the same comment for both bundles, hiding the output for whichever run finished last.
