How to renormalize sources in sourcemaps when building #822

Open CxRes opened 7 years ago

CxRes commented 7 years ago

This is probably a support request but it may be a feature request

I have a program structure like this:

project
|-- package.json
|-- src
     |-- config.js
     |-- jspm_packages
     |-- bootstrap.js

I am doing a build like this:

builder.bundle('bootstrap.js', 'des/output.js', { minify:true, sourceMaps:true })

All the sources in the generated sourceMap start as ..\src\*. I would like to normalize these paths to get rid of ..\src portion, because des/ becomes its own independent package for distribution (I copy package.json and modify main; this is in a nwjs env). For example, Uglify offers the base option for sourceMaps. I cannot see an equivalent option here (I have tinkered with baseURL to no avail)??

Maybe try building the application within the baseURL itself?

The trouble with that is (it was the first idea I had as well) that I cannot replace bootstrap.js with itself. If I use another name, then I have to rewrite my index.html to modifying the script tag to point to this new name. Right now I can copy the index.html from src to des. If I rename and copy this file instead, the reference in the map file has a different name, which means I have to rewrite that then Also, it just feels wrong to build files in the src folder...
