[dependabot]

Bumps esbuild from 0.15.12 to 0.17.11.

Release notes

Sourced from esbuild's releases.

v0.17.11

• Fix the alias feature to always prefer the longest match (#2963)

  It's possible to configure conflicting aliases such as --alias:a=b and --alias:a/c=d, which is ambiguous for the import path a/c/x (since it could map to either b/c/x or d/x). Previously esbuild would pick the first matching alias, which would non-deterministically pick between one of the possible matches. This release fixes esbuild to always deterministically pick the longest possible match.

• Minify calls to some global primitive constructors (#2962)

  With this release, esbuild's minifier now replaces calls to Boolean/Number/String/BigInt with equivalent shorter code when relevant:

  // Original code
  console.log(
    Boolean(a ? (b | c) !== 0 : (c & d) !== 0),
    Number(e ? '1' : '2'),
    String(e ? '1' : '2'),
    BigInt(e ? 1n : 2n),
  )
  // Old output (with --minify)
  console.log(Boolean(a?(b|c)!==0:(c&d)!==0),Number(e?"1":"2"),String(e?"1":"2"),BigInt(e?1n:2n));
  // New output (with --minify)
  console.log(!!(a?b|c:c&d),+(e?"1":"2"),e?"1":"2",e?1n:2n);

• Adjust some feature compatibility tables for node (#2940)

  This release makes the following adjustments to esbuild's internal feature compatibility tables for node, which tell esbuild which versions of node are known to support all aspects of that feature:

  • class-private-brand-checks: node v16.9+ => node v16.4+ (a decrease)
  • hashbang: node v12.0+ => node v12.5+ (an increase)
  • optional-chain: node v16.9+ => node v16.1+ (a decrease)
  • template-literal: node v4+ => node v10+ (an increase)

  Each of these adjustments was identified by comparing against data from the node-compat-table package and was manually verified using old node executables downloaded from https://nodejs.org/download/release/.

v0.17.10

• Update esbuild's handling of CSS nesting to match the latest specification changes (#1945)

  The syntax for the upcoming CSS nesting feature has recently changed. The @nest prefix that was previously required in some cases is now gone, and nested rules no longer have to start with & (as long as they don't start with an identifier or function token).

  This release updates esbuild's pass-through handling of CSS nesting syntax to match the latest specification changes. So you can now use esbuild to bundle CSS containing nested rules and try them out in a browser that supports CSS nesting (which includes nightly builds of both Chrome and Safari).

  However, I'm not implementing lowering of nested CSS to non-nested CSS for older browsers yet. While the syntax has been decided, the semantics are still in flux. In particular, there is still some debate about changing the fundamental way that CSS nesting works. For example, you might think that the following CSS is equivalent to a .outer .inner button { ... } rule:

  .inner button {
    .outer & {
      color: red;
    }

Changelog: 2022

This changelog documents all esbuild versions published in the year 2022 (versions 0.14.11 through 0.16.12).

0.16.12

• Loader defaults to js for extensionless files (#2776)

  Certain packages contain files without an extension. For example, the yargs package contains the file yargs/yargs which has no extension. Node, Webpack, and Parcel can all understand code that imports yargs/yargs because they assume that the file is JavaScript. However, esbuild was previously unable to understand this code because it relies on the file extension to tell it how to interpret the file. With this release, esbuild will now assume files without an extension are JavaScript files. This can be customized by setting the loader for "" (the empty string, representing files without an extension) to another loader. For example, if you want files without an extension to be treated as CSS instead, you can do that like this:

  • CLI:

    esbuild --bundle --loader:=css
    

  • JS:

    esbuild.build({
      bundle: true,
      loader: { '': 'css' },
    })

  • Go:

    api.Build(api.BuildOptions{
      Bundle: true,
      Loader: map[string]api.Loader{"": api.LoaderCSS},
    })

  In addition, the "type" field in package.json files now only applies to files with an explicit .js, .jsx, .ts, or .tsx extension. Previously it was incorrectly applied by esbuild to all files that had an extension other than .mjs, .mts, .cjs, or .cts including extensionless files. So for example an extensionless file in a "type": "module" package is now treated as CommonJS instead of ESM.

0.16.11

• Avoid a syntax error in the presence of direct eval (#2761)

  The behavior of nested function declarations in JavaScript depends on whether the code is run in strict mode or not. It would be problematic if esbuild preserved nested function declarations in its output because then the behavior would depend on whether the output was run in strict mode or not instead of respecting the strict mode behavior of the original source code. To avoid this, esbuild transforms nested function declarations to preserve the intended behavior of the original source code regardless of whether the output is run in strict mode or not:

  // Original code
  if (true) {
    function foo() {}
    console.log(!!foo)
    foo = null
    console.log(!!foo)
  }
