This plugin usesJSON.stringify() to minify your JSON files during the build process.

Getting Started

To begin, you'll need to installjson-minimizer-webpack-plugin:

npm install json-minimizer-webpack-plugin --save-dev

or

yarn add -D json-minimizer-webpack-plugin

or

pnpm add -D json-minimizer-webpack-plugin

Then add the plugin to yourwebpack configuration. For example:

webpack.config.js

const CopyPlugin=require("copy-webpack-plugin");const JsonMinimizerPlugin=require("json-minimizer-webpack-plugin");module.exports={  module:{    rules:[{        test:/\.json$/i,        type:"asset/resource",},],},  plugins:[newCopyPlugin({      patterns:[{          context: path.resolve(__dirname,"dist"),from:"./src/*.json",},],}),],  optimization:{    minimize:true,    minimizer:[// For webpack@5 you can use the `...` syntax to extend existing minimizers (i.e. `terser-webpack-plugin`), uncomment the next line// `...`newJsonMinimizerPlugin(),],},};

Finally, runwebpack using the method you normally use (e.g., via CLI or an npm script).
