Command Line Interface

Rollup should typically be used from the command line. You can provide an optional Rollup configuration file to simplify command line usage and enable advanced Rollup functionality.

Configuration Files

Rollup configuration files are optional, but they are powerful and convenient and thus recommended.

A config file is an ES module that exports a default object with the desired options. Typically, it is called rollup.config.js and sits in the root directory of your project.

Also you can use CJS modules syntax for the config file.

module.exports = {
  input: 'src/main.js',
  output: {
    file: 'bundle.js',
    format: 'cjs'
  }
};

It may be pertinent if you want to use the config file not only from the command line, but also from your custom scripts programmatically.

Consult the big list of options for details on each option you can include in your config file.

// rollup.config.js

export default { // can be an array (for multiple inputs)
  // core input options
  external,
  input, // required
  plugins,

  // advanced input options
  cache,
  inlineDynamicImports,
  manualChunks,
  onwarn,
  preserveModules,
  strictDeprecations,

  // danger zone
  acorn,
  acornInjectPlugins,
  context,
  moduleContext,
  preserveSymlinks,
  shimMissingExports,
  treeshake,

  // experimental
  chunkGroupingSize,
  experimentalCacheExpiry,
  experimentalOptimizeChunks,
  experimentalTopLevelAwait,
  perf,

  output: { // required (can be an array, for multiple outputs)
    // core output options
    dir,
    file,
    format, // required
    globals,
    name,

    // advanced output options
    assetFileNames,
    banner,
    chunkFileNames,
    compact,
    entryFileNames,
    extend,
    footer,
    interop,
    intro,
    outro,
    paths,
    sourcemap,
    sourcemapExcludeSources,
    sourcemapFile,
    sourcemapPathTransform,

    // danger zone
    amd,
    dynamicImportFunction,
    esModule,
    exports,
    externalLiveBindings,
    freeze,
    indent,
    namespaceToStringTag,
    noConflict,
    preferConst,
    strict
  },

  watch: {
    chokidar,
    clearScreen,
    exclude,
    include
  }
};

You can export an array from your config file to build bundles from several different unrelated inputs at once, even in watch mode. To build different bundles with the same input, you supply an array of output options for each input:

// rollup.config.js (building more than one bundle)

export default [{
  input: 'main-a.js',
  output: {
    file: 'dist/bundle-a.js',
    format: 'cjs'
  }
}, {
  input: 'main-b.js',
  output: [
    {
      file: 'dist/bundle-b1.js',
      format: 'cjs'
    },
    {
      file: 'dist/bundle-b2.js',
      format: 'esm'
    }
  ]
}];

If you want to create your config asynchronously, Rollup can also handle a Promise which resolves to an object or an array.

// rollup.config.js
import fetch from 'node-fetch';
export default fetch('/some-remote-service-or-file-which-returns-actual-config');

Similarly, you can do this as well:

// rollup.config.js (Promise resolving an array)
export default Promise.all([
  fetch('get-config-1'),
  fetch('get-config-2')
])

You must use a configuration file in order to do any of the following:

bundle one project into multiple output files
use Rollup plugins, such as rollup-plugin-node-resolve and rollup-plugin-commonjs which let you load CommonJS modules from the Node.js ecosystem

To use Rollup with a configuration file, pass the --config or -c flags.

# use Rollup with a rollup.config.js file
$ rollup --config

# alternatively, specify a custom config file location
$ rollup --config my.config.js

You can also export a function that returns any of the above configuration formats. This function will be passed the current command line arguments so that you can dynamically adapt your configuration to respect e.g. --silent. You can even define your own command line options if you prefix them with config:

// rollup.config.js
import defaultConfig from './rollup.default.config.js';
import debugConfig from './rollup.debug.config.js';

export default commandLineArgs => {
  if (commandLineArgs.configDebug === true) {
    return debugConfig;
  }
  return defaultConfig;
}

If you now run rollup --config --configDebug, the debug configuration will be used.

Command line flags

Many options have command line equivalents. In those cases, any arguments passed here will override the config file, if you're using one. This is a list of all supported options:

-c, --config <filename>     Use this config file (if argument is used but value
                              is unspecified, defaults to rollup.config.js)
-d, --dir <dirname>         Directory for chunks (if absent, prints to stdout)
-e, --external <ids>        Comma-separate list of module IDs to exclude
-f, --format <format>       Type of output (amd, cjs, esm, iife, umd)
-g, --globals <pairs>       Comma-separate list of `moduleID:Global` pairs
-h, --help                  Show this help message
-i, --input <filename>      Input (alternative to <entry file>)
-m, --sourcemap             Generate sourcemap (`-m inline` for inline map)
-n, --name <name>           Name for UMD export
-o, --file <output>         Single output file (if absent, prints to stdout)
-v, --version               Show version number
-w, --watch                 Watch files in bundle and rebuild on changes
--amd.id <id>               ID for AMD module (default is anonymous)
--amd.define <name>         Function to use in place of `define`
--assetFileNames <pattern>  Name pattern for emitted assets
--banner <text>             Code to insert at top of bundle (outside wrapper)

--no-externalLiveBindings   Do not generate code to support live bindings
--footer <text>             Code to insert at end of bundle (outside wrapper)

--no-interop                Do not include interop block
--inlineDynamicImports      Create single bundle when using dynamic imports
--intro <text>              Code to insert at top of bundle (inside wrapper)
--namespaceToStringTag      Create proper `.toString` methods for namespaces
--noConflict                Generate a noConflict method for UMD globals
--no-strict                 Don't emit `"use strict";` in the generated modules
--outro <text>              Code to insert at end of bundle (inside wrapper)

--no-treeshake.propertyReadSideEffects Ignore property access side-effects
--treeshake.pureExternalModules        Assume side-effect free externals

The flags listed below are only available via the command line interface. All other flags correspond to and override their config file equivalents, see the big list of options for details.

`-h`/`--help`

Print the help document.

`-v`/`--version`

Print the installed version number.

`-w`/`--watch`

Rebuild the bundle when its source files change on disk.

Note: While in watch mode, the ROLLUP_WATCH environment variable will be set to "true" by Rollup's command line interface and can be checked by plugins and other processes.

`--silent`

Don't print warnings to the console. If your configuration file contains an onwarn handler, this handler will still be called. To manually prevent that, you can access the command line options in your configuration file as described at the end of Configuration Files.

`--environment <values>`

Pass additional settings to the config file via process.ENV.

rollup -c --environment INCLUDE_DEPS,BUILD:production

will set process.env.INCLUDE_DEPS === 'true' and process.env.BUILD === 'production'. You can use this option several times. In that case, subsequently set variables will overwrite previous definitions. This enables you for instance to overwrite environment variables in package.json scripts:

// in package.json
{
  "scripts": {
    "build": "rollup -c --environment INCLUDE_DEPS,BUILD:production"
  }
}

If you call this script via:

npm run build -- --environment BUILD:development

then the config file will receive process.env.INCLUDE_DEPS === 'true' and process.env.BUILD === 'development'.
