# lodash-webpack-plugin

Create smaller Lodash builds by replacing [feature sets](#feature-sets) of modules
with [noop](https://lodash.com/docs#noop), [identity](https://lodash.com/docs#identity),
or simpler alternatives.

This plugin complements [babel-plugin-lodash](https://www.npmjs.com/package/babel-plugin-lodash)
by shrinking its cherry-picked builds even further!

DISCLAIMER: Using this plugin without enabling the proper feature sets may cause lodash functions to behave in unexpected ways. Methods may appear to work, however they might return incorrect results.

## Install

```shell
$ npm i --save lodash
$ npm i --save-dev lodash-webpack-plugin babel-core babel-loader babel-plugin-lodash babel-preset-env webpack
```

## Example

## Usage

###### webpack.config.js
```js
var LodashModuleReplacementPlugin = require('lodash-webpack-plugin');
var webpack = require('webpack');

module.exports = {
  'module': {
    'rules': [{
      'use': 'babel-loader',
      'test': /\.js$/,
      'exclude': /node_modules/,
      'options': {
        'plugins': ['lodash'],
        'presets': [['env', { 'modules': false, 'targets': { 'node': 4 } }]]
      }
    }]
  },
  'plugins': [
    new LodashModuleReplacementPlugin,
    new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin
  ]
};
```

Opt-in to features with an options object:
```js
new LodashModuleReplacementPlugin({
  'collections': true,
  'paths': true
});
```
