spfx-gulpfile-hack

This is a project designed to supplement my blog post at https://pdemro.com/improve-sharepoint-framework-build-times-by-hacking-gulp-and-webpack/. The idea is to reduce build times for large SpFx projects which have many components during development of a single component (e.g. individual web part or extension).

Building the code

git clone the repo
npm i
npm i -g gulp
gulp serve --nobrowser (or gulp bundle)

next,

  • uncomment lines 7-13 in gulpfile.js
  • copy the contents of config/config.minimal.json into config/config.json
  • comment hard-coded exception lines 112-115 ("Do not use mergeConfig with gulp-core-build-typescript") in node_modules/@microsoft/gulp-core-build-typescript/lib/TypeScriptTask.js

Finally:

gulp serve --nobrowser

Much more explanation in the blog post.

Default Stuff

This package produces the following:

  • lib/* - intermediate-stage commonjs build artifacts
  • dist/* - the bundled script, along with other resources
  • deploy/* - all resources which should be uploaded to a CDN.

Build options

gulp clean - TODO gulp test - TODO gulp serve - TODO gulp bundle - TODO gulp package-solution - TODO
