Control module bundle dividers about esbuild HOT 2 OPEN

If you want to get all source files that are referenced in the bundle, you can enable metafile and read the Object.keys(metafile.inputs) without using a regex. Or enable sourcemap and parse the mappings.

If your second purpose is to get 'compiled' contents in the bundle by slicing code between these comments, it is not always correct because esbuild may re-order contents in the same file during the scope hoisting process. Which is to say, sources in the same file may not finally become continuous contents in the bundle.

Thanks for the quick reply @hyrious
My purpose lies with extracting the compiled code.

Just so I can be sure that I understand your second paragraph...
Are you saying that given e.g. the following input files

fileA.js

var message = "Hello"
console.log(message)

fileB.js

var a = true
var b = false
if (a)
{
console.log("A is true")
}

you could end up with a bundle like this:

var message = "Hello"
var a = true

// fileA.js
console.log(message)

// fileB.js
var b = false
if (a)
{
console.log("A is true")
}

If this is correct (i.e. the principle, not the exact code example) then could you explain under what conditions this would happen?
If I've misunderstood could you illustrate what you mean with a code example?

Thanks again.
