Synopsis

renameify is a browserify transform for replacing variable, function and property names.

This library uses browserify-transform-tools, so you can also supply the configuration by adding a renameify field to your project's package.json file.

Install

Node.js

With NPM

npm install renameify

From source

git clone https://github.com/pluma/renameify.git
cd renameify
npm install
make test

Basic usage example

Source

var someVariableName = 20;
console.log(someVariableName);

Result

var newVariableName = 20;
console.log(newVariableName);

Usage

var browserify = require('browserify'),
    renameify = require('renameify'),
    b = browserify();

b.transform(renameify.configure({
    variables: {'someVariableName': 'newVariableName'}
}));
b.add('./app.js');
b.bundle().pipe(require('fs').createWriteStream('bundle.js'));

Usage example with package.json

package.json

{
    "name": "my-awesome-project",
    "devDependencies": {
        "browserify": "*",
        "renameify": "*"
    },
    "renameify": {
        "variables": {"someVariableName": "newVariableName"}
    }
}

Usage (API)

var browserify = require('browserify'),
    renameify = require('renameify'),
    b = browserify();

b.transform(renameify);
b.add('./app.js');
b.bundle().pipe(require('fs').createWriteStream('bundle.js'));
