Avoid minify in react-native in release mode

Question

I'm Generating the release APK for Android and want to test it without minifying the code.

How can I generate a release version for Android or iOS without minify the code?

Thanks.

Have you checked app/build.gradle file for buildTypes? – Diagenesis

I checked but seems nothing related with React-native bundle – Counterweight

Answer 1

If you are using the default react-native cli you just need to use --minify false.

e.g.

node node_modules/react-native/local-cli/cli.js bundle --entry-file index.js --platform ios  --minify false --dev false --reset-cache --bundle-output './ios/MobileTravelAdvisor/main.jsbundle' --assets-dest './ios'

Haul to the rescue,

Finally I found a solution, it seems that using Haul to generate the bundle is possible with the flag --minify false, use it with the command haul bundle

It's not possible to disable minification in production bundle. – Munger
