How do I disable minification when running "build" command in sveltekit?

Question

I am deploying sveltekit to a dfinity container and I need to disable minification to debug.

I have to build a static version to deploy it with npm run build -- is there a vite option to disable minification?

I've tried this: svelte.config.js but it doesn't do anything:

vite: {
    resolve: {
        alias: {
            $components: path.resolve('./src/components'),
            $stores: path.resolve('./src/stores'),
            $api: path.resolve('./src/api')
        }
    },
    build: {
        minify: false
    }
}

I cannot reproduce the issue. vite.build.minify=false does actually disable minification in a newly scaffolded SvelteKit project. Can you share a link to a reproduction of the problem? – Tailpipe

that works. it still compiled it but did not minify. so we're good. – Photocopy

Use vite.config.js/ts instead, and set the build.minify option:

import { sveltekit } from '@sveltejs/kit/vite';
import { defineConfig } from 'vite';

export default defineConfig({
    plugins: [sveltekit()],
    build: {
        minify: false
    }
});
