does DCE work with the new 1.3.41 Webpack multiplatform setup?

[Casey Brooks]

@Roman Artemev [JB] is there documentation on how to get it set up properly? I’m not seeing any options in their gradle plugins, and just adding the kotlin-dce-js plugin doesn’t seem to run correctly. I get the un-bundled and un-minified JS source modules from my code and its dependent libraries in build/kotlin-js-min/, and the webpack bundle in build/libs/ is not minified either (is about 2mb still for a simple “Hello World”). Same results whether I use the kotlin("js") or kotlin("multiplatform") gradle plugins

AFAIK it’s not for now. Could you please run task runDceKotlinJs gradle task. Does dce produce anything?

[Casey Brooks]

assemble without runDceJsKotlin

[Casey Brooks]

assemble with runDceJsKotlin

[Casey Brooks]

So that task is running and doing something, and it is somehow connected to the multiplatform sourcesets, but it doesn’t seem to actually be removing dead code

[Roman Artemev [JB]]

it doesn’t seem to actually be removing dead code

So size of files in kotlin-js-min directory hasn’t changed?

[Roman Artemev [JB]]

It’s seems like a bug somewhere between DCE and k/js gradle plugins I think

Here’s the project I’m working with https://github.com/JavaEden/Orchid/tree/features/kotlin-js-widgets/plugins/OrchidSearch/widget. The JS module is :plugins:OrchidSearch:widget

Let me take a look

[Casey Brooks]

thank you!

[Roman Artemev [JB]]

As it turned out kotlin/js plugin does not support integration between dce and webpack yet. There is an issue about https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-32323, but I am not sure that work will be done by 1.3.50. I apologise for confusion.

[Casey Brooks]

Good to know, thanks for checking that for me!
