Describe the issue
I can't make tree shaking working using Bootstrap. If I try something like
import { Button } from 'bootstrap'
I get the whole library included in my bundle.
Reduced test cases
The Rollup.js configuration I'm using is the following:
// rollup.config.js
import { babel } from '@rollup/plugin-babel'
import scss from 'rollup-plugin-scss'
import uglify from '@lopatnov/rollup-plugin-uglify'
import nodeResolve from '@rollup/plugin-node-resolve'
import commonjs from '@rollup/plugin-commonjs'
import injectProcessEnv from 'rollup-plugin-inject-process-env'
export default [
{
input: 'demo.entry.js',
output: {
file: 'dist/js/demo.bundle.min.js',
format: 'iife',
compact: true
},
plugins: [
babel({
babelHelpers: 'bundled',
exclude: 'node_modules/**',
}),
scss({
output: 'dist/css/demo.min.css',
outputStyle: 'compressed',
sourceMap: true,
}),
nodeResolve(),
commonjs(),
injectProcessEnv({
NODE_ENV: 'production',
}),
uglify()
],
}
]

Research direction
Start with the reported rollup.config.js and demo.entry.js, then reproduce the Bootstrap v5.1.3 build using the listed Rollup plugins. Inspect the generated bundle to confirm whether importing Button includes the whole library. Done means the reduced example produces a bundle containing only the required Bootstrap code, with the existing build configuration or a documented limitation clarified.
