Examples

It removes all files & directories inside the build dir.

// rollup.config.js
import { clean } from '@open-tech-world/rollup-plugin-clean';

export default {
  entry: 'src/index.js',
  output: {
    file: 'build/index.js',
    format: 'esm'
  }
  plugins: [
    clean('build/*')
  ]
};

It removes the dist dir.

// rollup.config.js
import { clean } from '@open-tech-world/rollup-plugin-clean';

export default {
  entry: 'src/index.js',
  output: {
    file: 'dist/index.js',
    format: 'cjs'
  }
  plugins: [
    clean('dist')
  ]
};

It supports multiple patterns.

It cleans the build dir & ignores the logo.png file inside the assets dir.

// rollup.config.js
import { clean } from '@open-tech-world/rollup-plugin-clean';

export default {
  entry: 'src/index.js',
  output: {
    file: 'dist/index.js',
    format: 'cjs'
  }
  plugins: [
    clean(['build/*', '!**/assets/logo.png'])
  ]
};

It runs the plugin in the buildEnd Rollup Hook.

// rollup.config.js
import { clean } from '@open-tech-world/rollup-plugin-clean';

export default {
  entry: 'src/index.js',
  output: {
    file: 'dist/index.js',
    format: 'cjs'
  }
  plugins: [
    clean('build/*', { hook: 'buildEnd' })
  ]
};
