Mode

  • Type: 'production' | 'development' | 'none'
  • Default:'production'

The mode configuration is used to set the build mode of Rspack to enable the default optimization strategy.

Usage

You can set the mode directly in rspack.config.js:

rspack.config.js
module.exports = {
  mode: 'production',
};

In actual scenarios, you can dynamically set the mode according to process.env.NODE_ENV:

rspack.config.js
const isProduction = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production';

module.exports = {
  mode: isProduction ? 'production' : 'development',
};

Alternatively, you can set the mode using the --mode option on the Rspack CLI:

rspack --mode=production
INFO

--mode option on the CLI has a higher priority than mode in rspack.config.js.

Optional Values

mode has the following optional values:

production

In production mode, Rspack automatically enables the following optimization strategies:

  • Replace process.env.NODE_ENV in code with 'production'.
  • Set the default value of optimization.minimize to true to enable SWC minification.

development

In development mode, Rspack automatically enables the following optimization strategies:

  • Replace process.env.NODE_ENV in code with 'development'.
  • Set proper naming format for modules and chunks.

none

When mode is set to 'none', Rspack will not enable any default optimization strategies.
