Copy uncompilable files (such as .proto) into dist library with bundleless

[FredrikAugust]

Hello! We're currently migrating from SWC to RSLib and were wondering if there were anyway to enable the SWC CLI option --copy-files? Or alternatively any other way to just copy the files over while not compiling them.

What bundle mode do you use?

[Timeless0911]

You can use output.copy

[FredrikAugust]

@Timeless0911 Ah, sorry, I forgot to add that we have bundle: false in the two objects as well. I removed it as a workaround.

[Timeless0911]

Does files you want to copy directly now being bundled into the output?

[Timeless0911]

Oh, in bundleless mode, you can:

1. Set source.entry to remove files from the entry.
2. Set output.copy to copy files to the output directory.
   eg. https://lib.rsbuild.dev/guide/faq/features#how-to-skip-the-preprocessing-of-less--sass-files-in-bundleless-mode

Sorry, I'll attempt to formulate my question a little better.

We don't want to bundle the app. We just want to copy the src/ folder with typescript (being transpiled) and other files (just being copied verbatim).

Thanks @Timeless0911! Worked like a charm!
