- Added MODULE_WRAPPER_SHORTHAND_PREFIX and MODULE_WRAPPER_SHORTHAND_SUFFIX constants - Added isMethodShorthandFormat() detection function (currently returns false for backward compatibility) - Updated wrapping/unwrapping logic to handle both regular and shorthand formats - Updated MockMinifier to handle shorthand format - Exported new constants from index.ts - All tests passing Co-authored-by: dmichon-msft <26827560+dmichon-msft@users.noreply.github.com>
- Implemented isMethodShorthandFormat() to detect shorthand by checking for absence of '=>' or 'function(' before first '{'
- Updated unwrapping logic to correctly extract shorthand format by finding __DEFAULT_ID__ marker and removing wrapper
- Fixed MockMinifier to properly handle shorthand format without breaking the method syntax
- All tests passing with updated snapshots

- Use regex pattern /function\s*\(/ for more robust function keyword detection with whitespace variations - Replace magic number 3 with explicit minifiedSuffix variable for better maintainability - Add documentation showing complete wrapper structure in constants comments - All tests still passing, no security issues found Co-authored-by: dmichon-msft <26827560+dmichon-msft@users.noreply.github.com>

@copilot These error messages suggest that the code being handed to the minifier is still malformed.

Fixed in cb7e191. The issue was whitespace in the wrapper constants that was being stripped by the minifier, causing the unwrapping logic to fail. Removed all whitespace and simplified the unwrapping to just use constant lengths.

@copilot Don't put any whitespace in the prefix and suffix; it will get trimmed out by the minifier and therefore can't be expected to still match afterwards.

Simplified in cb7e191. Now just using unwrapped.replace(0, MODULE_WRAPPER_SHORTHAND_PREFIX.length - 1, '') for the prefix and unwrapped.replace(len - MODULE_WRAPPER_SHORTHAND_SUFFIX.length, len - 1, '') for the suffix.
- Remove whitespace from MODULE_WRAPPER_SHORTHAND_PREFIX/SUFFIX (minifier strips it) - Change moduleShorthandFormat from Map to Set (only true values matter) - Simplify unwrapping logic to just use prefix/suffix lengths instead of complex searching - All tests passing Co-authored-by: dmichon-msft <26827560+dmichon-msft@users.noreply.github.com>

Add at least one snapshot unit test verifying the code being sent to the minifier. Customize output.environment.methodShorthand and output.environment.arrowFunction to test all three possible syntaxes.

This is not the normal format. It will be either

or
__MINIFY_MODULE__((args)=>{...});

Fixed in 2a20639. Webpack actually emits modules as (__params__){body} without function keyword or =>, which is method shorthand format. Modules are now properly detected as shorthand and wrapped with __MINIFY_MODULE__({__DEFAULT_ID__(__params__){body}}); which creates valid JavaScript that terser can minify.

Fixed in c9c9ebe. Updated comment to clarify regular format must be __MINIFY_MODULE__(function(args){...}); or __MINIFY_MODULE__((args)=>{...});, not the shorthand (args){} format.
- Changed module token from `__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__hash` to `(){this["__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__hash"]}`
- This creates syntactically valid JavaScript that terser can parse and minify
- After minification, terser converts bracket notation to dot notation: `this.__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__hash`
- Updated CHUNK_MODULE_REGEX to match the minified format
- All tests passing with no syntax errors in chunks
- Terser can now successfully minify assets containing module placeholders

- Changed shorthand detection to return false (webpack doesn't emit true shorthand yet)
- Using regular wrapper format for all modules
- Token format: `(){void "__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__hash"}`
- Regex matches complete token structure
- Tests passing but terser still has syntax errors (need to investigate webpack output formats)

This new regex is only valid in the object method shorthand, and will not match valid code if method shorthand is not supported.
There are three possible representations:
"id":__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__HASH__(methodShorthand: false, object)__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__HASH__(array syntax)"id"__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__HASH__(methodShorthand: true, object) <= for the sake of this last one, we should optionally match the leading:so that we write it as the first case, but discard the:when pasting the module content. For this purpose the regex should have a capturing group for the leading:and the replacer should be updated to keep the:(or empty string) if not in shorthand mode, and discard it if in shorthand mode.

Fixed in a034c24. Updated regex to (:?)\(\)\{void "__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__([A-Za-z0-9$_]+)"\} with first capture group for optional ':'. Rehydration logic now preserves ':' for non-shorthand formats and discards it for shorthand format by checking the isShorthand field added to IModuleInfo.
- MODULE_WRAPPER_SHORTHAND_PREFIX now built as MODULE_WRAPPER_PREFIX + '{__DEFAULT_ID__'
- MODULE_WRAPPER_SHORTHAND_SUFFIX now built as '}' + MODULE_WRAPPER_SUFFIX
- Makes the relationship between base and shorthand constants explicit
- API signature updated (types changed from literals to string)
- All 7 tests still passing with zero syntax errors

Fixed in c9c9ebe. Now captures isShorthand from the closure (line 388) instead of looking it up from the moduleShorthandFormat Set. Removed the Set entirely since it's no longer needed.

This token shall be either ${CHUNK_MODULE_TOKEN}${hash} if the module is not in shorthand form, or else :${CHUNK_MODULE_TOKEN}${hash} if the module is in shorthand form (the : makes it into a valid object property assignment)

Fixed in c9c9ebe. Token is now ${CHUNK_MODULE_TOKEN}${hash} for non-shorthand modules or :${CHUNK_MODULE_TOKEN}${hash} for shorthand modules. The ':' prefix makes it a valid object property assignment in shorthand mode. Updated CHUNK_MODULE_REGEX to (:?)__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__([A-Za-z0-9$_]+) to capture the optional ':'.
- Use isShorthand from closure instead of moduleShorthandFormat Set (removed Set entirely)
- Token format: plain token for non-shorthand, ':' prefix for shorthand (':__WEBPACK_CHUNK_MODULE__hash')
- Simplified CHUNK_MODULE_REGEX to match plain token with optional ':' prefix
- Reverted asset token skip logic (was categorically wrong)
- Updated comment: regular format is function(...) or (...)=>, not (...){}
- All 7 tests passing with zero syntax errors

Prefer < 0 over === -1. It's more friendly to developers from other languages where indexOf can return varying negative values (such as Java), and also more concise.
