Super simple file-size checking utility that lets you check the file size of a given JavaScript file untransformed, gzipped, uglified, and uglified+gzipped. Works on any file if you skip uglification. (Uglification is also quite slow on large files.)
npm install -g jscale
On a file path:
jscale index.js
From a pipe:
cat index.js | jscale
You can uglify JS files by passing -u true or --uglify true. Don't do this on non-JS files - it won't work!
jscale index.js -u true
# or
cat index.js | jscale -u true
I created this because I wanted to quickly measure the weight of a potential third party dependency. Here's it working:
> jscale js-client-sdk-v2/dist/owen.js
info fyi untransformed size: 95.71kB
info fyi gzipped size: 29.31kB
info fyi uglified size: 94.27kB
info fyi uglifiedAndGzipped size: 28.46kB

Be able to pass custom uglify options to this, as the uglifier isn't super useful (but the gzipper is nice).
