ERROR in static/js/10.1253c0b3f1b4afab1655.js from UglifyJs TypeError: "name.definition is not a function"

I got the following error when building for production. This is in a project that is using NPM webpack to build artifacts for a production server. The project is also using the UglifyJSPlugin in the following way:

const UglifyJSPlugin = require('uglifyjs-webpack-plugin')

      minimizer: [
          new UglifyJSPlugin({
            uglifyOptions: {
              compress: {
                warnings: false
              }
            },
            sourceMap: config.build.productionSourceMap,
            parallel: true
          }),

CodePudding user response:

If uglifyjs-webpack-plugin is an old version, like 1.1.1, upgrade; in my case, to to 2.2.0, the latest version.

npm install uglifyjs-webpack-plugin@latest

The following change is also necessary, moving the warnings false outside of the compress block for the new version.

      new UglifyJSPlugin({
        uglifyOptions: {
          warnings: false
        },
        sourceMap: config.build.productionSourceMap,
        parallel: true
      })

This resolved my problem.
