Recovers uncompiled TypeScript sources from Webpack sourcemaps. A fork of rarecoil's work.

unwebpack-sourcemap

Recover uncompiled TypeScript sources, JSX, and more from Webpack sourcemaps.

This is a Python command line application that parses Webpack sourcemaps and returns uncompiled TypeScript sources.

unwebpack-sourcemap can process source maps on the local filesystem, or it can discover source maps on a remote website.

Introduction

If you're unfamiliar with source maps, you can read:

• "Introduction to JavaScript Source Maps" by Google Chrome Developers
• "Use a source map" by Firefox Source Docs

Installation

1. Create a new Python virtualenv in a directory named venv.

python3 -m venv venv

2. Activate the virtualenv.

source venv/bin/activate

3. Install unwebpack-sourcemap from PyPI.

python3 -m pip install unwebpack-sourcemap

Note: unwebpack-sourcemap comes with Python dependencies that may conflict with the dependencies in your system installation of Python. That is why it is important to always install unwebpack-sourcemap inside of a virtualenv, which won't make any changes to your surrounding system.

4. Try running unwebpack-sourcemap.

unwebpack-sourcemap --help

The below examples assume that you are inside of an activated virtualenv.

If you have installed unwebpack-sourcemap in a virtualenv, but want to avoid activating it, you can find the unwebpack-sourcemap command in the location venv/bin/unwebpack-sourcemap.

Usage

These examples use the --make-directory flag to create a subdirectory named output_dir. You can omit the --make-directory if you want to use an existing empty directory.

Example #1: Unpacking a sourcemap on the local filesystem

unwebpack-sourcemap --make-directory --local /path/to/source.map output_dir

Example #2: Unpacking a sourcemap on a remote website

unwebpack-sourcemap --make-directory https://pathto.example.com/source.map output_dir

Example #3: Unpacking a sourcemap on a remote website (with autodetection)

To attempt to read all <script src> on an HTML page, fetch JS assets, look for sourceMappingURI, and pull sourcemaps from remote sources:

This will:

1. read all of the <script src=> tags on an HTML page
2. fetch JavaScript assets
3. look for sourceMappingURI and pull the sourcemaps that are found.

To do this, the command is:

unwebpack-sourcemap --make-directory --detect https://pathto.example.com/spa_root/ output_dir
