Overview
========

[](#overview)

**It's non-official module yet. Just for alpha testing!**
---------------------------------------------------------

[](#its-non-official-module-yet-just-for-alpha-testing)

Magento\_Baler module introduces functionality to preload theme JS bundles configuration (core-bundle.js & requirejs-bundle-config.js) generated by [Baler](https://github.com/magento/baler/) - tool for static analysis of Javascript dependencies.
This functionality is disabled by default and it can be enabled on the configuration page (Stores -> Configuration -> Advanced -> Developer -> Javascript Settings).
Developer settings is not displayed in production mode. To enable this feature in production mode, the CLI command `bin/magento config:set dev/js/enable_baler_js_bundling 1` can be used.

### What is not implemented in this module yet:

[](#what-is-not-implemented-in-this-module-yet)

1. The following features should be disabled when Magento\_Baler is enabled:
    - JS Bundling
    - JS Minification

### How to install module

[](#how-to-install-module)

#### Using Git

[](#using-git)

```
mkdir app/code/Magento
git clone https://github.com/magento/m2-baler.git app/code/Magento/Baler
bin/magento setup:upgrade
```

#### Using Composer

[](#using-composer)

Open you `composer.json` and change `"minimum-stability": "stable"` to `"minimum-stability": "dev"` and add `"prefer-stable": true`.

This means that composer will always use stable package unless there is one. If there is no stable package it will use dev version, then run:

```
composer config repositories.magento-baler vcs git@github.com:magento/m2-baler.git
composer require magento/module-baler:dev-master
bin/magento module:enable Magento_Baler
bin/magento setup:upgrade

```

#### Using Composer package at `repo.magento.com`

[](#using-composer-package-at-repomagentocom)

This module is available as alpha composer package on `repo.magento.com`. This package works both with 2.3.x and 2.4.x Magento releases.

Steps to install it:

1. Add `"magento/module-baler": "1.0.0-alpha"` to `require` section of `composer.json`
    So, `require` section looks like: ```
        "require": {
            "magento/product-community-edition": "2.3.4",
            "magento/module-baler": "1.0.0-alpha"
        },

    ```
