Wakaru

Wakaru is the Javascript decompiler for modern frontend. It brings back the original code from a bundled and transpiled source.

• 🔪📦 Unpacks bundled JavaScript into separated modules from webpack and browserify.
• ⛏️📜 Unminifies transpiled code from Terser, Babel, SWC, and TypeScript.
• ✨📚 Detects and restores downgraded syntaxes (even with helpers!). See the list.
• 🧪🛡️ All cases are protected by tests. All code is written in TypeScript.

Demo

See live demo for detailed examples.

🖥 Using the CLI

Interactive mode

By default, the CLI will run in interactive mode and guide you through the process.
You can also pass options to skip some steps in the interactive mode.

npx @wakaru/cli
# or
pnpm dlx @wakaru/cli

Options

Run npx @wakaru/cli --help to see the full list of options.

--concurrency can be used to speed up the process. But please aware that the process might OOM if the input file is too large.

Non-interactive mode

If you want to run the CLI in non-interactive mode, you can specify the feature by passing the feature name as the first argument.

unpacker and unminify will run only the corresponding feature.
all will run both unpacker and unminify sequentially.

npx @wakaru/cli all      <files...> [options]
npx @wakaru/cli unpacker <files...> [options]
npx @wakaru/cli unminify <files...> [options]

These options are only available in all mode.

When running a single feature (either unpacker or unminify), the CLI will only uses the path specified in the --output option. This means that, unlike in the all mode where subdirectories (out/unpack and out/unminify) are automatically created within the output directory, in single feature mode, the output files are placed directly in the specified --output directory without any additional subdirectories.

📦 Using the API

npm install @wakaru/unpacker @wakaru/unminify
# or
pnpm install @wakaru/unpacker @wakaru/unminify
# or
yarn add @wakaru/unpacker @wakaru/unminify

import { unpack } from '@wakaru/unpacker';

const { modules, moduleIdMapping } = await unpack(sourceCode);
for (const mod of modules) {
  const filename = moduleIdMapping[mod.id] ?? `module-${mod.id}.js`;
  fs.writeFileSync(outputPath, mod.code, 'utf-8');
}

import { runDefaultTransformationRules, runTransformationRules } from '@wakaru/unminify';

const file = {
  source: '...', // source code
  path: '...',   // path to the file, used for advanced usecases. Can be empty.
}
// This function will apply all rules that are enabled by default.
const { code } = await runDefaultTransformationRules(file);

// You can also specify the rules to apply. Order matters.
const rules = [
  'un-esm',
  ...
]
const { code } = await runTransformationRules(file, rules);
