Usage

Edit or create this file at the root of your project: gatsby-config.js

module.exports = {
    plugins: [
        {
            resolve: "gatsby-plugin-tidy",
            options: {
                cleanPublic: true,
                cleanCache: true,
                removeHashes: true,
                removeArtifacts: true,
                noJsMap: true,
                removeInlineStyles: true,
                jsDir: "js",
                cssDir: "css"
            }
        }
    ]
};

Options

  • cleanPublic | default: false | true = Deletes the ./public directory on build
  • cleanCache | default: false | true = Deletes the ./.cache directory on build
  • removeHashes | default: false | true = Removes hashes from js/css filenames
  • removeArtifacts | default: false | true = Removes build artifacts ./public/webpack.stats.json and ./public/chunk-map.json
  • noJsMap | default: false | true = Don’t generate js .map files
  • removeInlineStyles | default: false | true = Don’t put styles inline in html
  • jsDir | default: “js” | Change the output directory for js/map files relative to ./public
  • cssDir | default: “css” | Change the output directory for css files relative to ./public

Possible errors

  • Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open ‘…\public\page-data\ index\page-data.json’ | delete the .cache directory and retry
  • Blank page using gatsby develop | delete the .cache directory and retry

The cleanCache option helps and runs onPreInit however cached content may have already been loaded before the plugin hook executes
