Removing en-US locale from bundle

[danilstoyanov]

Hello guys!
Thank you all for contributing in such a good date lib.

But I wonder, is it possible to remove en-US locale from bundle if I need to use only Ru locale? I tried to use webpack.ContextReplacementPlugin which is mentioned in docs, but still en-US locale is getting to the bundle.

Or en-US locale is default and it's not possible to remove it somehow?

Hey! Yes, it's possible to replace the default locale. Could you please show code snippet with the usage of webpack.ContextReplacementPlugin?

[danilstoyanov]

Sure!
Here it is

To be honest, I'm not quite sure how webpack.ContextReplacementPlugin works in this context, but to replace the default locale you can use NormalModuleReplacementPlugin:

new webpack.NormalModuleReplacementPlugin(
  /locale\/en-US/,
  'date-fns/locale/ru'
)

It will replace en-US locale, so you can skip passing ru to functions. I just tested it on my app and works as expected:

Yeah, it's working good
Thank you for fast response!
