large dependancy snapsvg

See original GitHub issue

Currently webpack-analyzer throws up snapsvg-cjs as being a very large dependancy

245 KiB

Are there any alternatives to this? as this seems excessive.

@negomi

Actually I just did a brief investigation into the codebase and I realised that only a few menus actually use snap-svg.

You also correctly export the full path structure of the library.

There for those rollup/webpack users can cherry pick the menu they need without importing those they dont.

e.g.

import BurgerMenu from 'react-burger-menu/lib/menus/push';

For us this saved 80Kb even after GZip … thats impressive.

Perhaps this should be noted in the docs.

Hi @andrewmclagan, yep, I’m aware of this issue 😕

Aside from replacing the Snap.svg dependency with another library, I don’t currently know of a way to avoid this, and I’m afraid I don’t have much time to work on it at the moment.

I’d accept a PR if anyone else has any suggestions.
