Too many files with ng build --prof

[Francesco Favero]

Hello everyone.
I recently upgraded to angular8 a toy project I was working on.
Surprisingly, niw when I build the project with ng build --prod, it creates various strange files (named eg 1.js 3.js...), in addition to the expected assets, polyfill.js, runtme.js ... and so on.
I couldn't find any explanation on the docs or in google for this, so I decided to stop by here.

The problem is that serving the app within a Django backend the js code is looking for deps dencies in the '/' path when all the static files are in '/static'.
The ugly fox for now it's to set the base url in the index.html template to '/static', but I'd like to avoid it.

Does anyone know if this is normal?

Hi Francesco,

You can build with the correct baseUrl by using it like:

ng build --baseHref="/static/"

The numbered files are your module. Also, you get 2 versions of each one, an es2015, and an es5 version. In modern browsers, there is less need for polyfills and compiling to an old JS version.

Hi Sander,

I've managed to get it working by configuring differently my Django application (use whitenoise to serve static files).

I'll give it a go with the baseHref option to se the behavior :-).

Thanks a lot :-).
