Summary

Switch from .npmignore to a files allowlist in package.json, and stop shipping the four source maps for the unminified bundles. The .min.js.map files are kept so CDN consumers can still debug.

N/A

Changes

  • Add files to package.json covering index.*, lib/, CHANGELOG.md, MIGRATION_GUIDE.md, and the bundles actually referenced by main / module / exports / jsdelivr / unpkg.
  • Delete .npmignore.
  • Drop dist/axios.js.map, dist/esm/axios.js.map, dist/browser/axios.cjs.map, dist/node/axios.cjs.map from the publish (they mapped a readable bundle back to lib/, which already ships).
Metric Before After Δ
Tarball (gzip) 746,775 B 457,444 B −289 KB (−39%)
Unpacked 2,832,461 B 1,629,526 B −1.20 MB (−42%)
Entries 89 85 −4

Verified with npm pack --dry-run that every entry point still resolves: dist/node/axios.cjs (main), dist/browser/axios.cjs, dist/esm/axios.js, index.js, index.d.ts/index.d.cts, dist/axios.min.js (jsdelivr/unpkg).

Checklist

  • Tests added or updated (or N/A with reason)
    • N/A, publish-shape change only. Verified via npm pack --dry-run.
  • Docs / types updated if public API changed (index.d.ts and index.d.cts)
    • No public API change.
  • No breaking changes (or called out explicitly above)
    • Only the four unminified-bundle source maps stop shipping.

Summary by cubic

Shrink the published package ~40% by switching to a files allowlist and removing unused unminified source maps. Keeps .min.js.map for CDN debugging; all entry points remain unchanged.

Description

  • Switch to package.json files allowlist (include index.js, index.d.ts, index.d.cts, CHANGELOG.md, MIGRATION_GUIDE.md, lib/, dist/axios.js, dist/axios.min.js, dist/axios.min.js.map, dist/esm/axios.js, dist/esm/axios.min.js, dist/esm/axios.min.js.map, dist/browser/axios.cjs, dist/node/axios.cjs); remove .npmignore.
  • Stop publishing unminified source maps: dist/axios.js.map, dist/esm/axios.js.map, dist/browser/axios.cjs.map, dist/node/axios.cjs.map; keep .min.js.map.
  • Size impact: tarball 746,775 B → 457,444 B (~−39%); unpacked 2,832,461 B → 1,629,526 B (~−42%).
  • Verified with npm pack --dry-run that main/module/exports/jsdelivr/unpkg entry points resolve: dist/node/axios.cjs, dist/browser/axios.cjs, dist/esm/axios.js, index.js, index.d.ts/index.d.cts, dist/axios.min.js.
  • Docs: Suggest adding a note in /docs/ about publish contents and that only .min.js.map files are shipped for CDN debugging.
  • Testing & SemVer: No runtime/API changes; publish-shape only. Patch release.
