debarrel

Removes barrel files (index re-export files) from JavaScript and TypeScript codebases, rewriting imports to point directly at the source modules.

Before / After

ts

Pure barrel files (files that only re-export) are renamed to index.barrel.bak.ts for review.

What it handles

  • Named re-exports (export { X } from './X')
  • Aliased re-exports (export { X as Y } from './X')
  • Default-as-named re-exports (export { default as X } from './X')
  • Namespace re-exports (export * as X from './X')
  • Import-then-reexport patterns
  • Mixed barrel files that contain their own declarations (only the re-exported imports are rewritten; the barrel is kept)
