Claude Bot 01ee9a152a feat(bundler): add --standalone flag to inline all assets into HTML
Add `--standalone` CLI flag and `standalone: true` Bun.build() option
that produces self-contained HTML files with all JS, CSS, and assets
inlined directly into the HTML output.

- `<script src="...">` tags become `<script>` with bundled code inline
- `<link rel="stylesheet" href="...">` tags become `<style>` with CSS inline
- Asset references (images, fonts) become `data:` URIs
- CSS `url()` references become `data:` URIs (128KB threshold removed)
- Only HTML files are emitted, no separate JS/CSS/asset files

Validation:
- Errors if no HTML entrypoints are specified
- Errors if target is not browser
- Errors if --splitting is used
- Errors if --compile is used

This is useful for distributing .html files that work via file:// URLs
without needing a web server or worrying about CORS restrictions.

Tests

Finding tests

Tests are located in the test/ directory and are organized using the following structure:

  • test/
    • js/ - tests for JavaScript APIs.
    • cli/ - tests for commands, configs, and stdout.
    • bundler/ - tests for the transpiler/bundler.
    • regression/ - tests that reproduce a specific issue.
    • harness.ts - utility functions that can be imported from any test.

The tests in test/js/ directory are further categorized by the type of API.

  • test/js/
    • bun/ - tests for Bun-specific APIs.
    • node/ - tests for Node.js APIs.
    • web/ - tests for Web APIs, like fetch().
    • first_party/ - tests for npm packages that are built-in, like undici.
    • third_party/ - tests for npm packages that are not built-in, but are popular, like esbuild.

Running tests

To run a test, use Bun's built-in test command: bun test.

bun test # Run all tests
bun test js/bun # Only run tests in a directory
bun test sqlite.test.ts # Only run a specific test

If you encounter lots of errors, try running bun install, then trying again.

Writing tests

Tests are written in TypeScript (preferred) or JavaScript using Jest's describe(), test(), and expect() APIs.

import { describe, test, expect } from "bun:test";
import { gcTick } from "harness";

describe("TextEncoder", () => {
  test("can encode a string", async () => {
    const encoder = new TextEncoder();
    const actual = encoder.encode("bun");
    await gcTick();
    expect(actual).toBe(new Uint8Array([0x62, 0x75, 0x6E]));
  });
});

If you are fixing a bug that was reported from a GitHub issue, remember to add a test in the test/regression/ directory.

// test/regression/issue/02005.test.ts

import { it, expect } from "bun:test";

it("regex literal should work with non-latin1", () => {
  const text = "这是一段要替换的文字";
  expect(text.replace(new RegExp("要替换"), "")).toBe("这是一段的文字");
  expect(text.replace(/要替换/, "")).toBe("这是一段的文字");
});

In the future, a bot will automatically close or re-open issues when a regression is detected or resolved.

Zig tests

These tests live in various .zig files throughout Bun's codebase, leveraging Zig's builtin test keyword.

Currently, they're not run automatically nor is there a simple way to run all of them. We will make this better soon.

TypeScript

Test files should be written in TypeScript. The types in packages/bun-types should be updated to support all new APIs. Changes to the .d.ts files in packages/bun-types will be immediately reflected in test files; no build step is necessary.

Writing a test will often require using invalid syntax, e.g. when checking for errors when an invalid input is passed to a function. TypeScript provides a number of escape hatches here.

  • // @ts-expect-error - This should be your first choice. It tells TypeScript that the next line should fail typechecking.
  • // @ts-ignore - Ignore the next line entirely.
  • // @ts-nocheck - Put this at the top of the file to disable typechecking on the entire file. Useful for autogenerated test files, or when ignoring/disabling type checks an a per-line basis is too onerous.
