Right now i haven't time to maintain this project and i looking for for maintainers! Create issue if you want to maintain this project.
JavaScript obfuscator is a powerful free obfuscator for JavaScript with a wide number of features which provides protection for your source code.
Example of obfuscated code: gist.github.com
- Webpack plugin: webpack-obfuscator
- Webpack loader: obfuscator-loader
- Gulp: gulp-javascript-obfuscator
- Grunt: grunt-contrib-obfuscator
- Rollup: rollup-plugin-javascript-obfuscator
- Weex: weex-devtool
- Malta: malta-js-obfuscator

Big thanks to all supporters!
If you have a question - check this section first: FAQ
It is not recommended to obfuscate vendor scripts and polyfills, since the obfuscated code is 15-80% slower (depends on options) and the files are significantly larger.

Returns ObfuscationResult
object which contains two public methods:
getObfuscatedCode()
- returnsstring
with obfuscated code;getSourceMap()
- ifsourceMap
option is enabled - returnsstring
with source map or an empty string ifsourceMapMode
option is set asinline
.
Calling toString()
for ObfuscationResult
object will return string
with obfuscated code.
Method takes two parameters, sourceCode
and options
– the source code and the opitons respectively:
sourceCode
(string
, default:null
) – any valid source code, passed as a string;options
(Object
, default:null
) – an object with options.
For available options see options.
See CLI options.
Usage:
javascript-obfuscator input_file_name.js [options]
javascript-obfuscator input_file_name.js --output output_file_name.js [options]
Obfuscation of single input file with .js
extension.
If the destination path is not specified with the --output
option, obfuscated file will saved into the input file directory with INPUT_FILE_NAME-obfuscated.js
name.
Examples:
javascript-obfuscator samples/sample.js --compact true --self-defending false
// creates a new file samples/sample-obfuscated.js
javascript-obfuscator samples/sample.js --output output/output.js --compact true --self-defending false
// creates a new file output/output.js
Usage:
javascript-obfuscator ./dist [options]
// creates a new obfuscated files under `./dist` directory near the input files with `obfuscated` postfix
javascript-obfuscator ./dist --output ./dist/obfuscated [options]
// creates a folder structure with obfuscated files under `./dist/obfuscated` path
Obfuscation of all .js
files under input directory. If this directory contains already obfuscated files with -obfuscated
postfix - these files will ignored.
Obfuscated files will saved into the input directory under INPUT_FILE_NAME-obfuscated.js
name.
You can disable and enable obfuscation for specific parts of the code by adding following comments:
- disable:
// javascript-obfuscator:disable
or/* javascript-obfuscator:disable */
; - enable:
// javascript-obfuscator:enable
or/* javascript-obfuscator:enable */
.
Example:
// input
var foo = 1;
// javascript-obfuscator:disable
var bar = 2;
// output
var _0xabc123 = 0x1;
var bar = 2;
Conditional comments affect only direct transformations of AST-tree nodes. All child transformations still will be applied to the AST-tree nodes.
For example:
- Obfuscation of the variable's name at its declaration is called direct transformation;
- Obfuscation of the variable's name beyond its declaration is called child transformation.
Some input source code that will obfuscated with some obfuscation options can trigger false positive alerts in a few antiviruses. If you will get this false positive triggers, try to play with obfuscation options.
- Try to change
stringArrayEncoding
option value betweenrc4
andbase64
values or disable it completely; - Try to change
identifierNamesGenerator
option value fromhexadecimal
onmangled
; - Try to disable
selfDefending
.
If this wont help - attach your source code and describe your obfuscation options here: javascript-obfuscator#51

Default: ``
Name of JS/JSON config file which contains obfuscator options. These will be overridden by options passed directly to CLI
Type: boolean
Default: false
⚠️ This option greatly affects the performance up to 1.5x slower runtime speed. Use controlFlowFlatteningThreshold
to set percentage of nodes that will affected by control flow flattening.
Enables code control flow flattening. Control flow flattening is a structure transformation of the source code that hinders program comprehension.
Example:
// input
(function(){
function foo () {
return function () {
var sum = 1 + 2;
console.log(1);
console.log(2);
console.log(3);
console.log(4);
console.log(5);
console.log(6);
}
}
foo()();

Type: number
Default: 0.75
Min: 0
Max: 1
The probability that the controlFlowFlattening
transformation will be applied to the node.
This setting is especially useful for large code size because large amounts of control flow transformations can slow down your code and increase code size.
controlFlowFlatteningThreshold: 0
equals to controlFlowFlattening: false
.
Type: boolean
Default: false
⚠️ Dramatically increases size of obfuscated code (up to 200%), use only if size of obfuscated code doesn't matter. Use deadCodeInjectionThreshold
to set percentage of nodes that will affected by dead code injection.
With this option random blocks of dead code will add to the obfuscated code.
Example:
// input
(function(){
if (true) {
var foo = function () {
console.log('abc');
console.log('cde');
console.log('efg');
console.log('hij');
};

}());
Type: number
Default: 0.4
Min: 0
Max: 1
Allows to set percentage of nodes that will affected by deadCodeInjection
.
Type: boolean
Default: false
This option makes it almost impossible to use the console
tab of the Developer Tools (both on WebKit-based and Mozilla Firefox).
- WebKit-based: blocks the site window, but you still can navigate through Developer Tools panel.
- Firefox: does not block the site window, but still won't let you use DevTools.
Type: boolean
Default: false
If checked, an interval is used to force the debug mode on the Console tab, making it harder to use other features of the Developer Tools. Works if debugProtection
is enabled.
Type: boolean
Default: false
Disables the use of console.log
, console.info
, console.error
, console.warn
, console.debug
, console.exception
and console.trace
by replacing them with empty functions. This makes the use of the debugger harder.
Type: string[]
Default: []
Locks the obfuscated source code so it only runs on specific domains and/or sub-domains. This makes really hard for someone just copy and paste your source code and run elsewhere.
It's possible to lock your code to more than one domain or sub-domain. For instance, to lock it so the code only runs on www.example.com add www.example.com
, to make it work on any sub-domain from example.com, use .example.com
.
Type: string[]
Default: []
A file names or globs which indicates files to exclude from obfuscation.
Type: string
Default: hexadecimal
Sets identifier names generator.
Available values:
hexadecimal
: identifier names like_0xabc123
mangled
: short identifier names likea
,b
,c
Type: string
Default: ''
Sets prefix for all global identifiers.
Use this option when you want to obfuscate multiple files. This option helps to avoid conflicts between global identifiers of these files. Prefix should be different for every file.
Type: string
Default: ''
Allows to set name of the input file with source code. This name will used internally for source map generation.
Type: boolean
Default: false
Enables logging of the information to the console.
Type: boolean
Default: false
Enables obfuscation of global variable and function names with declaration.
Type: string[]
Default: []
Disables obfuscation and generation of identifiers, which being matched by passed RegExp patterns.
Example:
{
reservedNames: [
'^someVariable',
'functionParameter_\d'
]
}
Type: string[]
Default: []
Disables transformation of string literals, which being matched by passed RegExp patterns.
Example:
{
reservedStrings: [
'react-native',
'\.\/src\/test',
'some-string_\d'
]
}
Type: boolean
Default: true
⚠️ stringArray
must be enabled
Shift the stringArray
array by a fixed and random (generated at the code obfuscation) places. This makes it harder to match the order of the removed strings to their original place.
This option is recommended if your original source code isn't small, as the helper function can attract attention.
Type: number
Default: 0
This option sets seed for random generator. This is useful for creating repeatable results.
If seed is 0
- random generator will work without seed.
Type: boolean
Default: false
⚠️ Don't change obfuscated code in any way after obfuscation with this option, because any change like uglifying of code can trigger self defending and code wont work anymore!
This option makes the output code resilient against formatting and variable renaming. If one tries to use a JavaScript beautifier on the obfuscated code, the code won't work anymore, making it harder to understand and modify it.
Type: boolean
Default: false
Enables source map generation for obfuscated code.
Source maps can be useful to help you debug your obfuscated JavaScript source code. If you want or need to debug in production, you can upload the separate source map file to a secret location and then point your browser there.
Type: string
Default: ``
Sets base url to the source map import url when sourceMapMode: 'separate'
.
CLI example:
javascript-obfuscator input.js --output out.js --source-map true --source-map-base-url 'http://localhost:9000'
Result:
//# sourceMappingURL=http://localhost:9000/out.js.map
Type: string
Default: ``
Sets file name for output source map when sourceMapMode: 'separate'
.
CLI example:
javascript-obfuscator input.js --output out.js --source-map true --source-map-base-url 'http://localhost:9000' --source-map-file-name example
Result:
//# sourceMappingURL=http://localhost:9000/example.js.map
Type: string
Default: separate
Specifies source map generation mode:
inline
- emit a single file with source maps instead of having a separate file;separate
- generates corresponding '.map' file with source map. In case you run obfuscator through CLI - adds link to source map file to the end of file with obfuscated code//# sourceMappingUrl=file.js.map
.
Type: boolean
Default: true
Removes string literals and place them in a special array. For instance, the string "Hello World"
in var m = "Hello World";
will be replaced with something like var m = _0x12c456[0x1];
Type: boolean|string
Default: false
This option can slow down your script.
Encode all string literals of the stringArray
using base64
or rc4
and inserts a special code that used to decode it back at runtime.
Available values:
true
(boolean
): encodestringArray
values usingbase64
false
(boolean
): don't encodestringArray
values'base64'
(string
): encodestringArray
values usingbase64
'rc4'
(string
): encodestringArray
values usingrc4
. About 30-50% slower thanbase64
, but more harder to get initial values. It is recommended to disableunicodeEscapeSequence
option withrc4
encoding to prevent very large size of obfuscated code.
Type: number
Default: 0.8
Min: 0
Max: 1
⚠️ stringArray
option must be enabled
You can use this setting to adjust the probability (from 0 to 1) that a string literal will be inserted into the stringArray
.
This setting is especially useful for large code size because it repeatedly calls to the string array
and can slow down your code.
stringArrayThreshold: 0
equals to stringArray: false
.
Type: string
Default: browser
Allows to set target environment for obfuscated code.
Available values:
browser
;browser-no-eval
;node
.
Currently output code for browser
and node
targets is identical.
Output code for browser-no-eval
target is not using eval
.
Type: boolean
Default: false
Enables transformation of object keys.
Example:
// input
(function(){
var object = {
foo: 'test1',
bar: {
baz: 'test2'
}
};
})();
// output
var _0x5a21 = [
'foo',
'test1',
'bar',
'baz',
'test2'
];
var _0x223f = function (_0x474dc0, _0x10db96) {
_0x474dc0 = _0x474dc0 - 0x0;
var _0x4c8bf7 = _0x5a21[_0x474dc0];
return _0x4c8bf7;
};
(function () {
var _0x2e1a8e = {};
_0x2e1a8e[_0x223f('0x0')] = _0x223f('0x1');
_0x2e1a8e[_0x223f('0x2')] = {};
_0x2e1a8e[_0x223f('0x2')][_0x223f('0x3')] = _0x223f('0x4');
}());
Type: boolean
Default: false
Allows to enable/disable string conversion to unicode escape sequence.
Unicode escape sequence increases code size greatly and strings easily can be reverted to their original view. Recommended to enable this option only for small source code.

The README on the master branch might not match that of the latest stable release.
Try to run npm link javascript-obfuscator
command or install it globally with npm i -g javascript-obfuscator
Likely this is selfDefending
mechanism. Something is changing source code after obfuscation with selfDefending
option.
No. JSX support isn't planned.
