Why does create-react-app build my app with the debug version of Dashjs?

I have a React app using the Dashjs player. I build it with react-scripts build and the app works fine except that it uses dash.all.debug.js instead of dash.all.min.js.

What did I miss?

looks like dashjs module is exporting the debug file as their main file program:

after running npm install [email protected], i opened ./node_modules/dashjs/package.json

{
  "name": "dashjs",
  "version": "4.0.0-npm",
  "description": "A reference client implementation for the playback of MPEG DASH via Javascript and compliant browsers.",
  "author": "Dash Industry Forum",
  "license": "BSD-3-Clause",
  "main": "dist/dash.all.debug.js",
  "types": "index.d.ts",
  ...
}

as you can see, "main": "dist/dash.all.debug.js" is declared as the main entry point

when you import the package:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import dashjs from 'dashjs';

export default class App extends Component { ... }

the debug version will be bundled in your final artifact

to change that, you can explicit import the min version:

import React, { Component } from 'react';
import dashjs from 'dashjs/dist/dash.all.min.js';

export default class App extends Component { ... }

or open an issue in dashjs repository
