JavaScript obfuscator for Node.js is a free alternative to js-obfuscator (which uses javascriptobfuscator.com)
Online version: javascriptobfuscator.herokuapp.com
Example of obfuscated code: gist.github.com
#####Obfuscate only the code that belongs to you.
It is not recommended to obfuscate vendor scripts and polyfills, since the obfuscated code is 25-30% slower and the files are significantly larger.
Install the package from NPM and add it to your devDependencies:
$ npm install --save-dev javascript-obfuscator
Here's an example of how to use it:
var JavaScriptObfuscator = require('javascript-obfuscator');
var obfuscationResult = JavaScriptObfuscator.obfuscate(
`
(function(){
var variable = 'abc';
console.log(variable);
})();
`,
{
rotateStringArray: false
}
);
console.log(obfuscationResult.getObfuscatedCode());
/*
var _0xabf1 = [
'\x61\x62\x63',
'\x6c\x6f\x67'
];
(function() {
var _0xe6fab6 = _0xabf1[0x0];
console[_0xabf1[0x1]](_0xe6fab6);
}());
*/
obfuscate(sourceCode, options)Returns ObfuscationResult object which contains two public methods:
getObfuscatedCode() - returns string with obfuscated code;getSourceMap() - if sourceMap options is enable - returns string with source map or an empty string if sourceMapMode option is set as inline.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.
Usage:
javascript-obfuscator in.js [options]
javascript-obfuscator in.js -output out.js [options]
If the destination path is not specified through --output option, obfuscated code will saved into input file directory with name like INPUT_FILE_NAME-obfuscated.js
Examples:
javascript-obfuscator samples/sample.js --compact true --selfDefending false
// creates a new file samples/sample-obfuscated.js
javascript-obfuscator samples/sample.js --output output/output.js --compact true --selfDefending false
// creates a new file output/output.js
See CLI options.

-v, --version
-h, --help
-o, --output
--compact <boolean>
--debugProtection <boolean>
--debugProtectionInterval <boolean>
--disableConsoleOutput <boolean>
--reservedNames <list> (comma separated)
--rotateStringArray <boolean>
--seed <number>
--selfDefending <boolean>
--sourceMap <boolean>
--sourceMapBaseUrl <string>
--sourceMapFileName <string>
--sourceMapMode <string> [inline, separate]
--stringArray <boolean>
--stringArrayEncoding <boolean|string> [true, false, base64, rc4]
--stringArrayThreshold <number>
--unicodeEscapeSequence <boolean>
compactType: boolean Default: true
Compact code output on one line.
debugProtectionType: 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).
debugProtectionIntervalType: 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.
disableConsoleOutputType: boolean Default: true
Disables the use of console.log, console.info, console.error and console.warn by replacing them with empty functions. This makes the use of the debugger harder.
domainLockType: 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.
reservedNamesType: string[] Default: []
Disables the obfuscation of variables names, function names and function parameters that match the Regular Expression used.
Example:
{
reservedNames: [
'^someVariable',
'functionParameter_\d'
]
}
rotateStringArrayType: boolean Default: true
stringArray must be enabledShift 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.
seedType: 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.
selfDefendingType: boolean Default: false
compact value to trueThis 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.
sourceMapType: boolean Default: false
Enables source map generation for obfuscated code.
Source maps can be useful to help you debug your obfuscated Java Script 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.
sourceMapBaseUrlType: string Default: ``
Sets base url to the source map import url when sourceMapMode: 'separate'.
CLI example:
javascript-obfuscator input.js --output out.js --sourceMap true --sourceMapBaseUrl 'http://localhost:9000'
Result:
//# sourceMappingURL=http://localhost:9000/out.js.map
sourceMapFileNameType: string Default: ``
Sets file name for output source map when sourceMapMode: 'separate'.
CLI example:
javascript-obfuscator input.js --output out.js --sourceMap true --sourceMapBaseUrl 'http://localhost:9000' --sourceMapFileName example
Result:
//# sourceMappingURL=http://localhost:9000/example.js.map
sourceMapModeType: 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. If obfuscator run through CLI - adds link to source map file to the end of file with obfuscated code //# sourceMappingUrl=file.js.map.stringArrayType: 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];
stringArrayEncodingType: boolean|string Default: false
stringArray option must be enabledThis option can slightly 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): encode stringArray values using base64false (boolean): don't encode stringArray values'base64' (string): encode stringArray values using base64'rc4' (string): encode stringArray values using rc4. About 30-35% slower then base64, but more harder to get initial values
stringArrayThresholdType: number Default: 0.8 Min: 0 Max: 1
stringArray option must be enabledYou 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 useful with large code size because repeatdely calls to the stringArray array can slightly slow down your code.
stringArrayThreshold: 0 equals to stringArray: false.
unicodeEscapeSequenceType: boolean Default: true
Allows to enable/disable string conversion to unicode escape sequence.
Unicode escape sequence greatly increases code size. Recommend to disable this option when using stringArrayEncoding (especially with rc4 encoding).
