JavaScript obfuscator

JavaScript Obfuscator is a powerful free obfuscator for JavaScript, containing a variety of features which provide protection for your source code.

Key features:

variables renaming
strings extraction and encryption
dead code injection
control flow flattening
various code transformations
and more...

The example of obfuscated code: github.com

Huge thanks to all supporters!

NOTE! the README on the master branch might not match that of the latest stable release!

If you have a question, check this section first: FAQ

⚠️ Important

Only obfuscate the code that belongs to you.

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.

Installation

Using Yarn or NPM

Install the package with Yarn or NPM and add it to your dependencies or devDependencies:

$ yarn add --dev javascript-obfuscator

or

$ npm install --save-dev javascript-obfuscator

`obfuscate(sourceCode, options)`

Returns ObfuscationResult object which contains two public methods:

getObfuscatedCode() - returns string with obfuscated code;
getSourceMap() - if sourceMap option is enabled - 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.

`obfuscateMultiple(sourceCodesObject, options)`

Accepts sourceCodesObject that is a map which keys are identifiers of source codes and values are source codes:

{
    foo: 'var foo = 1;',
    bar: 'var bar = 2;'
}

Returns a map object which keys are identifiers of source codes and values are ObfuscationResult objects.

CLI usage

See CLI options.

Obfuscate single file

Usage:

javascript-obfuscator input_file_name.js [options]
javascript-obfuscator input_file_name.js --output output_file_name.js [options]
javascript-obfuscator input_file_name.js --output output_folder_name [options]
javascript-obfuscator input_folder_name --output output_folder_name [options]

Obfuscation of single input file with .js extension.

If the destination path is not specified with the --output option, the obfuscated file will be saved into the input file directory, with INPUT_FILE_NAME-obfuscated.js name.

Some 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

Obfuscate directory recursively

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.

Conditional comments

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.

Kind of variables

Kind of variables of inserted nodes will auto-detected, based on most prevailing kind of variables of source code.

Conflicts of identifier names between different files

During obfuscation of the different files, the same names can be generated for the global identifiers between these files. To prevent this set the unique prefix for all global identifiers for each obfuscated file with identifiersPrefix option.

When using CLI this prefix will be added automatically.

Antiviruses false positive virus alerts

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 between rc4 and base64 values or disable it completely;
Try to change identifierNamesGenerator option value from hexadecimal on mangled;
Try to disable selfDefending.

If this wont help - attach your source code and describe your obfuscation options here: javascript-obfuscator#51

`compact`

Type: boolean Default: true

Compact code output on one line.

`config`

Type: string Default: ``

Name of JS/JSON config file which contains obfuscator options. These will be overridden by options passed directly to CLI

`controlFlowFlattening`

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()();
})();

// output
(function () {
    function _0x3bfc5c() {
        return function () {
            var _0x3260a5 = {
                'WtABe': '4|0|6|5|3|2|1',
                'GokKo': function _0xf87260(_0x427a8e, _0x43354c) {
                    return _0x427a8e + _0x43354c;
                }
            };
            var _0x1ad4d6 = _0x3260a5['WtABe']['split']('|'), _0x1a7b12 = 0x0;
            while (!![]) {
                switch (_0x1ad4d6[_0x1a7b12++]) {
                case '0':
                    console['log'](0x1);
                    continue;
                case '1':
                    console['log'](0x6);
                    continue;
                case '2':
                    console['log'](0x5);
                    continue;
                case '3':
                    console['log'](0x4);
                    continue;
                case '4':
                    var _0x1f2f2f = _0x3260a5['GokKo'](0x1, 0x2);
                    continue;
                case '5':
                    console['log'](0x3);
                    continue;
                case '6':
                    console['log'](0x2);
                    continue;
                }
                break;
            }
        };
    }

	_0x3bfc5c()();
}());

`controlFlowFlatteningThreshold`

Type: number Default: 0.75 Min: 0 Max: 1

The probability that the controlFlowFlattening transformation will be applied to any given 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.

`deadCodeInjection`

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.

⚠️ This option forcibly enables `stringArray` option.

With this option, random blocks of dead code will be added to the obfuscated code.

Example:

// input
(function(){
    if (true) {
        var foo = function () {
            console.log('abc');
            console.log('cde');
            console.log('efg');
            console.log('hij');
        };
        
        var bar = function () {
            console.log('klm');
            console.log('nop');
            console.log('qrs');
        };
    
        var baz = function () {
            console.log('tuv');
            console.log('wxy');
            console.log('z');

`deadCodeInjectionThreshold`

Type: number Default: 0.4 Min: 0 Max: 1

Allows to set percentage of nodes that will affected by deadCodeInjection.

`debugProtection`

Type: boolean Default: false

⚠️ Can freeze your browser if you open the Developer Tools.

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.

`debugProtectionInterval`

Type: boolean Default: false

⚠️ Can freeze your browser! Use at own risk.

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.

`disableConsoleOutput`

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.

`domainLock`

Type: string[] Default: []

⚠️ This option does not work with `target: 'node'`

Allows to run the obfuscated source code only on specific domains and/or sub-domains. This makes really hard for someone to just copy and paste your source code and run it elsewhere.

Multiple domains and sub-domains

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 the root domain including any sub-domains (example.com, sub.example.com), use .example.com.

`exclude`

Type: string[] Default: []

A file names or globs which indicates files to exclude from obfuscation.

`identifierNamesGenerator`

Type: string Default: hexadecimal

Sets identifier names generator.

Available values:

dictionary: identifier names from identifiersDictionary list
hexadecimal: identifier names like _0xabc123
mangled: short identifier names like a, b, c
mangled-shuffled: same as mangled but with shuffled alphabet

`identifiersDictionary`

Type: string[] Default: []

Sets identifiers dictionary for identifierNamesGenerator: dictionary option. Each identifier from the dictionary will be used in a few variants with a different casing of each character. Thus, the number of identifiers in the dictionary should depend on the identifiers amount at original source code.

`identifiersPrefix`

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.

`inputFileName`

Type: string Default: ''

Allows to set name of the input file with source code. This name will be used internally for source map generation.

`log`

Type: boolean Default: false

Enables logging of the information to the console.

`numbersToExpressions`

Type: boolean Default: false

Enables numbers conversion to expressions

Example:

// input
const foo = 1234;

// output
const foo=-0xd93+-0x10b4+0x41*0x67+0x84e*0x3+-0xff8;

`renameGlobals`

Type: boolean Default: false

⚠️ this option can break your code. Enable it only if you know what it does!

Enables obfuscation of global variable and function names with declaration.

`renameProperties`

Type: boolean Default: false

⚠️ this option WILL break your code in most cases. Enable it only if you know what it does!

Enables renaming of property names. All built-in DOM properties and properties in core JavaScript classes will be ignored.

To set format of renamed property names use identifierNamesGenerator option.

To control which properties will be renamed use reservedNames option.

Example:

// input
(function () {
    const foo = {
        prop1: 1,
        prop2: 2,
        calc: function () {
            return this.prop1 + this.prop2;
        }
    };
    
    console.log(foo.calc());
})();

// output
(function () {
    const _0x46529b = {
        '_0x10cec7': 0x1,
        '_0xc1c0ca': 0x2,
        '_0x4b961d': function () {
            return this['_0x10cec7'] + this['_0xc1c0ca'];
        }
    };
    console['log'](_0x46529b['_0x4b961d']());
}());

`reservedNames`

Type: string[] Default: []

Disables obfuscation and generation of identifiers, which being matched by passed RegExp patterns.

Example:

	{
		reservedNames: [
			'^someVariable',
			'functionParameter_\d'
		]
	}

`reservedStrings`

Type: string[] Default: []

Disables transformation of string literals, which being matched by passed RegExp patterns.

Example:

	{
		reservedStrings: [
			'react-native',
			'\.\/src\/test',
			'some-string_\d'
		]
	}

`rotateStringArray`

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.

`seed`

Type: string|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.

`selfDefending`

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 forcibly sets `compact` value to `true`

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.

`shuffleStringArray`

Type: boolean Default: true

⚠️ `stringArray` must be enabled

Randomly shuffles the stringArray array items.

`simplify`

Type: boolean Default: true

Enables additional code obfuscation through simplification.

⚠️ in future releases obfuscation of `boolean` literals (`true` => `!![]`) will be moved under this option.

Example:

// input
if (condition1) {
    const foo = 1;
    const bar = 2;
  
    console.log(foo);
  
    return bar;
} else if (condition2) {
    console.log(1);
    console.log(2);
    console.log(3);
  
    return 4;
} else {
    return 5;
}

// output
if (condition1) {
    const foo = 0x1, bar = 0x2;
    return console['log'](foo), bar;
} else
    return condition2 ? (console['log'](0x1), console['log'](0x2), console['log'](0x3), 0x4) : 0x5;

`sourceMap`

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.

`sourceMapBaseUrl`

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

`sourceMapFileName`

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

`sourceMapMode`

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.

`splitStrings`

Type: boolean Default: false

Splits literal strings into chunks with length of splitStringsChunkLength option value.

Example:

// input
(function(){
    var test = 'abcdefg';
})();

// output
(function(){
    var _0x5a21 = 'ab' + 'cd' + 'ef' + 'g';
})();

`splitStringsChunkLength`

Type: number Default: 10

Sets chunk length of splitStrings option.

`stringArray`

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];

`stringArrayEncoding`

Type: boolean|string Default: false

⚠️ `stringArray` option must be enabled

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): encode stringArray values using base64
false (boolean): don't encode stringArray values
'base64' (string): encode stringArray values using base64
'rc4' (string): encode stringArray values using rc4. About 30-50% slower than base64, but more harder to get initial values. It is recommended to disable unicodeEscapeSequence option with rc4 encoding to prevent very large size of obfuscated code.

`stringArrayThreshold`

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.

`target`

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, but some browser-specific options are not allowed to use with node target. Output code for browser-no-eval target is not using eval.

`transformObjectKeys`

Type: boolean Default: false

Enables transformation of object keys.

Example:

// input
(function(){
    var object = {
        foo: 'test1',
        bar: {
            baz: 'test2'
        }
    };
})();

// output
var _0x2fae = [
    'baz',
    'test2',
    'foo',
    'test1',
    'bar'
];
var _0x377c = function (_0x1fbd3f, _0x59c72f) {
    _0x1fbd3f = _0x1fbd3f - 0x0;
    var _0x14fada = _0x2fae[_0x1fbd3f];
    return _0x14fada;
};
(function () {
    var _0x8a12db = {};
    _0x8a12db[_0x377c('0x0')] = _0x377c('0x1');
    var _0xc75419 = {};
    _0xc75419[_0x377c('0x2')] = _0x377c('0x3');
    _0xc75419[_0x377c('0x4')] = _0x8a12db;
    var _0x191393 = _0xc75419;
}());

`unicodeEscapeSequence`

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

What javascript versions are supported?

es3, es5, es2015, es2016 and es2017

I want to use feature that described in `README.md` but it's not working!

The README on the master branch might not match that of the latest stable release.

Why CLI command not working?

Try to run npm link javascript-obfuscator command or install it globally with npm i -g javascript-obfuscator

Error `maximum call stack size exceeded`

Likely this is selfDefending mechanism. Something is changing source code after obfuscation with selfDefending option.

Online version?

obfuscator.io

JSX support?

No. JSX support isn't planned.

How to change kind of variables of inserted nodes (`var`, `let` or `const`)?

See: Kind of variables

Why I got `null` value instead of `BigInt` number?

BigInt obfuscation works correctly only in environments that support BigInt values. See ESTree spec

I enabled `renameProperties` option, and my code broke! What to do?

Just disable this option.
