webpack4中uglifyjs-webpack-plugin失效的可能原因之一

module.exports = {

  devServer: {
    port: 3000,
    progress: true,

    compress: true
  },
  mode: 'production',
  entry: './src/index.js',
  output: {
    filename: 'bundle.js',
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist')
  },
  plugins: [
    new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
      template: './src/index.html',
      filename: 'index.html',
      minify: {
        removeAttributeQuotes: true,
        collapseInlineTagWhitespace: true
      },

    }),
    new MiniCssExtractPlugin({
      filename: 'main.css'
    }),
    new OptimizeCss()
  ],
  module: {
    rules: [{
        test: /\.css$/,
        use: [MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader, 'css-loader', 'postcss-loader',

        ]
      },
      {
        test: /\.less$/,
        use: [
          MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader,


          'css-loader',
          'postcss-loader',
          "less-loader" // compiles Less to CSS
        ]
      },
    ]

  },
  optimization: {
    minimizer: [new UglifyJsPlugin()],
  },
}

其中的mode要设置为production才可以，如果是development,则没有压缩js的效果。
