New in Eleventy Bundle v3.0.4: a new option to populate per-route bundles with content right out of your HTML.
https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-plugin-bundle
Here’s an example that puts all `<style>` element content into a `css` bundle:

*Finally* on the docs: how to add Sass to your Eleventy project https://www.11ty.dev/docs/languages/sass/

2025-04-16 17:18:02 UTC

Eleventy v3.0 requires Node 18+ but perhaps interestingly we also have a secondary Node minimum for friendly error messaging.
You can read a little bit more about our secondary Node 10+ minimum here: https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/issues/3761

@nprofile…93s3 I don’t think this is 11ty specific but it sounds like you just want to use Node’s fs package https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/fs.html#fsreadfilesyncpath-options (maybe in a universal shortcode or filter)

@nprofile…ma3g what kind of hosting site? is it a different image optimization provider?
I think you could probably do this with `dryRun` and the `buffer` property that’s included in the stats but that’s diving _pretty_ deep.
I’m guessing you want to subscribe to https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-img/issues/248 which would be a cleaner solution moving forward

@nprofile…h9v5 I think our previous discussion was around limiting API calls right? That’s pretty data-source specific.
I did update this package since we last talked and the `--within` CLI param as of v1.0.14 reuses this value in WordPress API calls: https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-import/releases/tag/v1.0.14
If you need it for other import types, those will have to be added on a per-data-source basis
