Fix for issue #43

[nicholaslee119]

@mppperez Thanks for your work!
I check out your repo and built it locally, It seems to work well itself and return right { ast: ast } But, after passing the { ast: ast } to Metro, I can not get right bundle.js which should be obfuscated by this plugin.

hi @nicholaslee119, could u provide a sample? I've just compared the bundle.js of my previous app version with old javascript obfuscator with the new one and it looks fine for me (only obfuscating app code not the third party libraries).

this discussion may be better in an own issue here referencing this PR.

best regards

Perfect, this branch fixes the problems. The obfuscating is good but the application crashes on startup :

What is the progress on this PR? I am also encountering this issue when bundling my app. @mppperez @nicholaslee119

[mppperez]

Unfortunately I do not have permission to merge the PR or make a release. You would need to apply the changes manually for now if you want to continue to use this lib.

I guess this will be my last PR for this as well (had another one for fixes with RN > 0.59) since it seems like this project won't be ressurected anymore although there are still many ppl left using it. Any suggestion for a good alternative are welcome ... probably ending up using javascript-obfuscator directly as already mentioned in #15

@sanex3339 could this be merged? I've been running it in my app using a private fork for months with no issues

[sanex3339]

I can merge it but i can't release it

Who can release it? @ds300 can you?
