Remove code between comments with grunt uglify

Is it possible to remove code between special comments with grunt uglify in javascript?

For example js code like this:

Source code:

var that = this;
var x=y;
//REMOVE-BEGIN
that.someCodeToBeRemoved();
that.someMoreCodeToBeRemoved();
//REMOVE-END
that.someFunctionCall();

What should be removed:

//REMOVE-BEGIN
that.someCodeToBeRemoved();
that.someMoreCodeToBeRemoved();
//REMOVE-END
Solution

  • You can use grunt-strip-code for this.

    I don't think grunt uglify can do it.
