bun build: put the imports of an eager import.meta.glob ahead of the file's own imports - #48141
A bundle evaluates the files of an eager import.meta.glob() after the file's own imports, bun run before them. import "./first.ts"; import.meta.glob("./modules/*.ts", { eager: true }); import "./last.ts"; prints a,b,first,last run and first,last,a,b built.
Cause: Parser::_parse (src/js_parser/parse/parse_entry.rs:2040 on main) appends the glob's import parts to before. With tree shaking on, the own imports are already there (:1212).
Fix
place_import_meta_glob_imports (src/js_parser/lower/import_meta_glob.rs) rotates the glob parts behind the linker's reserved part. Only a file with eager glob imports calls it.
Correct: a bundle treats the glob as its import statements written at the top of the file, as Vite does.
Verified (Linux x64): test/bundler/bundler_import_meta_glob.test.ts (19 of 20 new rows fail on main), test/bake/dev-and-prod.test.ts (production fails on main), test/bundler/.
Self-reviewed: 9 concerns raised, 8 addressed. Notes name the other.
Background
A part is one top-level statement. before holds the parts ahead of the file body. In a bundle, before[0] is reserved for the linker.
import.meta.glob (bun test: Vitest compatibility #44833) is in no release. The dev server, treeShaking: false and --compile --aot already have this order.
Considered one rule for all generated imports: it changes the released order of the JSX runtime import.
Downsides
A CommonJS package that the file imports runs before the glob's files under bun run, and behind them in a bundle now.
An external import in ESM output, or an import in a shared chunk, still runs before the glob's files.
.text grows by 1,280 bytes.
Notes
Where it comes from. An automated test of the new feature found it. No user report exists. import.meta.glob is on main since 2026-10-31 and in no release.
Orders, main against this PR. Each module pushes its name when it is evaluated. The entry is import "./first.ts", the eager glob of modules/a.ts and modules/b.ts, import "./last.ts".

The ahead-of-time compiler (#47942, on main since 2596ac5). It expands the glob itself and writes the imports at the head of the file (expand_calls in src/aot/load/import_meta_glob.rs). So on main one entry has two orders: bun build --compile prints first,last,a,b and bun build --compile --aot prints a,b,first,last (canary 2596ac5). Both print a,b,first,last on this branch.
What "correct" means here. The bundle gives an eager glob the order of the same import statements written by hand at the top of the file. Four rows compare a directory with the glob against a directory with the hand-written imports, in layouts where something else decides the order. Both directories print the same on this PR, and differ on main:
an external own import in ESM output: external,a,b,last. The output keeps the import statement and the engine runs it first. CJS output prints a,b,external,last.
an own import in a chunk that another entry point shares: first,a,b,last. A chunk runs as a whole. bun build --app splits and makes every route an entry point, so a module that two routes share runs before the glob's files in production.
The CommonJS row. Under bun run, a CommonJS package that a file imports is evaluated before the ES modules of the file, also for hand-written imports (1.4.3 does the same). A bundle evaluates in statement order. An executable built with --aot keeps the order of bun run (dep,a,b,last, on main and on this branch). So a setup package that the matched files need at load works under bun run and in main's bundle, and throws in this PR's bundle. The docs now name the way out: put the import.meta.glob() call in a module of its own and import that module after the setup. That layout prints first,a,b,last under bun run, bun test and bun build.
The order question. Glob first is what #44833 wrote down: the comment this PR moves ("Glob imports go before the file's own imports"), commit 1c970be of that PR for bun test, and the test "eager entries are evaluated before the other imports of a file" with "Same order as Vitest". #47942 tests it again for the ahead-of-time compiler: test/aot/import-meta-glob.test.ts ("eager entries run before the file that asks for them, in order") expects the files of the glob before import "./order/own.ts", in an --aot executable and under bun test --aot. Vite prepends the imports in importMetaGlob.ts (dev) and in rolldown's rolldown_plugin_vite_import_glob (build). vitejs/vite#21924 asks Vite for source order. If Bun wants source order, two places change together: place_import_meta_glob_imports (runtime and bundler) and expand_calls in src/aot/load/import_meta_glob.rs (ahead-of-time compiler).
Measurements. Release builds of main b1305dd and of this PR, linux x64. valgrind, strace and bloaty are not installed in the build container. The lines name what was used.
no-glob parse: 2 instructions at this block against 42 on main, in both instantiations of _parse (llvm-objdump -d: cmpl, jne against an inline block plus BabyVec::append of an empty list). Whole process, 50,000 transformSync calls: median 158,302,827,128 against 158,304,304,965 user instructions (perf_event_open, 5 interleaved runs). The delta of 1.5M is under the spread of one build (3.2M to 4.2M).
bun test file with lowered imports, no glob: 1 malloc of 768 bytes, 1 free and a 384-byte copy less per parse (gdb breakpoint counts inside _parse: 104 to 103 mi_heap_malloc, 69 to 68 mi_free).
no-glob bundle (bun build scripts/build.ts --target=bun, one worker thread): +0 allocations, +0 syscalls. 122,955 arena allocations of 19,298,517 bytes inside the 73 _parse calls on both builds in 6 of 9 runs. The other runs differ by up to 206 calls, on either build. Syscalls (a ptrace counter): openat 111, read 166, write 76 on both. The totals are 1,015 to 1,150 and move with futex.
release binary: +1,280 bytes of text (size). _parse 27,132 to 26,690 and 32,168 to 31,502 bytes, new helper 892 bytes in each of 2 instantiations (nm -S).
no-glob bundles: 0 differing output files of 4 (2.2 MB: a JSX app as esm, cjs and iife, scripts/build.ts as esm, diff -r). Existing bundler and runtime glob tests: 0 expectations edited.
glob path: the helper costs 1,190,649 instructions at 1,000 matches, 2,353,186 at 2,000 and 4,691,270 at 4,000 (ratios 1.98 and 1.99, linear). perf_event_open counter read from gdb at entry and return, 200 own imports.
order matrix: 19 of 20 new bundler rows fail on main's debug build, 20 of 20 pass on the PR. The 20th is treeShaking: false, which was right already. The dev-and-prod row fails on main in production (first,last,a,b) and passes in both modes on the PR.
Not changed here, with the owner.
A require() that becomes an import (require("react")) runs ahead of the file's own imports when the file is one part (treeShaking: false, or a lowered using). It reproduces on 1.4.3 with no glob. Reported separately. The ...NoTreeShaking row pins only the glob's two files for that reason.
const DEBUG = false; if (DEBUG) import.meta.glob(..., { eager: true }) and Object["keys"](import.meta.glob(..., { eager: true })) import under plain bun build and not under bun run or --minify. A different mechanism (which calls import at all). Reported separately.
The other generated imports (JSX runtime, React Compiler, React Refresh) keep their released, esbuild-matching place behind the own imports of a bundle.
Conflicts.#38012 adds a debug_assert! one line above the block this PR replaces in parse_entry.rs. It goes above the new if. #48072 edits the next docs bullet. #48055 changes plan_import, which the helper calls with the same arguments.
Self-review. Nine concerns: the docs promised an evaluation order, the CommonJS own import, the dev stylesheet order, siblings without an owner, a rotate no test could tell from a wrong one, --splitting rows, multi-route --app, an external import per format, and a two-line comment. The lowered arm is now main's code moved as it is, so only the bundle rotate is new, and rows with unequal counts cover it (two, duplicate). Not done: a row for an external import in CJS output, because the ESM twin row covers the mechanism and the matrix covers CJS.
Other suites on the PR's debug build.test/bundler/ (163 files): 39 failures, all timeouts of --compile, bytecode, AOT and stress tests in a debug build, none in a test that uses import.meta.glob. Spot checks on main's debug build fail the same way or pass on a second run. test/js/bun/resolve/import-meta-glob.test.ts passes 399 of 399 on both release builds when the machine is idle, and times out in the same tests on both debug builds. test/bake/dev/import-meta-glob.test.ts and test/js/bun/test/mock/mock-hoist.test.ts pass. test/aot/runner-suites/bundler-10.test.ts runs the bundler test file with each child run compiled ahead of time. With its preload, the TargetBun row passes on a debug build of daea22f. A full pass of that part on the debug build is not clean: 5 child runs stop in the ahead-of-time compiler with the crash of #48169 and 3 reach the 60 s limit, in rows of main and of this PR.

…file's own imports
When tree shaking is on, the parser has already moved the own import
statements of a file into the parts ahead of the file body. The import
statements that an eager import.meta.glob() generates were appended behind
them. A bundle then evaluated the matched files after the file's own imports.
The runtime transpiler, the dev server and a build with `treeShaking: false`
put them ahead, as Vite does.
place_import_meta_glob_imports now owns the placement. When bundling, it
rotates the glob parts to the position behind the part that is reserved for
the linker. A bundle then treats an eager glob as its import statements
written at the top of the file. The rules of the stylesheet of a browser
build follow the same order.
Reproduced on a debug build of main (b1305dd) and on the canary of main (2596ac5). import "./first.ts"; import.meta.glob("./modules/*.ts", { eager: true }); import "./last.ts"; prints a,b,first,last under bun entry.ts, and first,last,a,b after bun build ./entry.ts --outfile=o.js && bun o.js. No release has import.meta.glob, so the released binary cannot show it.
On main's debug build, 19 of the 20 new rows in test/bundler/bundler_import_meta_glob.test.ts fail, and so does the production run of the new row in test/bake/dev-and-prod.test.ts. On a debug build of this branch (daea22f, Linux x64), the two files pass 43 of 43 and 14 of 14 tests.
CI on 2de3ee2 failed in one test because of this PR. A fixture of the new TargetBun row was not valid TypeScript (TS2308), and test/aot/runner-suites/bundler-10.test.ts compiles that row ahead of time. daea22f corrects the fixture. In the run for daea22f (build 138483) no job has failed: 184 passed. The other 4 are the macOS x64 test jobs. They have not started: the queue for those machines is long (at 04:08 UTC they ran builds 138464 to 138467), and the jobs expired twice while they waited. The two test files of this PR pass there on Windows 2019 x64, Windows 11 aarch64 and macOS aarch64 (43 of 43 and 14 of 14). Two other tests failed once in a parallel batch and passed when they ran alone: test/js/bun/http/bun-serve-html.test.ts and test/js/bun/jsonl/jsonl-parse-chunk-utf8.test.ts. This PR does not touch what they test. The first one does the same on main (builds 138109 and 137628).
A fact for that question: an executable built with --aot (AOT: front end, test runs and tests for the rewritten compiler #47942) already runs the glob's files first. On main, bun build --compile prints first,last,a,b and bun build --compile --aot prints a,b,first,last for the entry above. On this branch both print a,b,first,last.
The parser now places generated eager import.meta.glob imports in the appropriate import collections. Documentation describes their placement, and regression tests check evaluation and stylesheet ordering across several bundling and loading configurations.

Summary
Place generated glob imports src/js_parser/lower/import_meta_glob.rs, src/js_parser/parse/parse_entry.rs, docs/runtime/module-resolution.mdx
_parse delegates generated glob import placement to place_import_meta_glob_imports. The method classifies imports and updates the pre-import and lowered-import collections. The documentation describes their placement above the file’s other imports.
Tests check eager glob evaluation order across import positions, output configurations, and loading paths. They also check stylesheet output and compare glob ordering with explicit imports.

Beyond the inline findings, I checked the extraction into place_import_meta_glob_imports against the old inline loop in parse_entry.rs: the new is_empty() guard is equivalent (the old path was a no-op with no glob imports), and the rotate_right slice is safe because before[0] is always pushed first in bundle mode and the non-bundle import_meta_glob_definition insert at index 0 never runs alongside the rotation.
Extended reasoning...
The change moves the eager import.meta.glob import placement into a cold helper and adds a bundle-only rotation so glob parts sit right after the linker's reserved part, plus a docs bullet and a large itBundled matrix. No security-sensitive surface. The refactor is behaviour-preserving and the rotation is bounds-safe, but the inline findings concern the evaluation-order policy (CJS setup packages now run after glob files in a bundle; dev-server stylesheet order coupling), which the author also flags as needing a maintainer decision.

🔴 A bundle now evaluates eager-glob files before a CommonJS package the file imports, so code like import "reflect-metadata"; import.meta.glob("./entities/*.ts", { eager: true }) throws after bun build while it works under bun run and in a base-branch bundle. The rotation at import_meta_glob.rs:1142 moves the glob parts ahead of every own-import part, including one the linker turns into a require_dep() call, which bun run evaluates first. This follows from the PR's stated purpose; the PR text calls it a downside. Fix: a bundle should keep the imports that become require_*() calls ahead of the glob's parts, matching bun run (dep,a,b,last), or the feature needs a maintainer decision before merge. [also at: test/bundler/bundler_import_meta_glob.test.ts:207 - Users who bundle a file with a setup import such as import "reflect-metadata" written above an eager import.meta.glob() now get the globbed modules evaluated before that package, which bun run and the base bundle both run first.]
Why this was flagged
A file has import "dep" (a CommonJS package) followed by an eager import.meta.glob() whose matched modules use what dep sets up at load. In bun build, parse_entry.rs:1212 puts the own import parts in before, then place_import_meta_glob_imports appends the glob parts and import_meta_glob.rs:1142 rotates them to directly after index 0, ahead of the dep part. The linker emits the file's parts in that order, so the output calls init_a(), init_b() before require_dep(). The PR's own test EagerEntriesAreEvaluatedBeforeACommonJSImport pins the bundle at app modules/a, app modules/b, dep, app last and its comment states bun run prints dep first. On the base branch the bundle evaluates dep,last,a,b, so a matched module that reads dep's globals at load works on base and under bun run, and throws in the merged bundle. The docs bullet (module-resolution.mdx:482) offers a layout change as the only workaround; nothing in the code warns at build time.
Verification: The new helper appends each glob import as its own part to before and, when self.options.bundle, rotates them to directly after index 0 (src/js_parser/lower/import_meta_glob.rs:1140-1143), ahead of the import "dep" part that the linker turns into a require_dep() call. On the base commit the glob parts were appended at the end of before, so the base bundle ran dep first (dep,last,a,b).

The description of the effect is correct, and the PR lists it under Downsides. I did not add a rule that keeps such imports ahead of the glob's parts. The reasons:
The parser places the parts, and it does not know which import becomes a require_*() call. The kind of the imported file is known at link time.
The difference between bun run and a bundle for a CommonJS import is not specific to a glob. I ran the same statements written by hand, with dep as a CommonJS package, on release builds of main and of this branch:
bun run prints dep,a,b,last. bun build prints a,b,dep,last on both builds. With the glob in place of the first two lines, this branch prints the same two results. Main's bundle printed dep,last,a,b.
A linker rule for the import records of a glob only would make a glob differ from the imports that it stands for. The test EagerEntriesAreEvaluatedBeforeACommonJSImport pins the bundle order, and its comment names what bun run does.
So this finding is the order question itself: the glob's files first (what #44833 chose for the runtime, and what Vite does today), or source order (what vitejs/vite#21924 asks for). With source order, import "reflect-metadata" above a glob works in a bundle and under bun run, also when the setup file is an ES module. Today an ES module setup file above the glob runs after the glob's files under bun run on main.
That choice belongs to a maintainer. If the answer is source order, the runtime and the bundler change together in place_import_meta_glob_imports, and I do that in this PR. I leave this thread open for the decision.
The reason will be displayed to describe this comment to others. Learn more.
One more data point for this decision, from the canary of main (2596ac5) and a debug build of this branch (daea22f). The entry is import "dep", the eager glob of modules/a.ts and modules/b.ts, import "./last.ts". The second entry has the same imports written by hand at the top: a.ts, b.ts, dep, last.ts.

An executable built with --aot (#47942) keeps the order of bun run, so the package runs first there. The plain bundle of the glob now prints what the plain bundle of the hand-written imports prints. The difference between bun run and a plain bundle for a CommonJS package exists with no glob, on main too.
…et order comes from
The row for a require() that becomes an import compared only the first two
lines of the output. It now also compares the whole set of lines.
The comment of the dev-and-prod row says which mechanism gives the order of
the stylesheets in each mode.
Correction first. From about 19:50 to 19:54 UTC the description of this PR contained a GitHub API error message and not the description. My edit of the description caused that: a read of the old text failed on the rate limit, and the write that followed used the failed result. The description is restored. I compared it with the text that I wrote. One line at the end (the automated test-proof note) is restored from the one line of it that I had seen. If it had more lines, the next automated run writes them again.
Review findings, and what I did with each.
test/bundler/bundler_import_meta_glob.test.ts, the ...NoTreeShaking row compared only the first two lines: fixed in e6be6a5. The row now also compares the whole set of lines.
Description headings: I kept the Problem, Fix, Background and Downsides sections. They contain what the template asks for (what the PR does, and how it is verified).
A CommonJS package that a file imports above the glob now runs after the glob's files in a bundle (the finding at import_meta_glob.rs:1142). This is correct as a description, and the PR lists it under Downsides. I did not add a rule that keeps such imports first, for two reasons:
The parser does not know which import becomes a require_*() call. The kind of the imported file is known at link time.
The same statements written by hand give the same result with no glob. import "./modules/a.ts"; import "./modules/b.ts"; import "dep"; import "./last.ts"; prints dep,a,b,last under bun run and a,b,dep,last after bun build, on main and on this branch. A rule for the records of a glob only would make the glob differ from the imports that it stands for.
What remains is the order itself: the glob's files first (what bun test: Vitest compatibility #44833 chose and what Vite does today) or source order (what Non-intuitive side-effects when using import.meta.glob with eager vitejs/vite#21924 asks for, and what keeps import "reflect-metadata" above a glob working in a bundle). Under bun run on main, an ES module setup file above the glob already runs after the glob's files. A maintainer must decide this. I leave that thread open.
The dev-and-prod row passes in development only because the dev server walks the import records in reverse (the finding at test/bake/dev-and-prod.test.ts:173). Correct. I kept the assertion, because it states what must hold in both modes: the stylesheets of the glob are ahead of the file's own. It does not pin the reversed order inside the group. The comment in the test now says which mechanism gives the order in each mode (e6be6a5).
If you have decided not to act on one of these findings, resolve its thread (a reply alone leaves it open) and the next review stops counting it. To review this commit again now, use Re-run on its "Claude Code Review" check.

It expands the glob itself and writes the imports at the head of the file (
expand_callsinsrc/aot/load/import_meta_glob.rs). So on main one entry has two orders:bun build --compileprintsfirst,last,a,bandbun build --compile --aotprintsa,b,first,last(canary 2596ac5). Both printa,b,first,laston this branch.What "correct" means here. The bundle gives an eager glob the order of the same import statements written by hand at the top of the file. Four rows compare a directory with the glob against a directory with the hand-written imports, in layouts where something else decides the order. Both directories print the same on this PR, and differ on main:
require():b,first,last,a. The wrapper callsrequire_a()behind everyinit_b(). bundler: keep source order in a wrapper prefix that has no async dependency #41601 changes that for every import.import():b,first,last,a. The wrapper awaits it behind the other calls, by design since fix(build): Promise.all() async module dependencies #22704.external,a,b,last. The output keeps theimportstatement and the engine runs it first. CJS output printsa,b,external,last.first,a,b,last. A chunk runs as a whole.bun build --appsplits and makes every route an entry point, so a module that two routes share runs before the glob's files in production.The CommonJS row. Under
bun run, a CommonJS package that a file imports is evaluated before the ES modules of the file, also for hand-written imports (1.4.3 does the same). A bundle evaluates in statement order. An executable built with--aotkeeps the order ofbun run(dep,a,b,last, on main and on this branch). So a setup package that the matched files need at load works underbun runand in main's bundle, and throws in this PR's bundle. The docs now name the way out: put theimport.meta.glob()call in a module of its own and import that module after the setup. That layout printsfirst,a,b,lastunderbun run,bun testandbun build.The order question. Glob first is what #44833 wrote down: the comment this PR moves ("Glob imports go before the file's own imports"), commit 1c970be of that PR for
bun test, and the test "eager entries are evaluated before the other imports of a file" with "Same order as Vitest". #47942 tests it again for the ahead-of-time compiler:test/aot/import-meta-glob.test.ts("eager entries run before the file that asks for them, in order") expects the files of the glob beforeimport "./order/own.ts", in an--aotexecutable and underbun test --aot. Vite prepends the imports inimportMetaGlob.ts(dev) and in rolldown'srolldown_plugin_vite_import_glob(build). vitejs/vite#21924 asks Vite for source order. If Bun wants source order, two places change together:place_import_meta_glob_imports(runtime and bundler) andexpand_callsinsrc/aot/load/import_meta_glob.rs(ahead-of-time compiler).Measurements.

Nine concerns: the docs promised an evaluation order, the CommonJS own import, the dev stylesheet order, siblings without an owner, a rotate no test could tell from a wrong one,
--splittingrows, multi-route--app, an external import per format, and a two-line comment. The lowered arm is now main's code moved as it is, so only the bundle rotate is new, and rows with unequal counts cover it (two,duplicate).
