Module Config

export interface IOptions {
  mode?: 'run' | 'watch' | 'devServer';
}
export type ConfigFileContent =
  | ((
      { context, options }: { context: string; options: object },
    ) => Webpack.Configuration | Webpack.Configuration[] | Promise<Webpack.Configuration | Webpack.Configuration[]>)
  | Webpack.Configuration
  | Webpack.Configuration[];
export type SingleConfig = /* path to configFile */ string | ConfigFileContent;
export type Config = ['webpack', SingleConfig | SingleConfig[], IOptions | undefined];

Usage

const config1 = ['webpack', 'sompath/webpack.config.js']; // config file
const config2 = ['webpack', ['sompath/webpack.app.js', 'sompath/webpack.page.js']]; // MultiCompiler
const config3 = ['webpack', { entry: './src/index.js', ...otherWebpackConfig }]; // raw config
const config4 = ['webpack', { watch: true, ...o }]; // watch mode
const config5 = ['webpack', { devServer: { ...d }, ...o }]; // devServer mode
const config6 = ['webpack', { devServer: { ...d }, ...o }, { mode: 'run' }]; // run mode (ignore devServer)

Mode

there are 3 modes now

  • webpack run
  • webpack watch
  • webpack-dev-server

if mode is not set, module-webpack will decide it directly from the final config.

  1. config.devServer is truthy => webpack-dev-server
  2. config.watch is truthy => webpack watch source files and changes triggers recompile
  3. else => simple webpack build

Function Type Webpack Config

Webpack supports exporting a function as a config. But its hard to use.

Therefore, module-webpack replace that support with a more advanced solution.

Instead of function (env, argv) {} from native webapck, module-webapck supports function ({ context, options }) {}

  • string context is the project root (context in nowa2)
  • object options is the nowa options from your command line arguments, config and solution

Examples

nowa2 xxxx --language en --multiPage true
const config1 = [
  'webpack',
  {
    config: ({ context, options }) => ({
      context,
      entry: `./src/index.${options.language}.js`, // ./src/index.en.js
      ...otherWebpackConfig,
    }),
  },
];
const config2 = ['webpack', 'sompath/webpack.config.js'];

with sompath/webpack.config.js

module.exports = async ({ context, options }) => {
  if (option.multiPage /* true */) {
    // ...
  }
  // ...
};

Overwrite Final Webpack Config

In some cases we need modify webpack config, but we cannot change nowa soltion directly (in a npm package).

We can create a webpack.config.js in project root. In this file you can access then final webpack config and return a new one to replace it.

This file can export a fucntion, the function signature is function (originalConfig, rumtime, webpack) {}

  • originalConfig is the final config generated by nowa, will be passed to webpack soon
  • runtime is a object with properties
    • string context
    • object options
    • Array commands is the actual command you type
      e.g. nowa2 build prod => ['build', 'prod']
    • object config is the module config for module-webpack in you solution

it also supports specify which command the overwrite will take place like config / solution

Examples

module.exports = (config, rumtime, webpack) => {
  // overwrite all command using module-webpack
  config.plugins.push(new webpack.SomeBuiltinPlugin());
  return config;
};
module.exports = {
  // export an object instead of fucntion
  build: [
    (config, rumtime, webpack) => {
      // overwrite on build command only
      config.plugins.push(new webpack.SomeBuiltinPlugin());
      return config;
    },
  ],
  dev: [
    (config, rumtime, webpack) => {
      // overwrite on dev command only
      config.plugins.push(new webpack.SomeOtherBuiltinPlugin());
      return config;
    },
  ],
};
