post-compile-webpack-plugin

Yo dawg! I put a compiler in your compiler, so you can compile while after you compile!

This plugin enables you to start another compile step with access to the output of the main compilation.

For example, if your current webpack setup generates dist/lib.js, with this plugin you can configure a child compilation step that executes after dist/lib.js has been built, so you can require() it.

Usage

The plugin expects a webpack configuration object during initialization. Currently only entry, output and plugins are supported. In addition to that, the child compilation inherits the configuration of the main compilation.

Example:

const PostCompilePlugin = require( 'post-compile-webpack-plugin' );
const path = require( 'path' );

module.exports = {
  entry: {
    lib: './index.js'
  },
  output: {
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
    filename: '[name].js'
  },
  plugins: [
    new PostCompilePlugin({
      entry: {
        example1: './examples/example1.js',
        example2: './examples/example2.js'
      }
    })
  ]
};
