dynamic-public-path

this plugin is to allow webpack to use publicPath value that isn't known at build time.

This generate a boot file which allows you to load bundles from other projects built with webpack at runtime.

It is extremely helpful when you prepare a build for library with multiple entry points allowing you to load library chunks on demand.

or if you are trying to show views from multiple apps into a single app. (instead of exposing child app as npm module & adding to your app at build time, you can use them directly at runtime)

For now it works with options library & libraryTarget as 'umd'

install

npm install dynamic-public-path

example

let say we want to publish MyLibrary which expose 2 bundles a.js & b.js

a.js

export default {value:10}

b.js

export default {value:20}

library.webpack.config.js

 const DynamicPublicPathPlugin = require('dynamic-public-path');
 const config = {
  entry: {
    a: ['a.js'],
    b: ['b.js']
  },
  output: {
    path: __dirname + '/lib',
    filename: '[name].js',
    chunkFilename: '[id].[chunkhash].js',
    library: ['ab', '[name]'],
    libraryTarget: 'umd'
  },
  plugins:[
    new DynamicPublicPathPlugin({
        outputPath: './lib',
        bootfilename:'my-library.js'
        global: 'MyLibrary', // gobal variable to access library
        publicPath: 'window.publicPath'
    })
  ]
 }

above build will create my-library.js under the lib folder

Add my-library.js into other project via script tag

index.html

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">

</head>
<body>
  <div class="container">
    <div id="app">Loading...</div>
	</div>
</body>
</html>

app.js

import MyLibrary from 'MyLibrary'

// set public path 
window.publicPath= 'https://test-app/static/';

//or use configure function
/*
* MyLibrary.configure({publicPath:'https://test-app/static/'})
*/

MyLibrary.import('a').then((module)=>{
console.log(module) // {value :10}
})
MyLibrary.import('b').then((module)=>{
console.log(module) // {value :20}
})
