piral-cli-webpack5

Piral CLI Webpack5 ·

This plugin enables using Webpack v5 as the bundler for Piral instances and pilets.

Installation

Use your favorite NPM client for the installation:

npm i piral-cli-webpack5 --save-dev

Note: The plugin has to be installed to tell the piral-cli to use Webpack v5 as the default bundler.

Using

There is nothing to do. Standard commands such as piral build or pilet debug will now work with Webpack as the bundler.

This plugin comes with batteries included. You don't need to install or specify your Webpack version.

What's Inside

Right now it includes:

• babel-loader,
• css-loader,
• file-loader,
• source-map-loader,
• sass-loader,
• style-loader,
• ts-loader,
• parcel-codegen-loader,
• import-maps-webpack-plugin,
• html-webpack-plugin,
• mini-css-extract-plugin,
• optimize-css-assets-webpack-plugin,
• terser-webpack-plugin,
• webpack, and
• webpack-dev-server.

As such it should be prepared to include assets (images, videos, ...), stylesheets (CSS and SASS), and work with TypeScript.

Right now the output of this plugin is for the v1 pilet schema only!

No support for the legacy v0 pilet schema.

Customizing

You can still leverage your own webpack.config.js. Either just export what you want to have overwritten, e.g.,

module.exports = {
  devtool: 'inline-source-map',
};

or specify a function that is called with the already created configuration.

An example would be:

module.exports = function(config) {
  config.plugins.push(myAwesomePlugin);
  config.entry.side = ['@babel/polyfill'];
  return config;
};
