What is shakapacker?

Shakapacker is a modern JavaScript and asset bundler for Ruby on Rails applications. It leverages Webpack to manage and compile JavaScript, CSS, and other assets, making it easier to integrate modern front-end tools and frameworks into Rails projects.

What are shakapacker's main functionalities?

JavaScript Bundling

Shakapacker allows you to bundle JavaScript files using Webpack. The code sample demonstrates a basic Webpack configuration for bundling JavaScript files in a Rails application.

module.exports = {
  entry: './app/javascript/packs/application.js',
  output: {
    filename: 'bundle.js',
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'public/packs')
  }
};

CSS and Asset Management

Shakapacker can manage CSS and other assets like images. The code sample shows how to configure Webpack to handle CSS files and image assets using appropriate loaders.

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.css$/,
        use: ['style-loader', 'css-loader']
      },
      {
        test: /\.(png|svg|jpg|gif)$/,
        use: ['file-loader']
      }
    ]
  }
};

Hot Module Replacement (HMR)

Shakapacker supports Hot Module Replacement (HMR) for a better development experience. The code sample configures Webpack's dev server to enable HMR, allowing modules to be updated in the browser without a full reload.

module.exports = {
  devServer: {
    contentBase: path.join(__dirname, 'public'),
    hot: true
  }
};
