Customize webpack configuration

If you include a webpack.config.js file in your project root, superdevpack will pick it up and merge it into its default configuration. You can either export an object to merge, or a function to replace the configuration.

// webpack.config.js

module.exports = {} // object contents are merged into base configuration

module.exports = function(config) {
  // override/replace any configuration and return the new configuration
  return config
}

Use with existing Express app

Calling superdevpack() will return an Express app ready to handle webpack and hot module reloads. Use this if you need to integrate into an existing application.

var superdevpack = require('superdevpack')

var app = superdevpack({
  middleware: [],            // middleware to prepend
  fallback: '/index.html',   // file to load if nothing matches
  static: true               // load static assets from config.output.path
})
app.listen(3000)
