Preconfigured webpack packaged as library.
Instead of cloning some "boilerplate project", install this as dev dependency and easily start
your frontend project.
Install re-app-builder into your project or start in an empty directory!
$ yarn add --dev re-app-builder
Add re-app-builder script to your package.json
// package.json
{
"scripts": {
"re-app-builder": "node ./node_modules/re-app-builder/bin"
}
}
Extend your .babelrc like this, create it if you don't have one already.
// .babelrc
{
"extends": "re-app-builder/configs/.babelrc"
}
Create your webpack.config.js.
// webpack.config.js
// This config is webpack-compatible
// and overrides the defaults provided by re-app-builder
module.exports = function () {
return {
entry: { // webpack compatible entry section
app: [
'./src'
]
},
excludedModules: [ // you can exclude modules from vendor bundle to avoid conflicts
'koa',
'koa-ejs'
],
}
};
With the configuration above, ./src/index.js will be used as an entry point of your app
and ./public/build/app.js will be generated as an output.
Start development server by running the script you added earlier with dev command
$ npm run re-app-builder dev
Profit. Whenever you change source code, the app is automatically reloaded. The app is served at 127.0.0.1:8080 in default html template
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
... snip ...
</head>
<body>
<div id="root"></div> <!-- for example mount your react app here -->
... snip ...
</body>
</html>
Or you can just use generated bundle in your own template:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/build/app.js
that file is not actually created on disk and is only served from memory by webpack. To generate static production build, do
$ npm run re-app-builder build
it will create minified static files ./public/build/app.js and ./public/build/app.css
Whenever you need the static build but non-minified, set NODE_ENV=development
$ NODE_ENV=development npm run re-app-builder build
