webpack-configurator

library0.3.1jsnpmunverified

A helper library for creating and extending Webpack configuration structures (v0.3.1, last release 2015). It provides methods to merge configs, add/remove loaders and plugins with key-based differentiation, and use resolvers for final transformations. Key differentiators include support for function-based merging, pre/post loader management, and plugin removal. However, it is outdated and incompatible with Webpack 2+ due to breaking API changes. No known recent development.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

configure

✓ import configure from 'webpack-configurator'

✗ const { configure } = require('webpack-configurator')

Default export is a factory function.

WebpackConfigurator

✓ import WebpackConfigurator from 'webpack-configurator'

✗ const WebpackConfigurator = require('webpack-configurator').default

Default import works with both ESM and CJS in Node.

configure

✓ const configure = require('webpack-configurator')

✗ const { configure } = require('webpack-configurator')

CJS require returns the default export, not a named export.

Demonstrates creating a configurator, merging config, adding loaders and plugins, removing loaders, and resolving the final Webpack configuration.

import configure from 'webpack-configurator'; const config = configure(); // Merge base config config.merge({ entry: './src/index.js', output: { path: __dirname + '/dist', filename: 'bundle.js' } }); // Add a loader config.loader('babel', { test: /\.js$/, exclude: /node_modules/, loader: 'babel-loader' }); // Add a plugin config.plugin('uglify', { plugin: require('webpack').optimize.UglifyJsPlugin }); // Remove a loader config.removeLoader('babel'); // Resolve final config const webpackConfig = config.resolve(); console.log(webpackConfig);

Known issues

deprecatedThis package is unmaintained and only compatible with Webpack 1.x. Webpack 2+ has breaking changes (e.g., module.rules instead of module.loaders).

fix

Use webpack-merge or manual config composition for modern Webpack.

affects: all

gotchaThe .plugin() method expects an object with a 'plugin' key (the constructor), not an instance. Passing an instance may cause unexpected behavior.

fix

Use { plugin: PluginConstructor } instead of new PluginConstructor().

affects: all

gotchaWhen merging with a function, you must return the modified config object. Forgetting to return will result in undefined.

fix

Always return the config object from merge functions.

affects: >=0.0.2

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'webpack-configurator'

Package is not installed or npm install failed.

fix

Run: npm install webpack-configurator@0.3.1

config.plugin is not a function

Using an incompatible version (pre-v0.0.2) or wrong import method.

fix

Ensure package version >=0.0.2 and import the default export correctly.

TypeError: config.merge is not a function

Incorrect import: using named import instead of default.

fix

Use 'import configure from 'webpack-configurator'' then call configure().merge()
