webpack-defaults

library4.0.0jsnpmunverified

Tooling to synchronize boilerplate configurations and project scaffolding across webpack ecosystem projects. Current stable version is v6.3.0 (December 2019) with irregular release cadence (multiple minor releases per month). Key differentiators: it is the official webpack-contrib scaffolding tool, providing a single source of truth for CI, linting, testing, and npm scripts. Alternatives like create-react-app or vue-cli are more opinionated for specific frameworks. Requires webpack ^4.3.0 as peer dependency. Last release v6.3.0; development appears stalled since late 2019.

Code

Verified usage

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

defaults

✓ import defaults from '@webpack-contrib/defaults'

✗ const defaults = require('@webpack-contrib/defaults')

Package is ESM-only; no CommonJS support. Named exports may not exist.

runDefaults

✓ import { runDefaults } from '@webpack-contrib/defaults'

✗ const runDefaults = require('@webpack-contrib/defaults').runDefaults

If runDefaults is exported; check documentation. CJS require may return undefined.

config

✓ import { config } from '@webpack-contrib/defaults'

✗ const config = require('@webpack-contrib/defaults/config')

Do not try to import from subpath; all exports are from main entry.

Shows install and execution of the defaults command to sync webpack project boilerplate configurations.

npm install @webpack-contrib/defaults --save-dev # After install, add a script to package.json manually or run: npm run defaults # The 'defaults' npm script is automatically added to your package.json during install. # To sync configurations: node -e "import('@webpack-contrib/defaults').then(m => m.runDefaults())"
