webpack-sane-compiler-reporter

library3.3.2jsnpmunverified

A reporter library for the webpack-sane-compiler that provides pretty, customizable console output for webpack compilation events (start, success, failure, invalidate, stats). Version 3.3.2 is the latest stable release. It is designed specifically for webpack-sane-compiler (peer dependency >=2.0.0 <4.0.0) and offers hooks to customize each message type, with defaults that print to stderr. Unlike generic webpack reporters, it integrates tightly with the sane compiler API, supporting features like stats display (true, false, 'once') and fine-grained event-level formatting.

Code

Verified usage

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

default

✓ import startReporting from 'webpack-sane-compiler-reporter'

✗ const { startReporting } = require('webpack-sane-compiler-reporter')

This package exports a single function as default. In CommonJS, use require('webpack-sane-compiler-reporter') and call it.

startReporting

✓ const startReporting = require('webpack-sane-compiler-reporter');

✗ import { startReporting } from 'webpack-sane-compiler-reporter'

CommonJS requires the whole module; ES import uses default import, not named.

startReporting (returned object)

✓ const { stop, options } = startReporting(compiler, {/* options */});

✗ const stop = startReporting(compiler, {}).stop

The function returns an object with 'stop' and 'options'. Destructure both at once.

Shows how to create a SaneCompiler instance, attach the reporter with custom options, and run a compilation.

import startReporting from 'webpack-sane-compiler-reporter'; import SaneCompiler from 'webpack-sane-compiler'; import webpack from 'webpack'; const config = { /* webpack config */ }; const compiler = new SaneCompiler(webpack(config)); const { stop, options } = startReporting(compiler, { stats: 'once' }); compiler.run((err, stats) => { if (err) console.error(err); // Reports are printed automatically stop(); });

Debug

Known issues

breakingv3.0.0 changed the API: the function now returns { stop, options } instead of just stop.

fix

Update code to destructure stop and options from the return value.

affects: >=3.0.0 <4.0.0

breakingv2.0.0 removed the 'verbose' option; use 'stats' option instead.

fix

Replace verbose: true with stats: 'once' or stats: true.

affects: >=2.0.0 <3.0.0

deprecatedThe 'printStart', 'printSuccess', etc. custom functions are deprecated in favor of a single 'printer' option? (Check docs).

fix

Refer to latest documentation; if not confirmed, use the object-style customization.

affects: >=3.3.0

gotchaThe reporter prints to stderr by default. To capture output, provide a custom 'write' function.

fix

Specify write: (msg) => process.stdout.write(msg) to redirect to stdout.

affects: *

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: startReporting is not a function

Using ES import incorrectly: import { startReporting } from '...' instead of default import.

fix

Use import startReporting from 'webpack-sane-compiler-reporter' or const startReporting = require('...')

Cannot find module 'webpack-sane-compiler'

Missing peer dependency 'webpack-sane-compiler'.

fix

Install the peer dependency: npm install webpack-sane-compiler

options.stats should be a boolean or 'once'

Provided an invalid value for stats option (e.g., 'verbose').

fix

Set stats to true, false, or 'once'.
