external loader for webpack

Usage

Documentation: Using loaders

var url = require("external-loader!./file.json");
// => emits a require to ./file.json on filesystem, and adds it to external resources
// => returns `require("/project/path/file.json")`

If name param is provided, resouce is copied to public directory, just like file-loader.

You can specify module system explicitly by setting libraryTarget param.

You can override publicPath by setting publicPath param.

Filename templates

If running with copy=1 parameter, external resource is copied to the public directory.

You can configure a custom filename template for your file using the query parameter name. For instance, to copy a file from your context directory into the output directory retaining the full directory structure, you might use ?name=[path][name].[ext].

Filename template placeholders

  • [ext] the extension of the resource
  • [name] the basename of the resource
  • [path] the path of the resource relative to the context query parameter or option.
  • [hash] the hash or the content
  • [<hashType>:hash:<digestType>:<length>] optionally you can configure
    • other hashTypes, i. e. sha1, md5, sha256, sha512
    • other digestTypes, i. e. hex, base26, base32, base36, base49, base52, base58, base62, base64
    • and length the length in chars
  • [N] the N-th match obtained from matching the current file name against the query param regExp

Examples

require("external-loader?name=js/[hash].script.[ext]!./javascript.js");
// => require("public_path/0dcbbaa701328a3c262cfd45869e351f.script.js")
 
require("external-loader?name=js/[hash].script.[ext]&publicPath=./foobar!./javascript.js");
// => require("./foobar/0dcbbaa701328a3c262cfd45869e351f.script.js")
 
require("file?name=html-[hash:6].html!./javascript.js");
// => require("/path/to/project/javascript.js");
