function-wrap-loader

function-wrap-loader for webpack

webpack wraps source code with a function and optionally requires requested libs. This can be helpful to provide templated code as a function.

Installation

npm install function-wrap-loader

Usage

Documentation: Using loaders

The following is an example using this to wrap jsx template files.

Example react template file template.jsx:

<div class="testclass"></div>

Use the loader after the jsx loader (or babel or something else), and specify react at React:

var template = require("function-wrap-loader?React=react!jsx!./template.jsx");

Turns template.jsx in to:

var React = __webpack_require__(10);
module.exports = function () { return React.createElement("div", {class: "testclass"}) };

hoistRequires

Pass hoistRequires=true to hoist any requires/import statements outside the function wrap. This assumes requires/imports are at the top of the file and uses regexes to identify them. This will be replaced by inspection of the AST in the future. This is useful for requiring components in templates:

Example react template file template.jsx:

import _ from 'lodash';
var __ = require('underscore');

<div class="testclass"></div>

Use the loader after the jsx loader (or babel or something else), and specify react at React, as well as hoistRequires=true:

var template = require("function-wrap-loader?React=react&hoistRequires=true!jsx!./template.jsx");

Turns template.jsx in to:

var React = __webpack_require__(10);
var _ = __webpack_require__(12);
var __ = __webpack_require__(13);

module.exports = function () { return React.createElement("div", {class: "testclass"}) };

allowLocals

Pass allowLocals=true to enable local variables before the return statement in a function body. This assumes the return statement starts with a <, (, {, or [. This will be replaced by inspection of the AST in the future. This is useful for enabling local variables in templates.

Example react template file template.jsx:

import _ from 'lodash';
var a = 1;
<div class="testclass"></div>

Use the loader after the jsx loader (or babel or something else), and specify react at React, as well as hoistRequires=true:

var template = require("function-wrap-loader?React=react&hoistRequires=true&useLocals=true!jsx!./template.jsx");

Turns template.jsx in to:

var React = __webpack_require__(10);
var _ = __webpack_require__(12);
module.exports = function () { var a = 1; return React.createElement("div", {class: "testclass"}); };
