var webpack = require('webpack')
var HtmlReplaceWebpackPlugin = require('html-replace-webpack-plugin')
 
// file types & file links
const resource = {
  js: { bootstrap: '//cdn/bootstrap/bootstrap.min.js' },
  css: { bootstrap: '//cdn/bootstrap/bootstrap.min.css' },
  img: { 'the-girl': '//cdn/img/the-girl.jpg' }
}
 
const tpl = {
  img: '<img src="%s">',
  css: '<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="%s">',
  js: '<script type="text/javascript" src="%s"></script>'
}
 
module.exports = {
  // Definition for Webpack plugins
  plugin: [
    new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
      /* configs */
    }),
    // Replace html contents with string or regex patterns
    new HtmlReplaceWebpackPlugin([
      {
        pattern: 'foo',
        replacement: '`foo` has been replaced with `bar`'
      },
      {
        pattern: '@@title',
        replacement: 'html replace webpack plugin'
      },
            {
        pattern: /<p>(.+?)<\/p>/g, // /g => replace all
        replacement: '<div>$1</div>'
      },
      {
        pattern: /(<!--\s*|@@)(css|js|img):([\w-\/]+)(\s*-->)?/g,
        replacement: function(match, $1, type, file, $4, index, input) {
          // those formal parameters could be:
          // match: <-- css:bootstrap-->
          // type: css
          // file: bootstrap
          // Then fetch css link from some resource object
          // var url = resources['css']['bootstrap']
 
          var url = resource[type][file]
 
          // $1==='@@' <--EQ--> $4===undefined
          return $4 == undefined ? url : tpl[type].replace('%s', url)
        }
      }
    ])
  ]
}

In your src/index.html file:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
    <head>
      <meta charset="UTF-8">
      <title>@@title</title>
      <!-- css:bootstrap -->
    </head>
    <body>
      <div>foo</div>
      <p>I wanna be in a div</p>
      <!-- js:bootstrap -->
    </body>
</html>

After replacing, in the dist/index.html file:

<html lang="en">
    <head>
      <meta charset="UTF-8">
      <title>html replace webpack plugin</title>
      <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="//cdn/bootstrap/bootstrap.min.css">
    </head>
    <body>
      <div>`foo` has been replaced with `bar`</div>
      <div>I wanna be in a div</div>
