npm-install-webpack-plugin
Speed up development by automatically installing & saving dependencies with Webpack.
Seamlessly works with:
- Javascript
(e.g.
require
,import
) - CSS
(e.g.
@import "~bootstrap"
) - Webpack loaders
(e.g.
babel-loader
,file-loader
, etc.)
Why?
It sucks to Ctrl-C your build script & server just to install a dependency you didn't know you needed until now.
Instead, use require
or import
how you normally would and npm install
will happen automatically install & save missing dependencies while you work!
Installation
$ npm install --save-dev npm-install-webpack-plugin
Usage
In your webpack.config.js
:
plugins:
If you have an .npmrc
file in your project,
those arguments will be used:
save=true
save-exact=true
Alternatively, you can provide your own arguments to npm install
:
plugins: ... cacheMin: 999999 // --cache-min=999999 (prefer NPM cached version) registry: "..." // --registry="..." save: true // --save saveDev: true // --save-dev saveExact: true // --save-exact ...
