Webpack loader to append text to files

Append a header to the contents loaded by the loader. Useful to add headers to all your files in the webpack pipeline.

Motivation: I wanted to use Ramda functions directly in my application without import every single one causing a huge bloat in my import statements. I also didn't want to keep using the "R." prefix.

Install:

$ npm install --save-dev webpack-append

Usage:

Add the loader to your webpack.config.js:

module.exports = {
    // ...
    module: {
      loaders: [
        // ...
        {
          test: /\.js$/,
          loader: 'webpack-append',
          query: 'console.log(\'This header sits perfectly at the begining of my file.!\')'
        }
      ]
    }
}

My use case:

import R from 'ramda'
const importAllRamdaFunctions = 'import { ' + Object.keys(R).join(', ') + ' } from \'ramda\''
 
module.exports = {
    // ...
    module: {
      loaders: [
        // ...
        {
          test: /\.js$/,
          loader: 'webpack-append',
          query: importAllRamdaFunctions
        }
      ]
    }
}
