Usage

// webpack config
{
  plugins: [new WebpackConfigDumpPlugin(options)];
}

Typescript module

}

Options and defaults

Option	Type	Required	Default	Description
outputPath	string	no	./	Path to store config dump
name	string	no	webpack.config.dump	Dump filename
depth	number	no	4	Config depth. Since webpack config is circularly locked, we can't dump whole config. This parameter sets how deep config dump will be stored
keepCircularReferences	boolean	no	false	If true, dumps whole config (disables the "depth" option) and marks parts that are circular references
showFunctionNames	boolean	no	false	By default functions are excluded from the final dump. If true, plugin marks properties that are functions
includeFalseValues	boolean	no	false	By default false-ish values are excluded from the dump. If true, plugin will dump empty objects, 0, '' etc

Changes

• 3.0.2 Bumped dependencies. Also wildcard the lodash and webpack-log so it accepts any version change from the upstream project

• Version 3 Added more flexibility, see the options section.
  Introduced some features like keepCircularReferences and so forth
  BREAKING: Adjusted consistency for empty values. Now it does not output empty objects and empty arrays by default (i.e. with includeFalseValues=false). Check the plugin configuration for details.

• Version 2 In version 2 the plugin has been rewritten using Typescript.
  BREAKING: Now it needs to be imported as ES module. Check the information above for details.
