webpack-hashed-chunkids

a plugin to help webpack to generate unique chunk id based on module id

why

webpack has official plugins to generate a unique module id: module-identifiers

but what about chunk id? I can't find a solution.

what is chunk id? open a bundled file, you can find something like this:

webpackJsonp([117],{...})

and the number 117 is chunk id
