I am trying to incorporate Webpack provided Plugins in order to utilize JQuery globally. Some resources suggest
You should add it in the webpack.config.js file under plugins:[] section.
However, upon examining my webpack.config.js, I noticed that there is no such plugins object present. As a workaround, I manually created the plugins object within the module array.
When attempting to execute the project using npm run dev,
it fails to run. I specifically want to include this plugin in the webpack.config.js
new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
$: 'jquery',
jQuery: 'jquery'
})
Any tips on how to achieve this? Below is my current webpack.config.js file:
var path = require('path')
var webpack = require('webpack')
module.exports = {
entry: './src/main.js',
output: {
path: path.resolve(__dirname, './dist'),
publicPath: '/dist/',
filename: 'build.js'
},
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.css$/,
use: [
'vue-style-loader',
'css-loader'
],
},
{
test: /\.vue$/,
loader: 'vue-loader',
options: {
loaders: {
}
// additional vue-loader configurations can be added here
}
},
{
test: /\.js$/,
loader: 'babel-loader',
exclude: /node_modules/
},
{
test: /\.(png|jpg|gif|svg)$/,
loader: 'file-loader',
options: {
name: '[name].[ext]?[hash]'
}
}
]
},
plugins: [
new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
$: 'jquery',
jQuery: 'jquery'
}),
new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
Vue: ['vue/dist/vue.esm.js', 'default']
})
],
resolve: {
alias: {
'vue$': 'vue/dist/vue.esm.js'
},
extensions: ['*', '.js', '.vue', '.json']
},
devServer: {
historyApiFallback: true,
noInfo: true,
overlay: true
},
performance: {
hints: false
},
devtool: '#eval-source-map'
}
if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
module.exports.devtool = '#source-map'
module.exports.plugins = (module.exports.plugins || []).concat([
new webpack.DefinePlugin({
'process.env': {
NODE_ENV: '"production"'
}
}),
new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin({
sourceMap: true,
compress: {
warnings: false
}
}),
new webpack.LoaderOptionsPlugin({
minimize: true
})
])
}
