npm install @rushstack/set-webpack-public-path-plugin --save-dev
This simple plugin sets the __webpack_public_path__ variable to
a value specified in the arguments, optionally appended to the SystemJs baseURL
property.
To use the plugin, add it to the plugins array of your Webpack config. For example:
import { SetPublicPathPlugin } from '@rushstack/set-webpack-public-path-plugin';
{
plugins: [
new SetPublicPathPlugin( /* webpackPublicPathOptions */ )
]
}This parameter is an object that takes three properties: a string property name, a boolean property isTokenized,
and a boolean property useAssetName
The name property is a regular expression string that is applied to all script URLs on the page. The last directory
of the URL that matches the regular expression is used as the public path. For example, if the name property
is set to my\-bundle_?[a-zA-Z0-9-_]*\.js and a script's URL is https://mycdn.net/files/build_id/assets/my-bundle_10fae182eb.js,
the public path will be set to https://mycdn.net/files/build_id/assets/.
If the isTokenized parameter is set to true, the regular expression string in name is treated as a tokenized
string. The supported tokens are [name] and [hash]. Instances of the [name] substring are replaced with the
chunk's name, and instances of the [hash] substring are replaced with the chunk's rendered hash. The name
is regular expression-escaped. For example, if the name property is set to [name]_?[a-zA-Z0-9-_]*\.js,
isTokenized is set to true, and the chunk's name is my-bundle, and a script's URL is
https://mycdn.net/files/build_id/assets/my-bundle_10fae182eb.js, the public path will be set to
https://mycdn.net/files/build_id/assets/.
If the useAssetName property is set, the plugin will use the Webpack-produced asset name as it would the name
property. useAssetName is exclusive to name and isTokenized.
This option is exclusive to other options. If it is set, systemJs, publicPath, and urlPrefix will be ignored.
Use System.baseURL if it is defined.
Use the specified path as the base public path. If urlPrefix is also defined, the public path will
be the concatenation of the two (i.e. - __webpack_public_path__ = URL.concat({publicPath} + {urlPrefix}).
This option takes precedence over the systemJs option.
Use the specified string as a URL prefix after the SystemJS path or the publicPath option. If neither
systemJs nor publicPath is defined, this option will not apply and an exception will be thrown.
Check for a variable with name ... on the page and use its value as a regular expression against script paths to
the bundle's script. If a value foo is passed into regexVariable, the produced bundle will look for a variable
called foo during initialization, and if a foo variable is found, use its value as a regular expression to
detect the bundle's script.
For example, if the regexVariable option is set to scriptRegex and scriptName is set to { name: 'myscript' },
consider two cases:
<html>
<head>
<script>
var scriptRegex = /thescript/i;
</script>
<script src="theScript.js"></script>
</head>
...
</html>In this case, because there is a scriptRegex variable defined on the page, the bundle will use its value
(/thescript/i) to find the script.
<html>
<head>
<script src="myScript.js"></script>
</head>
...
</html>In this case, because there is not a scriptRegex variable defined on the page, the bundle will use the value
passed into the scriptName option to find the script.
A function that returns a snippet of code that manipulates the variable with the name that's specified in the parameter. If this parameter isn't provided, no post-processing code is included. The variable must be modified in-place - the processed value should not be returned. This is useful when non-entry assets are deployed to a parent directory or subdirectory of the directory to which the entry assets are deployed.
For example, if this parameter is set to this function
getPostProcessScript = (variableName) => {
return `${variableName} = ${variableName} + 'assets/';`;
};the public path variable will have /assets/ appended to the found path.
Note that the existing value of the variable already ends in a slash (/).
If true, find the last script matching the regexVariable (if it is set). If false, find the first matching script. This can be useful if there are multiple scripts loaded in the DOM that match the regexVariable.
If true, always include the code snippet to detect the public path regardless of whether chunks or assets are present.
When modules are loaded with SystemJS (and with the , scriptLoad: true meta option) <script src="..."></script>
tags are injected onto the page, evaludated and then immediately removed. This causes an issue because they are removed
before webpack module code begins to execute, so the publicPath=... option won't work for modules loaded with SystemJS.
To circumvent this issue, a small bit of code is availble to that will maintain a global register of script paths
that have been inserted onto the page. This code block should be appended to bundles that are expected to be loaded
with SystemJS and use the publicPath=... option.
This function returns a block of JavaScript that maintains a global register of script tags. If the optional boolean parameter
is set to true, the code is not minified. By default, it is minified. You can detect if the plugin may require
the global register code by searching for the value of the registryVariableName field.
