Webpack Loader API Support

Ahmad Amireh edited this page Sep 11, 2017 · 13 revisions

Compatible loader features:

  • this.emitWarning(String)
  • this.emitError(String)
  • this.emitFile(String, String, Object)
  • this.addDependency(String)
  • this.addContextDependency(String)
  • this.clearDependencies()
  • this.callback(err: String, code: String, map: Object) style for yielding code + map
  • async this.callback style for yielding code + map
  • synchronous return style for yielding code
  • pitch loaders (module.exports.pitch) (see #15)
  • this.cacheable() (no op, we're always caching)
  • this.exec (can't support this)
  • this.resolve(module: String) -> String
  • this.resolveSync (can't do this synchronously)
  • this.loadModule (since 2.2.0)

Loader context:

  • this.context
  • this.query
  • this.resourcePath
  • this.resourceQuery
  • this.options (somewhat working, we don't serialize the plugins though or anything with cyclic dependencies)
  • this.data (pitch)
  • this.loaders
  • this.loaderIndex
  • this.values
  • this.inputValues
  • this.debug
  • this.minimize
  • this.sourceMap
  • this.target
  • this.webpack
  • this._compilation
  • this._compiler
  • this._module

Striked out stuff won't be done.
