getLoaderConfigRecommended way to retrieve the loader config:
// inside your loader
config = loaderUtils.getLoaderConfig(this, "myLoader");
Tries to read the loader config from the webpack.config.js under the given property name ("myLoader" in this case) and merges the result with the loader query. For example, if your webpack.config.js had this property...
cheesecakeLoader: {
type: "delicious",
slices: 4
}
...and your loader was called with ?slices=8, getLoaderConfig(this, "cheesecakeLoader") would return
{
type: "delicious",
slices: 8
}
It is recommended that you use the camelCased loader name as your default config property name.
parseQueryvar query = loaderUtils.parseQuery(this.query);
assert(typeof query == "object");
if(query.flag)
// ...
null -> {}
? -> {}
?flag -> { flag: true }
?+flag -> { flag: true }
?-flag -> { flag: false }
?xyz=test -> { xyz: "test" }
?xyz[]=a -> { xyz: ["a"] }
?flag1&flag2 -> { flag1: true, flag2: true }
?+flag1,-flag2 -> { flag1: true, flag2: false }
?xyz[]=a,xyz[]=b -> { xyz: ["a", "b"] }
?a%2C%26b=c%2C%26d -> { "a,&b": "c,&d" }
?{json:5,data:{a:1}} -> { json: 5, data: { a: 1 } }
stringifyRequestTurns a request into a string that can be used inside require() or import while avoiding absolute paths.
Use it instead of JSON.stringify(...) if you're generating code inside a loader.
Why is this necessary? Since webpack calculates the hash before module paths are translated into module ids, we must avoid absolute paths to ensure
consistent hashes across different compilations.
This function:
\ with / if the request and the module are on the same hard driveJSON.stringify to the resultloaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "./test.js");
// "\"./test.js\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, ".\\test.js");
// "\"./test.js\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "test");
// "\"test\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "test/lib/index.js");
// "\"test/lib/index.js\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "otherLoader?andConfig!test?someConfig");
// "\"otherLoader?andConfig!test?someConfig\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, require.resolve("test"));
// "\"../node_modules/some-loader/lib/test.js\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "C:\\module\\test.js");
// "\"../../test.js\"" (on Windows, in case the module and the request are on the same drive)
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "C:\\module\\test.js");
// "\"C:\\module\\test.js\"" (on Windows, in case the module and the request are on different drives)
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "\\\\network-drive\\test.js");
// "\"\\\\network-drive\\\\test.js\"" (on Windows, in case the module and the request are on different drives)
urlToRequestConverts some resource URL to a webpack module request.
var url = "path/to/module.js";
var request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url); // "./path/to/module.js"
Any URL containing a ~ will be interpreted as a module request. Anything after the ~ will be considered the request path.
var url = "~path/to/module.js";
var request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url); // "path/to/module.js"
URLs that are root-relative (start with /) can be resolved relative to some arbitrary path by using the root parameter:
var url = "/path/to/module.js";
var root = "./root";
var request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url, root); // "./root/path/to/module.js"
To convert a root-relative URL into a module URL, specify a root value that starts with ~:
var url = "/path/to/module.js";
var root = "~";
var request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url, root); // "path/to/module.js"
interpolateNameInterpolates a filename template using multiple placeholders and/or a regular expression.
The template and regular expression are set as query params called name and regExp on the current loader's context.
var interpolatedName = loaderUtils.interpolateName(loaderContext, name, options);
The following tokens are replaced in the name parameter:
[ext] the extension of the resource[name] the basename of the resource[path] the path of the resource relative to the context query parameter or option.[folder] the folder of the resource is in.[emoji] a random emoji representation of options.content[emoji:<length>] same as above, but with a customizable number of emojis[hash] the hash of options.content (Buffer) (by default it's the hex digest of the md5 hash)[<hashType>:hash:<digestType>:<length>] optionally one can configurehashTypes, i. e. sha1, md5, sha256, sha512digestTypes, i. e. hex, base26, base32, base36, base49, base52, base58, base62, base64length the length in chars[N] the N-th match obtained from matching the current file name against options.regExpExamples
