templates/AureliaSpa/webpack.config.js

-            { test: /\.css$/, loaders: [ 'style-loader', 'css-loader' ] },
-            { test: /\.(png|woff|woff2|eot|ttf|svg)$/, loader: 'url-loader?limit=100000' },
-            { test: /\.json$/, loader: 'json-loader' }
+    module: {                                   // (4)


// (4) ? ;)

templates/AureliaSpa/webpack.config.js

-var path = require('path');
-var webpack = require('webpack');
-var AureliaWebpackPlugin = require('aurelia-webpack-plugin');
+const isDevBuild = process.argv.indexOf('--env.prod') < 0;


Seems quite ugly. The --env.YYY option is there so you can module.exports = function(env) where env will be an object containing the passed in env.YYY.

switched to what the others are using:

module.exports = (env) => { const isDevBuild = !(env && env.prod);

EisenbergEffect · 2017-04-09T13:30:31Z

Deferring to @niieani When he says it's good, then I'm happy :)

templates/AureliaSpa/webpack.config.js

-            { test: /\.css$/, loaders: [ 'style-loader', 'css-loader' ] },
-            { test: /\.(png|woff|woff2|eot|ttf|svg)$/, loader: 'url-loader?limit=100000' },
-            { test: /\.json$/, loader: 'json-loader' }
+module.exports = (env) => {


You can set a default empty object (env = {}) => here and you won't have to env && every time it's used :) Also, it might be arguably better to use destructuring here (maybe even with reassignment), like: ({prod} = {}).

templates/AureliaSpa/webpack.config.js

+    const bundleOutputDir = './wwwroot/dist';

+    return [{


Why return an array?

remnant of either the old config or from the one of the other templates. /removed.

MeirionHughes · 2017-04-11T04:32:54Z

@niieani I've checked the production build with:

webpack --config webpack.config. vendor.js -p
webpack -p
dotnet run --env Production

it appears to be working fine (named slots working too).

nmocruz · 2017-04-13T16:39:54Z

Why not use includeAll: "ClientApp" in AureliaPlugin instead of PLATFORM.moduleName in every module?

MeirionHughes · 2017-04-13T20:02:23Z

I've been told that includeAll was added to make it easier to migrate older projects; moving forward though, it places some limitations on how your code can be optimised and so you should generally use PLATFORM.moduleName.

jods4 · 2017-04-13T20:03:55Z

@nmocruz
I created includeAll as an easy way to migrate your existing project. Basically it means: just include all files in my source folder and be done.

It does have drawbacks, though:

You'll have a larger output because it prevents quite a few optimizations on all your files, such as: unused code removal, module renaming, exports renaming, tree shaking.
It prevents code splitting.
It does not validate at build time that your module strings actually exist.

Overall you're missing out quite a lot on what webpack can offer. This is like going back to an AMD + gulp build that is just taking all files in all source and libs and concat them together in a single big file.

nmocruz · 2017-04-14T07:45:16Z

@jods4 Ok, make sense. I need to get used to the idea of use PLATFORM.moduleName('my-module').
I was really unhappy with this change, after behing using just a string for some time. Is not so bad but shorter could be better.

jods4 · 2017-04-14T08:34:58Z

For libraires it's important to have a common, easily recognizable syntax (because JS is hard to analyze).
In your own code it might be different and in fact I already have everything required in place for you to define shorter synonyms.

You should also find that the places where module names appear are usually quite few.

nmocruz · 2017-04-14T09:08:13Z

You should also find that the places where module names appear are usually quite few.
yes, looks a good idea. I understand that PLATFORM.moduleName is a much more clear way but after the old approach it looks like repeating PLATFORM.moduleName just to be webpack friendly.
Anyway, congratulation for this.

EisenbergEffect · 2017-04-23T06:00:01Z

@SteveSanderson This is approved and ready to go on our side.

ClaudioNunes · 2017-04-24T18:23:02Z

@SteveSanderson any estimate on when this merge will occur?
HMR support is eargely waited.

ry8806 · 2017-04-27T10:00:38Z

I think this account is probably the one he uses (its more active) @SteveSandersonMS
Looking forward to seeing this merged soon!!!

ClaudioNunes · 2017-05-03T18:24:39Z

@SteveSandersonMS @EisenbergEffect Any updates?

EisenbergEffect · 2017-05-03T23:45:55Z

@SteveSandersonMS We definitely need this merged ASAP...please.

SteveSandersonMS · 2017-05-04T11:45:53Z

@MeirionHughes Great job on this! A really clean, straightforward PR. Also I'm impressed by the improvements to Aurelia itself - the new HMR functionality works brilliantly.

I'll now work on publishing the updated template package to NuGet.

EisenbergEffect · 2017-05-04T16:18:57Z

Thanks @SteveSandersonMS !
