webpack-manifest-plugin support

[minoritea]

We are using webpack-manifest-plugin to generate manifest.json, but this plugin causes a runtime error with rspack.

Error: napi error: GenericFailure - Error: processAssets hook uses custom stage number is not supported.

We are using manifest.json only to get the mapping of file names with fingerprints and original file names.

Do you have any plans to support this plugin? I'm fine with any other workaround if there is one.

i investigate the implementation and find it relyes on lots of api we dont support yet, we are gonna provide workaround for it

[hardfist]

you can use rspack-manifest-plugin in rspack@nightly now, see example here https://github.com/web-infra-dev/rspack/blob/main/examples/plugin-compat/rspack.config.js#L65

[hardfist]

@minoritea can you help check whether rspack-manifest-plugin works for you

[hardfist]

closing as has workaround, if anyone met problem again feel free to reopen it

[minoritea]

I'm sorry, I didn't notice the mention and the reply was late.
I'm very happy that the plugin has been implemented!
I'll check later if it works as expected in our application.

I have explored rspack and this does not work for our app, the build crashes with a SIGFAULT in our case

@hardfist looking at this it looks like with what the team has added with normal module maybe the rspack-manifest-plugin can get revisited?
