This example demonstrates how to build a complex library with webpack. The library consist of multiple parts that are usable on its own and together.
When using this library with script tags it exports itself to the namespace MyLibrary and each part to a property in this namespace (MyLibrary.alpha and MyLibrary.beta). When consuming the library with CommonsJs or AMD it just export each part.
We are using multiple entry points (entry option) to build every part of the library as separate output file. The output.filename option contains [name] to give each output file a different name.
We are using the libraryTarget option to generate a UMD (Universal Module Definition) module that is consumable in CommonsJs, AMD and with script tags. The library option defines the namespace. We are using [name] in the library option to give every entry a different namespace.
You can see that webpack automatically wraps your module so that it is consumable in every environment. All you need is this simple config.
Note: You can also use the library and libraryTarget options without multiple entry points. Then you don't need [name].
Note: When your library has dependencies that should not be included in the compiled version, you can use the externals option. See externals example.
webpack.config.js
var path = require("path");
module.exports = {
// mode: "development || "production",
entry: {
alpha: "./alpha",
beta: "./beta"
},
output: {
path: path.join(__dirname, "dist"),
filename: "MyLibrary.[name].js",
library: ["MyLibrary", "[name]"],
libraryTarget: "umd"
}
};
