boxy

Boxy bundler is a webpack-like bundler, built for demonstrations.

Supported features:

• bundling
• multiple entry points
• loaders - with a limited api (only standard loaders, no pitch phase, no plugins)
• only relative module resolution is supported

Installation

npm install boxy-bundler

Usage

boxy-bundler [config-file]

If no config file is specified, no attempt is made to load a default filename - instead, a default configuration is assumed.

config-file looks like the following:

module.exports = {
    entry: ['./index.js', './another-entry.js'],
    output: { filename: 'bundle.js' },
    module: {
        rules: [
            {
                test: /\.js$/,
                use: [
                    {
                        loader: 'babel-loader',
                        options: {
                            presets: [
                                ['@babel/preset-env', { modules: false }],
                                '@babel/preset-react',
                            ],
                            plugins: [
                                '@babel/plugin-syntax-dynamic-import',
                                '@babel/plugin-proposal-object-rest-spread',
                                ['@babel/plugin-proposal-decorators', { legacy: true }],
                                ['@babel/plugin-proposal-class-properties', { loose: true }],
                            ],
                        },
                    },
                ],
            },
        ],
    },
