Provide some kind of guidance for using haste system with webpack

[barbu110]

I am aware of the description of the repo, those who use this will have a hard time, but I would be grateful if somebody would give a couple of minutes to explain me (and probably others) how to use the Haste module system with webpack.

So I see it's quite simple to use it with gulp, basically, you just generate the modules map and use the Babel API to rewrite the requires, essentially skiping the .babelrc.

1. But how should I do this in a webpack environment?
2. When should I generate the modules map?

Thank you!

You're welcome to figure that out on your own but as this is a system designed specifically for us to use and it works - we're not going to invest resources in figuring something else out right now. We compile to commonjs for npm for everybody (including us) to use.

Sorry that's not a great answer but we just don't have the time to figure spend on this.

It would take as much as 5 minutes for someone like you (who this software even in the middle of night) to write a piece of code that would run

I appreciate that you think so highly of me but it would take longer than 5 minutes for sure. I don't know how webpack works and would need to figure out how to inject a module resolver. And then I would need to find every file on disk and read it to get the providesModule declaration and build a map, assuming that's even how webpack works.

I have no need to do this so I won't be spending any more time on the matter. Good luck.

@barbu110 Have you resolved it on your own? I am very interested in a solution ;)
