Doesn't work with Vue

[alijaya]

Hi... I try to make it works with vue... but it keeps showing an error, and the error somehow changes each compilation.

How to reproduce:

1. make a project with vue create
2. cd to the project and add webpack-obfuscator (i do it with yarn, yarn add webpack-obfuscator)
3. add file vue.config.js, write this:

var JavaScriptObfuscator = require('webpack-obfuscator')

module.exports = {
configureWebpack: {
plugins: [
new JavaScriptObfuscator()
]
}
}

4. serve it (i use yarn, so yarn serve)
5. open the page, open the console, and you see the error

Obfuscator working only with vue-cli configuration for TypeScript :(

Try to obfuscate your bundle directly with javascript-obfuscator. Error will happen?

[alijaya]

@sanex3339 : do you mean to use javascript-obfuscator cli to the js build file?

[alijaya]

I've tried it... it could work with certain settings... but how I could integrate this in webpack?

[sanex3339]

Strange that it doesn't work, because it just obfuscating bundle.
You can try obfuscate bundle without webpack-obfuscator plugin, with
https://www.npmjs.com/package/editable-sources-webpack-plugin

Anyway, i'll look into this issue when i'll have a time.

Ok... I have toying with this plugin... so I've found out that... in this line

this.excludes = typeof excludes === 'string' ? [excludes] : excludes || [];

Will be error if excludes is undefined (when you call JavaScriptObfuscator(), without parameter)

So I suggest to change it to:

excludes = excludes || [];
this.excludes = typeof excludes === 'string' ? [excludes] : excludes;

It's now working with yarn build
But still have a warning because in this code, you use deprecated API, you use this:

compiler.plugin('compilation', (...) => {...})

instead of this:

compiler.hooks.compilation.tap('PluginName', (...) => {...})

for yarn serve, I haven't found the solution, it compiles, but it still shows error in the browser. I think it's because the hot reloading code from vue-cli... :-?... I'll tinker around a little bit

Also getting issues here. Any full solution for this yet?

For anyone seeing this: try setting the parameter "seed" to 0
