Default publicPath value, relative publicPath

[saskodh]

Hi,
thanks for writing this loader. It integrates nicely in our Webpack configuration.
However I've noticed a small issue connected with the default value of the publicPath.

According to the Webpack docs the default value for publicPath is an empty string, which means relative to the page. This is the case in my app and in the production build I omit defining the publicPath. When using this loader in the urls for the font I have absolute url (starting with /). I suppose the issue is on this line.

Note: If the path is relative in the urls for the fonts, through the css-loader, Webpack will require the file and fail because the file does not exists. Any ideas on how we can fix this?

I'm having the same issue, if the output.publicPath option is omitted or an empty string, I expect all my urls to resolve in "relative" way. However, this loader prefixes the font urls with /

@erwingo, I found a temporary workaround for this. It might helpful also for you.

• set publicPath='./'
• disable url requires for the css-loader: { loader: 'css-loader', options: { url: false } }

@saskodh thank you! I tried with that publicPath but what was missing was the css-loader config.
