Broken when bundled with webpack

[lukechu10]

Describe the bug

• Node.js version: 10.16.0
• OS & version: Windows 10 build 1909
• Electron version: 7.1.3
• Typescript version: 3.7.3

I want to bundle my electron app with webpack to reduce the package size and to improve performance. However, got appears to not work with webpack.

Actual behavior

When I get the body of a request, I get tons of Unicode characters which do not mean anything:

��?��f�"y�,yv�r�Q��>�2�
^ِ>�a�xl��Z)��������֘{��Бi�V���\V����2���?��u�2��6]�x���"8���.�/���������(��$�ʱ5����86O��b���Oe��k^�t6���B������M������N�F�}p�ۍaxt�ޭT��J(��Z'�ODF

(This is only part of it)

There also seems to be another error where the payload of a POST request is sent as [object Object]. (See edit at end)

Expected behavior

I should get the response from the server

Code to reproduce

// index.ts
const res = got("https://www.google.com");
res.then(data => {
	console.log(data.body);
});

This code is situated in the entry point of my app.

Here is my webpack configuration:

const path = require("path");

module.exports = {
	mode: "development",
	devtool: "inline-source-map",
	entry: "./src/renderer/index.ts",
	output: {
		filename: "./dist/renderer.bundle.js",
		libraryTarget: "window"
	},
	resolve: {
		// Add `.ts` and `.tsx` as a resolvable extension.
		extensions: [".ts", ".tsx", ".js"]
	},
	module: {
		rules: [
			// all files with a `.ts` or `.tsx` extension will be handled by `ts-loader`
			{
				test: /\.tsx?$/,
				include: path.resolve(__dirname, 'src'),
				loader: "ts-loader"
			}
		]
	},
	target: "electron-renderer"
};

Checklist

• I have read the documentation.
• I have tried my code with the latest version of Node.js and Got.

EDIT:

• The issue where the payload is sent as [object Object] is actually not a problem with got but with a library I was using. Sorry for the confusion.

Could you please include a repository example? I'm not familiar with webpack.

I have not commited the changes yet but it should be here: lukechu10/Minecraft-Box-Launcher on the webpack-bundling branch

I was randomly checking this and found @lukechu10 probably fixed this on its end.
