Allow slash in filename regex

[koteus]

I started the webpack-dev-server in lazy mode with the following arguments --lazy --iframe --progress --colors. My webpack.config.js looks like this:

'use strict';

var path = require('path');

module.exports = {
    entry: [
        './app/index'
    ],
    output: {
        path: path.join(__dirname, 'build'),
        filename: 'bundle.js',
        publicPath: '/static/'
    }
};

I got 404 error for bundle.js. After some debugging it turned out that this expression (!options.filename || options.filename.test(filename)) on line 150 evaluates to false because filename variable equals to "/bundle.js" (with a forward slash). So I changed options.filename regex to allow optional forward slash and everything works now correctly.

I imagine this is only for Webpack 2.x?

Nope, it was released in stable a while ago.
