NAME
Mojolicious::Plugin::Webpack - Mojolicious ♥ Webpack
SYNOPSIS
Check out https://github.com/jhthorsen/mojolicious-plugin-webpack/tree/master/example for a working example.
Define assets
One or more assets need to be defined. The minimum is to create one entry point and add it to the webpack.custom.js
file.
# Entrypoint: ./assets/app.js
// This will result in one css and one js asset.
import "../css/css-example.css";
console.log("I'm loaded!");
# Config file: ./assets/webpack.custom.js
module.exports = function(config) {
config.entry = {
"cool_beans": "./assets/app.js",
};
};
Application
Your lite or full app, need to load Mojolicious::Plugin::Webpack and tell it what kind of assets it should be able to process:
$app->plugin(Webpack => {process => [qw(js css)]});
See "register" for more config options.
Template
To include the generated assets in your template, you can use the "asset" helper:
%= asset "my_app.css"
%= asset "my_app.js"
Start application
You can start the application using daemon
, hypnotoad
or any Mojolicious server you want, but if you want rapid development you should use crushinator
, which is an alternative to morbo
:
$ crushinator -h
$ crushinator ./my_app.pl
