webpack-chain: Neutrino configuration API¶
Use a chaining API to generate and simplify the modification of webpack configurations.
This documentation corresponds to v6 of webpack-chain, which Neutrino utilizes.
Note: while webpack-chain is utilized extensively in Neutrino, the package is completely standalone and can be used by any project. See the webpack-chain repository for standalone documentation.
Introduction¶
webpack's core configuration is based on creating and modifying a potentially unwieldy JavaScript object. While this is OK for configurations on individual projects, trying to share these objects across projects and make subsequent modifications gets messy, as you need to have a deep understanding of the underlying object structure to make those changes.
webpack-chain
attempts to improve this process by providing a chainable or
fluent API for creating and modifying webpack configurations. Key portions
of the API can be referenced by user-specified names, which helps to
standardize how to modify a configuration across projects.
This is easier explained through the examples following.
Getting Started¶
In the Neutrino API, the config
property is an instance of webpack-chain. For this guide,
our example base configuration will be .neutrinorc.js
in the root of our project directory.
This can utilize either the Object format or
Function format to access the Neutrino API:
// .neutrinorc.js
// Object format
module.exports = {
use: [
(neutrino) => {
// access the Neutrino API
}
]
};
// Function format
module.exports = (neutrino) => {
// access the Neutrino API
};
In our examples we will utilize the Function format for sake of space.
// Make configuration changes using the chaining API.
// Every API call tracks a change to the stored configuration.
module.exports = (neutrino) => {
neutrino.config
// Interact with entry points
.entry('index')
.add('src/index.js')
.end()
// Modify output settings
.output
.path('dist')
.filename('[name].bundle.js');
// Create named rules which can be modified later or
// in other middleware/presets
neutrino.config.module
.rule('lint')
.test(/\.js$/)
.pre()
.include
.add('src')
.end()
// Even create named uses (loaders)
.use('eslint')
.loader('eslint-loader')
.options({
rules: {
semi: 'off'
}
});
neutrino.config.module
.rule('compile')
.test(/\.js$/)
.include
.add('src')
.add('test')
.end()
.use('babel')
.loader('babel-loader')
.options({
presets: [
['@babel/preset-env', { modules: false }]
]
});
// Create named plugins too!
neutrino.config
.plugin('clean')
.use(CleanPlugin);
};
ChainedMap¶
One of the core API interfaces in Neutrino configuration is a ChainedMap
. A
ChainedMap
operates similar to a JavaScript Map, with some conveniences for
chaining and generating configuration. If a property is marked as being a
ChainedMap
, it will have an API and methods as described below:
Unless stated otherwise, these methods will return the ChainedMap
, allowing
you to chain these methods.
// Remove all entries from a Map.
clear()
// Remove a single entry from a Map given its key.
// key: *
delete(key)
// Fetch the value from a Map located at the corresponding key.
// key: *
// returns: value
get(key)
// Fetch the value from a Map located at the corresponding key.
// If the key is missing, the key is set to the result of function fn.
// key: *
// fn: Function () -> value
// returns: value
getOrCompute(key, fn)
// Set a value on the Map stored at the `key` location.
// key: *
// value: *
set(key, value)
// Returns `true` or `false` based on whether a Map as has a value set at a
// particular key.
// key: *
// returns: Boolean
has(key)
// Returns an array of all the values stored in the Map.
// returns: Array
values()
// Returns an object of all the entries in the backing Map
// where the key is the object property, and the value
// corresponding to the key. Will return `undefined` if the backing
// Map is empty.
// This will order properties by their name if the value is
// a ChainedMap that used .before() or .after().
// returns: Object, undefined if empty
entries()
````
```js
// Provide an object which maps its properties and values
// into the backing Map as keys and values.
// You can also provide an array as the second argument
// for property names to omit from being merged.
// obj: Object
// omit: Optional Array
merge(obj, omit)
// Execute a function against the current configuration context
// handler: Function -> ChainedMap
// A function which is given a single argument of the ChainedMap instance
batch(handler)
// Conditionally execute a function to continue configuration
// condition: Boolean
// whenTruthy: Function -> ChainedMap
// invoked when condition is truthy, given a single argument of the ChainedMap instance
// whenFalsy: Optional Function -> ChainedMap
// invoked when condition is falsy, given a single argument of the ChainedMap instance
when(condition, whenTruthy, whenFalsy)
ChainedSet¶
Another of the core API interfaces in Neutrino configuration is a ChainedSet
. A
ChainedSet
operates similar to a JavaScript Set, with some conveniences for
chaining and generating configuration. If a property is marked as being a
ChainedSet
, it will have an API and methods as described below:
Unless stated otherwise, these methods will return the ChainedSet
, allowing
you to chain these methods.
// Add/append a value to the end of a Set.
// value: *
add(value)
// Add a value to the beginning of a Set.
// value: *
prepend(value)
// Remove all values from a Set.
clear()
// Remove a specific value from a Set.
// value: *
delete(value)
// Returns `true` or `false` based on whether or not the
// backing Set contains the specified value.
// value: *
// returns: Boolean
has(value)
// Returns an array of values contained in the backing Set.
// returns: Array
values()
// Concatenates the given array to the end of the backing Set.
// arr: Array
merge(arr)
// Execute a function against the current configuration context
// handler: Function -> ChainedSet
// A function which is given a single argument of the ChainedSet instance
batch(handler)
// Conditionally execute a function to continue configuration
// condition: Boolean
// whenTruthy: Function -> ChainedSet
// invoked when condition is truthy, given a single argument of the ChainedSet instance
// whenFalsy: Optional Function -> ChainedSet
// invoked when condition is falsy, given a single argument of the ChainedSet instance
when(condition, whenTruthy, whenFalsy)
Shorthand methods¶
A number of shorthand methods exist for setting a value on a ChainedMap
with the same key as the shorthand method name.
For example, devServer.hot
is a shorthand method, so it can be used as:
// A shorthand method for setting a value on a ChainedMap
neutrino.config.devServer.hot(true);
// This would be equivalent to:
neutrino.config.devServer.set('hot', true);
A shorthand method is chainable, so calling it will return the original instance, allowing you to continue to chain.
Config¶
Moving to deeper points in the configuration API will change the context of what you
are modifying. You can move back to the higher context by either referencing
the top-level neutrino.config
again, or by calling .end()
to move up one level.
If you are familiar with jQuery, .end()
works similarly. All API calls
will return the API instance at the current context unless otherwise
specified. This is so you may chain API calls continuously if desired.
For details on the specific values that are valid for all shorthand and low-level methods, please refer to their corresponding name in the webpack docs hierarchy.

Merging Config¶
Neutrino config supports merging in an object to the configuration instance which matches a layout similar to how the configuration schema is laid out. Note that this is not a webpack configuration object, but you may transform a webpack configuration object before providing it to Neutrino configuration to match its layout.
neutrino.config.merge({ devtool: 'source-map' });
neutrino.config.get('devtool') // "source-map"
// Neutrino configuration "schematic"
// Merging an object into Neutrino configuration
// should have any properties you set follow this
// "schematic" format.
neutrino.config.merge({

}
}
})
Conditional configuration¶
When working with instances of ChainedMap
and ChainedSet
, you can perform
conditional configuration using when
. You must specify an expression to
when()
which will be evaluated for truthiness or falsiness. If the expression
is truthy, the first function argument will be invoked with an instance of the
current chained instance. You can optionally provide a second function to be
invoked when the condition is falsy, which is also given the current chained
instance.
// Example: Only add minify plugin during production
neutrino.config
.when(process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production', config => {
config
.plugin('minify')
.use(BabelMinifyWebpackPlugin);
});
// Example: Only add minify plugin during production,
// otherwise set devtool to source-map
neutrino.config
.when(process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production',
config => config.plugin('minify').use(BabelMinifyWebpackPlugin),
config => config.devtool('source-map')
);
Inspecting generated configuration¶
You can inspect the generated webpack config using neutrino.config.toString()
. This
will generate a stringified version of the config with comment hints for named
rules, uses and plugins:
neutrino.config
.module
.rule('compile')
.test(/\.js$/)
.use('babel')
.loader('babel-loader');
neutrino.config.toString({ configPrefix: 'neutrino.config' });
/*
{
module: {
rules: [
/* neutrino.config.module.rule('compile') */
{
test: /\.js$/,
use: [
/* neutrino.config.module.rule('compile').use('babel') */
{
loader: 'babel-loader'
}
]
}
]
}
}
*/
By default the generated string cannot be used directly as real webpack config
if it contains functions and plugins that need to be required. In order to
generate usable config, you can customize how functions and plugins are
stringified by setting a special __expression
property on them:
class MyPlugin {}
MyPlugin.__expression = `require('my-plugin')`;
function myFunction () {}
myFunction.__expression = `require('my-function')`;
neutrino.config
.plugin('example')
.use(MyPlugin, [{ fn: myFunction }]);
neutrino.config.toString({ configPrefix: 'neutrino.config' });
/*
{
plugins: [
new (require('my-plugin'))({
fn: require('my-function')
})
]
}
*/
Plugins specified via their path will have their require()
statement generated
automatically:
neutrino.config
.plugin('env')
.use(require.resolve('webpack/lib/ProvidePlugin'), [{ jQuery: 'jquery' }])
neutrino.config.toString({ configPrefix: 'neutrino.config' });
/*
{
plugins: [
new (require('/foo/bar/src/node_modules/webpack/lib/EnvironmentPlugin.js'))(
{
jQuery: 'jquery'
}
)
]
}
*/
You can also call toString
as a static method on Config
in order to
modify the configuration object prior to stringifying.
Config.toString(
{
...neutrino.config.toConfig(),
module: {
defaultRules: [
{
use: [
{
loader: 'banner-loader',
options: { prefix: 'banner-prefix.txt' },
},
],
},
],
},
},
{
configPrefix: 'neutrino.config'
}
)
/*
{
plugins: [
/* neutrino.config.plugin('foo') */
new TestPlugin()
],
module: {
defaultRules: [
{
use: [
{
loader: 'banner-loader',
options: {
prefix: 'banner-prefix.txt'
}
}
]
}
]
}
}
*/
