webpack load css files from node_modules

[panvourtsis]

In our webpack config there is the line that if we load css from modules can add it to the bundle #157 but how about if we require a module that uses css? Then we are getting errors.

Have anyone has the same problem as me?

Same problem here

I was also having problems importing .css files from node_modules. What worked for me was using require instead of import or @import.

Example from my client/App.js:

require('../node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap.css');
require('../node_modules/bootstrap/dist/css/bootstrap-theme.css');

For bootstrap, I followed this and it worked like a charm:

Thanks @u0078867, that's even better than what I figured out. I'm back to using import with the paths mentioned in that article now.
