DefinePlugin - not seeing variables

[undeadcellist]

I am using define plugin to set some environment variables, The loader doesn't seem to be picking them up?

Same here~

You can only use node.js environment process.env.YOUR_VARIABLE

// #if process.env.YOUR_VARIABLE !== 'BUILD'

// DO YOUR BUSINESS HERE

// #endif

By design in webpack, loaders run before plugins. So the variables defined by DefinePlugin are not "seen" by
webpack-conditional-loader because they are not text-replaced yet

@deepakanand any idea how to resolve this issue?

Just specify this variable in the Node.js environment.

Instead of

new webpack.DefinePlugin({
  YOUR_VARIABLE: JSON.stringify(true),
});

Use

$ YOUR_VARIABLE=true webpack
