feat(plugin-webpack): Package all webpack `externals` and their dependencies
- [x] I have read the contribution documentation for this project.
- [x] I agree to follow the code of conduct that this project follows, as appropriate.
- [ ] The changes are appropriately documented (if applicable).
- [ ] The changes have sufficient test coverage (if applicable).
- [ ] The testsuite passes successfully on my local machine (if applicable).
This brings the functionality of this plugin and enables it by default.
- Collects Webpack
externals
from both main and renderer configs - Finds all their dependencies using
flora-colossus
- Ensures the correct directories in
node_modules
get included in the packaged app
This makes it particularly easy to get native modules working if they don't work well with Webpack. You just add them to Webpack externals and everything should work.
Notes:
- This doesn't work with monorepos with hoisted modules
- It currently uses private fields and methods of
flora-colossus
- Not yet tested in combination with Vercel loader
@timfish, thank you so much for it, do you know when will this get merged?
This PR is not finished and I haven't got time to finish at the moment.
Anyone else is welcome to take the reins though!
