2024 - Full webpack.config.js I am using for a side project. (to share on SO)

webpack.config.js

const path = require('path');
const TerserPlugin = require("terser-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
    mode: 'development',
    watchOptions: {
        ignored: /node_modules/,
    },
    optimization: {
        minimize: true,
        minimizer: [
            new TerserPlugin({
                test: /\.js(\?.*)?$/i,
                include: /\/src/,
            })
        ],
    },
    plugins: [],
    cache: true,
    devServer: {
        liveReload: true,
        static: {
            directory: path.join(__dirname, 'public'),
        },
        compress: false,
        port: 9000,
        historyApiFallback: true,
    },
    stats: {all: undefined},
    resolve: {
        alias: {
        },
    },
    entry: {
        app: './src/index.js'
    },
    devtool: 'inline-source-map',
    output: {
        filename: '[name].bundle.js',
        path: path.resolve(__dirname, './src/public/bundle'),
    },
    module: {
        rules: [
            {
                test: /\.js$/,
                loader: 'babel-loader',
                exclude: /node_modules/,
                include: path.resolve(__dirname, 'src')
            },
            {
                test: /\.(png|jpe?g|gif)$/i,
                exclude: /node_modules/,
                use: [
                    {
                        loader: 'file-loader',
                        options: {outputPath: 'images'}
                    },
                ],
            },
            {
                test: /\.(css|sass|scss)$/,
                exclude: /node_modules/,
                use: [
                    "style-loader",
                    'css-loader',
                    'sass-loader'
                ]
            }
        ]
    }
};
