ConfigurationFile

Direct Subclass:

WebpackBaseConfiguration, WebpackBrowserDevelopmentConfiguration, WebpackBrowserProductionConfiguration, WebpackNodeDevelopmentConfiguration, WebpackNodeProductionConfiguration, WebpackRulesConfiguration

A helper class for creating configuration files that can be overwritten on implementation.

Constructor Summary

Public Constructor
public abstract	constructor(pathUtils: PathUtils, overwritePaths: string \| Array, asFactory: boolean, parentConfig: ConfigurationFile) Class constructor.

Member Summary

Public Members
public	asFactory: boolean Whether the configuration should be created every time `getConfig` gets called or not.
public	overwritePaths: Array A list of paths that can overwrite the configuration.
public	parentConfig: ConfigurationFile A parent configuration to extend.
public	pathUtils: PathUtils A local reference for the `pathUtils` service.

Method Summary

Public Methods
public abstract	createConfig() This method will be called the first time `getConfig` gets called (or every time, depending on the value of the `asFactory` property) and it should return the configuration contents.
public	getConfig(args: Array): Object This is the public method all other services uses to obtain the configuration.

Public Constructors

public abstract constructor(pathUtils: PathUtils, overwritePaths: string | Array, asFactory: boolean, parentConfig: ConfigurationFile) source

Class constructor.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
pathUtils	PathUtils		To build the path to the overwrite file.
overwritePaths	string \| Array		A path of a list of paths for files that can overwrite the configuration. If used as a string, it will assume the path is inside the `config` folder, but if used as a list, the paths will be relative to the project root directory. If used as an array, the class will use the first file of the list that exists and ignore the rest.
asFactory	boolean	optional default: false	If `true`, every time `getConfig` gets called, the configuration will be created again, instead of caching it the first time it's created.
parentConfig	ConfigurationFile	optional default: null nullable: true	If this parameter is used, the configuration created by the instance will be merged on top of the configuration returned by the `getConfig` method of the parent configuration.

Throw:

TypeError

If instantiated directly.

Public Members

public asFactory: boolean source

Whether the configuration should be created every time getConfig gets called or not.

public overwritePaths: Array source

A list of paths that can overwrite the configuration.

public parentConfig: ConfigurationFile source

A parent configuration to extend.

public pathUtils: PathUtils source

A local reference for the pathUtils service.

Public Methods

public abstract createConfig() source

This method will be called the first time getConfig gets called (or every time, depending on the value of the asFactory property) and it should return the configuration contents. As parameters, it will return the same ones sent to getConfig.

Throw:

Error

if not overwritten.

Example:

// Let's say the class receives this call: `getConfig({ name: 'Charito'}, 'hello')`, you could
// do something like this:
createConfig(options, prefix) {
  return { message: `${prefix} ${options.name}` };
}
// And the configuration would be `{ message: 'hello Charito'}`

public getConfig(args: Array): Object source

This is the public method all other services uses to obtain the configuration. If the configuration doesn't exists or asFactory was set to true on the constructor, the configuration will be reloaded.

Params:

Name	Type	Attribute	Description
args	Array		A list of parameters for the service to use when creating the configuration

Return:

Object
