How to simply load images with src attribute with webpack 4?

Im stuck and can't get to work my webpack configuration for loading images with src attribute from HTML. I cloned a repo with full setup of webpack, but I know there is a way to simply customize and load images directly from HTML.
Webpack.config.js file:
const path = require("path");
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require("html-webpack-plugin");
const { CleanWebpackPlugin } = require("clean-webpack-plugin");
module.exports = {
entry: {
main: "./src/index.js"
},
output: {
path: path.join(__dirname, "../build"),
filename: "[name].bundle.js"
},
mode: "development",
devServer: {
contentBase: path.join(__dirname, "../build"),
compress: true,
port: 3000,
overlay: true
},
devtool: "cheap-module-eval-source-map",
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.js$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
use: {
loader: "babel-loader" // transpiling our JavaScript files using Babel and webpack
}
},
{
test: /\.(sa|sc|c)ss$/,
use: [
"style-loader", // creates style nodes from JS strings
"css-loader", // translates CSS into CommonJS
"postcss-loader", // Loader for webpack to process CSS with PostCSS
"sass-loader" // compiles Sass to CSS, using Node Sass by default
]
},
{
test: /\.(png|svg|jpe?g|gif)$/,
use: [
{
loader: "file-loader", // This will resolves import/require() on a file into a url
and emits the file into the output directory.
options: {
name: "[name].[ext]",
outputPath: "assets",
}
},
]
},
{
test: /\.html$/,
use: {
loader: "html-loader",
options: {
attrs: ["img:src", ":data-src"],
minimize: true
}
}
}
]
},
plugins: [
// CleanWebpackPlugin will do some clean up/remove folder before build
// In this case, this plugin will remove 'dist' and 'build' folder before re-build again
new CleanWebpackPlugin(),
// The plugin will generate an HTML5 file for you that includes all your webpack bundles
in
the body using script tags
new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
template: "./src/index.html",
filename: "index.html"
}),
Before this project I was able to make that images would simply load from HTML but now ironicly im stuck and can't get this working.
Any help will be very appriciated.
When loading a image directly form HTML, I get the following error:
Error: Child compilation failed:
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '
./src/assets/images/portret.jpg' in '/home/viktoras/www/sites/painter-new/src':

You can do this:
<img src="<%=require('./src/assets/logo.png')%>">

Webpack 4 extract css from scss not removing the sass file from complied file

I have gone through a lot of questions on stackoverflow and article before writing this question here.
I am successfully able to create the CSS file sass using webpack4.
I have file as below client.js, it import the scss
import React , { Component } from 'react'
import { connect } from 'react-redux';
import './jobcard.scss';
here is my webpack config.
const path = require('path');
const MiniCssExtractPlugin = require("mini-css-extract-plugin");
module.exports = {
entry: {
client: './src/client.js',
},
output: {
path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'asset'),
filename: "[name].js"
},
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.js$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
loader: "babel-loader"
},
{
test: /\.scss$/,
use: [
MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader,
"css-loader",
"sass-loader"
]
},
]
},
plugins: [
new MiniCssExtractPlugin({
filename: 'main.css',
})
]
}
It successfully creating the main.css and store in the '/asset' folder.
but the problem is when I complied client.js using babel. it has below the line.
require("./jobcard.scss");
its breaks due to the above line because in dist folder there is no such scss file as it's extract and placed in 'asset' folder. I want my css/image in 'asset' folder.
my expectation is my final css moved to '/asset' folder which is happening right now and the above line should get removed from complied client.js file.
So I can refer the main.css on my index.html from asset location.

Try with this config to see if it work for you
module: {
rules: [{
test: /\.scss$/,
use: [
'style-loader',
MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader,
{
loader: "css-loader",
options: {
minimize: true,
sourceMap: true
}
},
{
loader: "sass-loader"
}
]
}
]
}

Import a SCSS "exported" variable into the Javascript code within a .vue file that is loaded by vue-loader and bundled by webpack

I have a variable in my vars.scss that I want to access from Javascript in root/app/app.vue.
root/app/scss/vars.scss
:export {
cursor: #fff;
}
root/app/app.vue
<template>
<div id="yes">
</div>
</template>
<script lang="ts">
import Vue from 'vue';
import colors from '#/scss/vars.scss';
export default Vue.extend({
mounted() {
console.log(colors.cursor);
},
});
</script>
<style >
</style>
I have read approximately 30 different stackoverflow questions that appear to be dealing with the similar problem of importing variables into the style block of the .vue file, as well as the identical problem of importing the variables directly into the Javascript code. As a result, my webpack.config.js looks like the following:
root/webpack.config.js
const path = require('path');
const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin');
const CleanWebpackPlugin = require('clean-webpack-plugin');
const webpack = require('webpack');
const VueLoaderPlugin = require('vue-loader/lib/plugin');
const env = process.env.NODE_ENV
module.exports = {
entry: './app/index.ts',
output: {
filename: 'main.js',
path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'staticfiles')
},
resolve: {
extensions: [ '.ts', '.js', '.vue', '.scss', '.sass'],
alias: {
'vue$': 'vue/dist/vue.esm.js',
'#': path.resolve(__dirname, '/app/')
}
},
plugins: [
new HtmlWebpackPlugin(),
new CleanWebpackPlugin(),
new webpack.HotModuleReplacementPlugin(),
new VueLoaderPlugin()
],
module: {
rules: [
{
enforce: 'pre',
test: /\.(js|vue|ts)$/,
loader: 'eslint-loader',
exclude: /node_modules/
},
{
test: /\.vue$/,
loader: 'vue-loader',
options: {
loaders: {
// Since sass-loader (weirdly) has SCSS as its default parse mode, we map
// the "scss" and "sass" values for the lang attribute to the right configs here.
// other preprocessors should work out of the box, no loader config like this necessary.
'scss': 'vue-style-loader!css-loader!sass-loader',
'sass': 'vue-style-loader!css-loader!sass-loader?indentedSyntax',
}
// other vue-loader options go here
}
},
{
test: /\.css$/,
use: [
'vue-style-loader',
'css-loader'
]
},
{
test: /\.tsx?$/,
loader: 'ts-loader',
exclude: /node_modules/,
options: {
appendTsSuffixTo: [/\.vue$/],
}
},
{
test: /\.(png|jpg|gif|svg)$/,
loader: 'file-loader',
options: {
name: '[name].[ext]?[hash]'
}
},
{
test: /\.s(a|c)ss$/,
use: [ {
loader: "style-loader",
options: {
sourceMap: env === 'development',
}
}, {
loader: "css-loader",
options: {
sourceMap: env === 'development',
}
}, {
loader: "sass-loader",
options: {
sourceMap: env === 'development',
}
},
'vue-style-loader'],
}]
}
};
I have also tried, in the test: /\.s(a|c)ss$/ section, to put vue-style-loader at the beginning of the array.
I have tried many combinations of filenames when attempting to import the .scss file, such as relative (../scss/vars.scss), removing the extension, using .css as an extension, etc.
The error I get is:
ERROR in /home/Documents/application/app/app.vue.ts
[tsl] ERROR in /home/Documents/application/app/app.vue.ts(10,28)
TS2307: Cannot find module '#/scss/vars.scss'.
My question:
In a project that uses vue-style-loader and vue-loader to build .vue files with webpack, how can I import .scss variables into the <script> portion of a .vue file? (please note - I am NOT attempting to import them into the <style> section of the .vue file)

An example based on my comment:
SCSS fragment:
$foo: #333;
body {
--variable-foo: $foo;
}
And then anywhere in the JavaScript
const value = document.body.style.getPropertyValue("--variable-foo");
console.log(value); // outputs "#333"

React reusable component library styles not loading

hey people I need help with the following:
am creating React UI component library
I am using webpack and dev build works great, scss files are loaded and components are displayed correctly
on production build, JS bundle is created as well as CSS (I use SCSS) bundle
BUT when I install the library in another React project and import the component, CSS is not loaded (cmp is not styled), JS works fine and the component is rendered yet styles are not loaded...
EDIT
Apparently this approach requires manual loading of CSS in parent app project. Which I want to avoid. Is there alternative way which can provide scenario in which styles will be resolved on the level on component without need for manual loading?
Here is my production webpack config:
const path = require('path');
const ExtractTextPlugin = require('extract-text-webpack-plugin');
const UglifyJsPlugin = require('uglifyjs-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
entry: './src/index.js',
output: {
filename: 'bundle.js',
path: path.join(__dirname, '../lib'),
libraryTarget: 'commonjs',
},
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /\.css$/,
use: ExtractTextPlugin.extract({
fallback: 'style-loader',
use: ['css-loader']
})
},
{
test: /\.scss$/,
use: ExtractTextPlugin.extract({
fallback: 'style-loader',
use: ['css-loader', 'sass-loader']
})
},
{
test: /\.js$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
loader: "babel-loader"
},
{
test: /\.svg/,
use: {
loader: 'svg-url-loader',
options: {}
}
}
]
},
externals: {
'react': 'commonjs react',
'react-dom': 'commonjs react-dom',
},
resolve: {
modules: [
path.resolve('./src'),
path.resolve('./node_modules')
]
},
plugins: [
new ExtractTextPlugin({
filename: 'ui-library.css'
})
]
};

You could simply not use ExtractTextPlugin.
The whole purpose of Webpack is to group assets not based on file type but by a component perspective.
So, if you remove ExtractTextPlugin, your CSS will be included in your .js bundle.

Webpack only generates JS, no CSS file from SCSS

In my project I use Webpack with React and NodeJS. I want to generate a bundle.js and style.css file. Currently I've got the following code:
var webpack = require('webpack')
var ExtractTextPlugin = require('extract-text-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
entry: './index.js',
output: {
path: 'public',
filename: 'bundle.js',
publicPath: ''
},
module: {
loaders: [
{
test: /\.js$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
loader: 'babel-loader',
query: {
presets: ['react', 'es2015']
}
},
{ test: /\.scss$/, loader: ExtractTextPlugin.extract('css!sass') }
]
},
plugins: [
new ExtractTextPlugin('public/style.css')
]
}
But when I run webpack only the JS file is created in the ./public map:
Asset Size Chunks Chunk Names
bundle.js 844 kB 0 [emitted] main
+ 222 hidden modules
Following examples/tutorials it's only oriented on CSS files, or obvious mistakes where made like not implementing ExtractText.
I've also downloaded the packages sass-loader node-sass. In some examples I did found those packages where included, in some they weren't.
EDIT (require style in index.js):
import React from 'react'
import { render } from 'react-dom'
import { Router, browserHistory } from 'react-router'
import routes from './modules/routes'
require('./public/style.css')
render(
<Router routes={routes} history={browserHistory} />,
document.getElementById('app')
)
EDIT (webpack.config.js):
module: {
loaders: [
{
test: /\.js$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
loader: 'babel-loader',
query: {
presets: ['react', 'es2015']
}
},
{
test : /\.scss$/,
include : path.join(__dirname, './public/sass'),
loaders : ["style", "css", "sass"]
},
{
test: /\.scss$/,
loader: ExtractTextPlugin.extract('css!sass')
}
]
},
sassLoader: {
includePaths: [path.join(__dirname, './public/sass')]
},
plugins: [
new ExtractTextPlugin(path.join(__dirname, './public/style.css'))
]
My folder structure looks like this:
webpack.config.js
index.js
/public
index.html
bundle.js (generated)
/sass
style.scss
basics.scss (imported in style.scss)

Make sure that you require your style file.
e.g.
require('../sass/app.scss');
and I think you need style loader as well
e.g.
{
test : /\.scss$/,
include : path.join(__dirname, 'sass'),
loaders : ["style", "css", "sass"]
}
These three loaders perform following operations
Turn your scss files into plain CSS with the sass loader
Resolve all the imports and url(...)s in the CSS with the help of CSS loader
Insert those styles into the page with the style loader

You need a combination of the ExtractTextPlugin and the style loader.
module: {
loaders: [
{
test: /\.scss$/,
loader: ExtractTextPlugin.extract('style-loader', 'css-loader!sass-loader'),
},
],
}
...
plugins: [
new ExtractTextPlugin(path.join(__dirname, 'public', 'style.css')),
],
In my working configs, I also have a possibly extraneous entry in resolve:
resolve: {
loaders: [
{
test: /\.(css|scss)$/,
loader: ExtractTextPlugin.extract('style-loader', 'css-loader'),
},
],
},
The other error might be how you're including it in index.js. You're using require('./public/style.css') rather than require('./public/style.scss').
