The bundle is generated by running “webpack” directly - gulp is no longer needed as an intermediary. The resulting config is a lot shorter, although more configuration is pushed into lib.js. Modules are shared between javascript files as global variables. Although this global state pollution is a bit messy, I don’t think it’s practically any worse than the previous state, and it highlights the heavy coupling between the different packages we have in place. Reducing the width of the coupling between the core javascript and add-on modules would probably be a better way of dealing with this than replacing global variables with some other kind of global state. The web pack execution seems roughly twice as fast - if I clear out my framework/client/dist/js folder, it takes 13.3s to rebuild. However, it’s not rebuilding other files inside dist, only the bundle files. CSS files are now included from javascript and incorporated into bundle.css by the webpack. Although the style-loader is helpful in some dev workflows (it allows live reload), it introduces a flash of unstyled content which makes it inappropriate for production. Instead ExtractTextPlugin is used to write all the aggregated CSS into a single bundle.css file. A style-loader-based configuration could be introduced for dev environments, if we make use of the webpack live reloader in the future. Note that the following features have been removed as they don't appear to be necessary when using Webpack: - UMD module generation - thirdparty dist file copying LeftAndMain.js deps: Without it, ssui.core.js gets loaded too late, which leads e.g. to buttons being initialised without this added behaviour. |
