webpack-vue-cli配置详解

bulid文件夹

1. build.js
2. webpack.base.conf.js
3. webpack.dev.conf.js
4. webpack.prod.conf.js
5. dev-server.js
6. utils.js

config文件夹

1. index.js

然后我们具体看下文件里的代码 bluid.js

/**

 2. 删除创建目标文件夹
 3. webpack编译
 4. 输出信息
 */
require('./check-versions')()

// 用于在控制台输出带颜色字体的插件
var chalk = require('chalk')
var webpack = require('webpack')
var config = require('../config')
var webpackConfig = require('./webpack.prod.conf')

var spinner = ora('building for production...')
spinner.start() //开启loading动画

// 递归删除旧的目标文件夹
rm(path.join(config.build.assetsRoot, config.build.assetsSubDirectory), err => {
  if (err) throw err
  // webpack编译
  webpack(webpackConfig, function (err, stats) {

dev-server.js 首先来看执行”npm run dev”时候最先执行的build/dev-server.js文件。该文件主要完成下面几件事情：

1. 检查node和npm的版本
2. 引入相关插件和配置
3. 创建express服务器和webpack编译器
4. 配置开发中间件（webpack-dev-middleware）和热重载中间件（webpack-hot-middleware）
5. 挂载代理服务和中间件
6. 配置静态资源
7. 启动服务器监听特定端口（8080）
8. 自动打开浏览器并打开特定网址（localhost:8080） 说明： express服务器提供静态文件服务，不过它还使用了http-proxy-middleware，一个http请求代理的中间件。前端开发过程中需要使用到后台的API的话，可以通过配置proxyTable来将相应的后台请求代理到专用的API服务器

// 检查NodeJS和npm的版本
require('./check-versions')()

var config = require('../config')
// 如果Node的环境变量中没有设置当前的环境（NODE_ENV），则使用config中的配置作为当前的环境
if (!process.env.NODE_ENV) {
  process.env.NODE_ENV = JSON.parse(config.dev.env.NODE_ENV)
}

// 一个可以调用默认软件打开网址、图片、文件等内容的插件
// 这里用它来调用默认浏览器打开dev-server监听的端口，例如：localhost:8080
var opn = require('opn')
var path = require('path')
var express = require('express')
var webpack = require('webpack')

// 一个express中间件，用于将http请求代理到其他服务器
// 例：localhost:8080/api/xxx  -->  localhost:3000/api/xxx
// 这里使用该插件可以将前端开发中涉及到的请求代理到API服务器上，方便与服务器对接
var proxyMiddleware = require('http-proxy-middleware')
var webpackConfig = require('./webpack.dev.conf')

// default port where dev server listens for incoming traffic
// dev-server 监听的端口，默认为config.dev.port设置的端口，即8080
var port = process.env.PORT || config.dev.port
// automatically open browser, if not set will be false
// 用于判断是否要自动打开浏览器的布尔变量，当配置文件中没有设置自动打开浏览器的时候其值为 false
var autoOpenBrowser = !!config.dev.autoOpenBrowser
// Define HTTP proxies to your custom API backend
// https://github.com/chimurai/http-proxy-middleware
// 定义 HTTP 代理表，代理到 API 服务器
var proxyTable = config.dev.proxyTable

var app = express()
// 根据webpack配置文件创建Compiler对象
var compiler = webpack(webpackConfig)

// webpack-dev-middleware使用compiler对象来对相应的文件进行编译和绑定
// 编译绑定后将得到的产物存放在内存中而没有写进磁盘
// 将这个中间件交给express使用之后即可访问这些编译后的产品文件
var devMiddleware = require('webpack-dev-middleware')(compiler, {
  publicPath: webpackConfig.output.publicPath,
  quiet: true
})

// webpack-hot-middleware，用于实现热重载功能的中间件
var hotMiddleware = require('webpack-hot-middleware')(compiler, {
  log: () => {}
})

// force page reload when html-webpack-plugin template changes
// 当html-webpack-plugin提交之后通过热重载中间件发布重载动作使得页面重载
compiler.plugin('compilation', function (compilation) {
  compilation.plugin('html-webpack-plugin-after-emit', function (data, cb) {
    hotMiddleware.publish({ action: 'reload' })
    cb()
  })
})

// proxy api requests
// 将 proxyTable 中的代理请求配置挂在到express服务器上
Object.keys(proxyTable).forEach(function (context) {
  var options = proxyTable[context]
  if (typeof options === 'string') {
    options = { target: options }
  }
  app.use(proxyMiddleware(options.filter || context, options))
})

// handle fallback for HTML5 history API
// 重定向不存在的URL，常用于SPA
app.use(require('connect-history-api-fallback')())

// serve webpack bundle output
// 使用webpack开发中间件
// 即将webpack编译后输出到内存中的文件资源挂到express服务器上
app.use(devMiddleware)

// enable hot-reload and state-preserving
// compilation error display
// 将热重载中间件挂在到express服务器上
app.use(hotMiddleware)

// serve pure static assets
// 将静态资源挂到express服务器上
var staticPath = path.posix.join(config.dev.assetsPublicPath, config.dev.assetsSubDirectory)
app.use(staticPath, express.static('./static'))

var uri = 'http://localhost:' + port

var _resolve
var readyPromise = new Promise(resolve => {
  _resolve = resolve
})

// 控制台输入启动信息
console.log('> Starting dev server...')
devMiddleware.waitUntilValid(() => {
  console.log('> Listening at ' + uri + '\n')
  // when env is testing, don't need open it
  if (autoOpenBrowser && process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'testing') {
    opn(uri)
  }
  _resolve()
})

// 监听端口
var server = app.listen(port)

module.exports = {
  ready: readyPromise,
  close: () => {
    server.close()
  }
}

config文件夹下的index.js 在这里面描述了开发和构建两种环境下的配置，前面的build文件夹下也有不少文件引用了index.js里面的配置

// see http://vuejs-templates.github.io/webpack for documentation.
var path = require('path')

module.exports = {
  build: {
    env: require('./prod.env'),
    index: path.resolve(__dirname, '../dist/index.html'),
    assetsRoot: path.resolve(__dirname, '../dist'),
    assetsSubDirectory: 'static',
    assetsPublicPath: '/',
    productionSourceMap: true,
    // Gzip off by default as many popular static hosts such as
    // Surge or Netlify already gzip all static assets for you.
    // Before setting to `true`, make sure to:
    // npm install --save-dev compression-webpack-plugin
    productionGzip: false,
    productionGzipExtensions: ['js', 'css'],
    // Run the build command with an extra argument to
    // View the bundle analyzer report after build finishes:
    // `npm run build --report`
    // Set to `true` or `false` to always turn it on or off
    bundleAnalyzerReport: process.env.npm_config_report
  },
  dev: {
    env: require('./dev.env'),
    port: 8080,
    autoOpenBrowser: true,
    assetsSubDirectory: 'static',
    assetsPublicPath: '/',
    proxyTable: {},
    // CSS Sourcemaps off by default because relative paths are "buggy"
    // with this option, according to the CSS-Loader README
    // (https://github.com/webpack/css-loader#sourcemaps)
    // In our experience, they generally work as expected,
    // just be aware of this issue when enabling this option.
    cssSourceMap: false
  }
}

还有就是build文件夹下面两个比较简单的文件 dev-client.js似乎没有使用到，代码也比较简单，这里不多讲。 check-version.js完成对node和npm的版本检测

之前没学webpack&vue的时候用这个cli工具用的比较蛋疼，然后刚好有时间去看下这里面的配置。 还是熟悉了很多，至少知道了这些代码的意义，做的事情的哪些。算是对webpack这个打包工具的初识吧。
