Output folder

[david-hollifield]

My plugin config looks like

poco("./typings",
    ["../../PF Api/PhotoFinale.Api.Entities/*.cs"],
    {
        //options go here
    }
)

but the d.ts files are still showing up in /dist/typings. Am I missing something?

Can you send me your code or a sample where you can reproduce this?

[david-hollifield]

FYI: While I was putting together a sample, it looks like the folder defined as the first arg to poco() is relative to the webpack output.path folder.

Was this resolved in your latest PR @david-hollifield?

[david-hollifield]

That one was not resolved with my PR. I couldn't get the location to move from output.path relative. So I worked around the issue like this:

// Where webpack looks to start building the bundle
    entry: {
        "dummy": root("typings/dummy.ts")
    },

    // The top-level output key contains set of options instructing webpack on how and 
    // where it should output your bundles, assets and anything else you bundle or load with webpack.
    output: {
        // The output directory as an absolute path.
        path: root("/typings/my-entities"),

        // This option determines the name of each output bundle. The bundle is written to the directory specified by the output.path option.
        // IMPORTANT: You must not specify an absolute path here!
        filename: "[name].js"
    },

    // Used to customize the webpack build process in a variety of ways.
    plugins: [
        poco(
            ".",
            [
                "../../Entities/*.cs"
            ],
     ...

Kinda hacky, but it works.

[ffMathy]

What is the hacky part of it?

[david-hollifield]

Just having to create a dummy.ts and entry. Probably no other way around it since that's the way webpack works, but this does make it necessary to have a special webpack-typings.config.js since the output folder is usually set to /dist and the typings are usually in /typings in a typical build. So having the same config that creates the typings and builds your /dist is a little harder to do.
