Webpack custom deploy plugin

As soon as webpack generated a bundle you can deploy it or do anything with its content. This plugin saves you some time because you do not need any watchers or reading from hard drive.

Example usage

Inside webpack.config.js:

plugins: [
        new WebpackCustomDeploy({
            destinationMapping: [
                { entry: 'main.js', path: ['serverPath', 'to', 'main.js'], isProduction: true },
                { entry: 'anotherIndexFile.js', path: ['serverPath', 'to', 'anotherIndexFile.js'], isProduction: false },
            ],

            async deployer(path, fileContent) {
                // do anything with current bundle
                await http.put('your.server', {path, fileContent});
            },

            isProductionMode: true,
        })
]

Description

destinationMapping

  { entry: 'main.js', path: ['serverPath', 'to', 'main.js'], isProduction: true },
  { entry: 'anotherIndexFile.js', path: ['serverPath', 'to', 'anotherIndexFile.js'], isProduction: false },

entry-s from destinationMapping-option corresponds to webpack entries. isProductionMode: true/false tells plugin if it is a production build. entry-s marked with isProductionMode: true is only delivered in production mode. This prevents you from accidental writing to production files.

deployer()

deployer property should either return a Promise or to be an asynchronous function.
