webpack-git-version-plugin

Write the hash value of the current commit of the code to the js and css chunk file.

将最近一次 Git 提交记录的 hash 值写到 chunk 文件中。

Why

After an online problem occurs in the current project, we need to know the version of the problem code and whether the problem is caused by the cache not being refreshed. Writing the hash value of the current git commit to the file can help us analyze these situations.

Getting Started

To begin, you'll need to install webpack-git-version-plugin:

$ npm install webpack-git-version-plugin --save-dev

Then add the plugin to your webpack config. For example:

webpack.config.js

const GitVersionPlugin = require('webpack-git-version-plugin');

module.exports = {
  plugins: [new GitVersionPlugin()],
};

Example chunk files

JS file:

CSS file:

Configuration

processor

Type: function Default: null

Function for processing git hash value, which can be used to add prefix or encryption to the output value.

webpack.config.js

const GitVersionPlugin = require('webpack-git-version-plugin');

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    new GitVersionPlugin({
      processor: (hashData) =>
        `Git Version: ${Buffer.from(hashData).toString('base64')}`,
    }),
  ],
};

The generated chunk file:
