Node Modules List Webpack Plugin

Exports metadata of all used node modules of a webpack bundle to a file.

Usage

This plugin creates a list with the name, version, license, and link to the repo of each node module in the webpack bundle. The output file name can be configured, and defaults to npm-modules.md

const ExportNodeModules = require('webpack-node-modules-list');

module.exports = {
plugins: [
  new ExportNodeModules()
]}

Options

An options object may be passed to the constructor.

options.chunkName

This option allows to filter the output so that it only includes chunks with a matching chunk name.

options.outputFile

This option allows to change the name of the output file. The file path is relative to the webpack output directory.

options.format

This option allows to change the output format. markdown and json are supported.

Example

This plugin works perfectly with the SplitByPathPlugin plugin. The example below demonstrates all configurable features.

const ExportNodeModules = require('webpack-node-modules-list'),
  SplitByPathPlugin = require('webpack-split-by-path'),
  chunkName = 'vendor';

module.exports = {
plugins: [
  new SplitByPathPlugin([
    {
      name: chunkName,
      path: path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules')
    }
  ]),
  new ExportNodeModules({chunkName, outputFile: 'npm', format: 'markdown'})
]}
