Module not found: Error: Cannot resolve module 'html'

[Olgagr]

Current behaviour 💣

I'm trying to load a custom template in my main template file. I checked the docs: https://github.com/jantimon/html-webpack-plugin/blob/v2.26.0/examples/custom-template/template.html

In my main template file I do (this is .ejs file):

<%= require('html!./test.html') %>

Then I get an error:

ERROR in ./~/html-webpack-plugin/lib/loader.js!./lib/template.ejs
Module not found: Error: Cannot resolve module 'html' in /Users/xxx/Documents/projects/project/lib
@ ./~/html-webpack-plugin/lib/loader.js!./lib/template.ejs 9:10-37

Expected behaviour ☀️

I can load a custom template with required
