CSS files are deleted when using together with CopyWebpackPlugin

creage opened this issue 5 years ago · 8 comments

In my webpack config I have my main entry with HTML+CSS, and I want this CSS to be injected. I use simple

new HtmlInlineCSSWebpackPlugin()

for doing this, and it works fine.

I also have a CopyWebpackPlugin, which copies some third party lib, which includes HTML+CSS files in its assets.

These CSS files are removed when being copied. They are not removed if I use leaveCSSFile: true, but then the CSS file from main entry is not removed either.

I wonder why does this plugin deal with files from other plugin? But even if it does - I would expect these CSS get injected correctly in all HTML+CSS pairs it deals with. Currently it only REMOVES all of CSS files, without injecting them.

Hi @creage, Sorry for the delayed response. Can you provide a minimal demo to reproduce the issue?

@runjuu here you go html-inline-css-webpack-plugin-broken

npm i
npm run build

Then check contents of dest/vendor folder. It should have both index.html and index.css, but has .html file only.

BTW, filtering on assets also works 😃

new HtmlInlineCSSWebpackPlugin({
	filter(name) {
		// don't mess the vendor styles!
		return !name.includes('vendor');
	}
})
