using ts-node reloading does not reflect any changes made in the app

[woldner]

I am unsure as to how to get this package working, either by using node or ts-node, so I've created a sample app/repo here:
https://github.com/jwldnr/koawebpack

This might not be the right place for this, but hopefully you can help me gain some clarity and this issue might help someone else in the future.

koawebpack

koa-webpack usage example

steps to reproduce

• install dependencies using yarn
  -> cd koawebpack && yarn

• compile using webpack, run app through node
  -> yarn use:node

ERROR in multi /src/App.ts
Module not found: Error: Can't resolve '/src/App.ts' in '/Users/m41n/source/repos/koawebpack'
 @ multi /src/App.ts app[0]
ℹ ｢wdm｣: Failed to compile.

• use ts-node directly
  -> yarn use:ts-node

  App compiles ok, uses WDM.
  -> Browse to http://localhost:3000/ should display "hello world"
  -> Change body response in src/App.ts e.g. ctx.body = "hello updated world"
  -> terminal showing compile activity..
  .. then refresh http://localhost:3000/, still showing old response (not updated)

Expected Behavior

when using koa-webpack to reload, it should reflect changes

Actual Behavior

compiles, but does not reflect changes

How can we reproduce the behavior?

Happy to review a PR that resolves this.

@jwldnr I met exactly the same problem! Re-compilation was done but none was changed.

• Node: 10.12.0
• koa: 2.6.1
• koa-webpack: 5.1.0
• typescript: 3.1.3

I was using Typescript + Babel + Webpack.

This is most likely a webpack configuration problem and not a direct issue with this middleware. Closing due to age.
