ManifestPlugin is not a constructor

[Mati365]

const ManifestPlugin = require('webpack-manifest-plugin');

new ManifestPlugin

causes the problem

        const { WebpackManifestPlugin } = require('webpack-manifest-plugin');

        new WebpackManifestPlugin({
            fileName: './manifest.json',
            publicPath: '/static/react/',
        }),

Works for me : )

I had this issue just now, and it turned out to be because npm i webpack-manifest-plugin had inexplicably installed version 2.2.0 (why?), which doesn't export the same way. npm i webpack-manifest-plugin@latest installed 4.0.2 and that fixed it. Hope this is of use to anyone else ending up here.

Honestly people, read the documentation: https://github.com/shellscape/webpack-manifest-plugin#usage

Or check the code: https://github.com/shellscape/webpack-manifest-plugin/blob/master/src/index.ts#L65
