These types are not exported by webpack, but they are available to TypeScript consumers.
Attributes
context:
stringthe directory in which the request is placed
contextInfo:
ModuleFactoryCreateDataContextInfocontextual information
dependencyType:
stringthe category of the referencing dependency
getResolve:
(options?: ResolveOptions) => ((context: string, request: string, callback: (err?: Error | null, result?: string | false, resolveRequest?: ResolveRequest) => void) => void) | ((context: string, request: string) => Promise<string>)get a resolve function with the current resolver options
request:
stringthe request as written by the user in the require/import expression/statement
If an dependency matches exactly a property of the object, the property value is used as dependency.
Attributes
byLayer:
{ [index: string]: ExternalItem } | ((layer: string | null) => ExternalItem)Specify externals depending on the layer.
If an dependency matches exactly a property of the object, the property value is used as dependency.
[index: {string}]ExternalItemValue
The target of the external with a type, optionally with an 'interop' hint describing how its exports interoperate with ES module imports.
Attributes
interop:
"default" | "esModule"How an external's exports interoperate with ES module imports, independent of the importing module's strictness (similar to Rollup's
output.interop
). 'default': treat as CommonJS, the default import is the whole exports (Node.js semantics). 'esModule': treat as an ES module namespace, the default import is unboxed to
.default
.The target of the external with a type, optionally with an 'interop' hint describing how its exports interoperate with ES module imports.
Enable presets of externals for specific targets.
Attributes
bun:
booleanTreat bun built-in modules like 'bun', 'bun:sqlite' or 'bun:ffi' and node.js built-in modules as external and load them via import when used (for the Bun runtime).
deno:
booleanTreat node.js built-in modules like fs, path or vm as external and load them via the required 'node:' specifier when used (for the Deno runtime).
electron:
booleanTreat common electron built-in modules in main and preload context like 'electron', 'ipc' or 'shell' as external and load them via require() when used.
electronMain:
booleanTreat electron built-in modules in the main context like 'app', 'ipc-main' or 'shell' as external and load them via require() when used.
electronPreload:
booleanTreat electron built-in modules in the preload context like 'web-frame', 'ipc-renderer' or 'shell' as external and load them via require() when used.
electronRenderer:
booleanTreat electron built-in modules in the renderer context like 'web-frame', 'ipc-renderer' or 'shell' as external and load them via require() when used.
node:
booleanTreat node.js built-in modules like fs, path or vm as external and load them via require() when used.
nwjs:
booleanTreat NW.js legacy nw.gui module as external and load it via require() when used.
web:
booleanTreat references to 'http(s)://...' and 'std:...' as external and load them via import when used (Note that this changes execution order as externals are executed before any other code in the chunk).
webAsync:
booleanTreat references to 'http(s)://...' and 'std:...' as external and load them via async import() when used (Note that this external type is an async module, which has various effects on the execution).
