Extract Text Plugin

Extract text from a bundle, or bundles, into a separate file.

Install

```bash # for webpack 2 npm install --save-dev extract-text-webpack-plugin # for webpack 1 npm install --save-dev extract-text-webpack-plugin@1.0.1 ```

Usage

> :warning: For webpack v1, see [the README in the webpack-1 branch](https://github.com/webpack/extract-text-webpack-plugin/blob/webpack-1/README.md). ```js const ExtractTextPlugin = require("extract-text-webpack-plugin"); module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/, use: ExtractTextPlugin.extract({ fallback: "style-loader", use: "css-loader" }) } ] }, plugins: [ new ExtractTextPlugin("styles.css"), ] } ``` It moves all the required `*.css` modules in entry chunks into a separate CSS file. So your styles are no longer inlined into the JS bundle, but in a separate CSS file (`styles.css`). If your total stylesheet volume is big, it will be faster because the CSS bundle is loaded in parallel to the JS bundle. |Advantages|Caveats| |:---------|:------| | Fewer style tags (older IE has a limit) | Additional HTTP request | | CSS SourceMap (with `devtool: "source-map"` and `extract-text-webpack-plugin?sourceMap`) | Longer compilation time | | CSS requested in parallel | No runtime public path modification | | CSS cached separate | No Hot Module Replacement | | Faster runtime (less code and DOM operations) | ... |

Options

```js new ExtractTextPlugin(options: filename | object) ``` |Name|Type|Description| |:--:|:--:|:----------| |**`id`**|`{String}`|Unique ident for this plugin instance. (For advanced usage only, by default automatically generated)| |**`filename`**|`{String\|Function}`|Name of the result file. May contain `[name]`, `[id]` and `[contenthash]`| |**`allChunks`**|`{Boolean}`|Extract from all additional chunks too (by default it extracts only from the initial chunk(s))
When using `CommonsChunkPlugin` and there are extracted chunks (from `ExtractTextPlugin.extract`) in the commons chunk, `allChunks` **must** be set to `true`| |**`disable`**|`{Boolean}`|Disables the plugin| |**`ignoreOrder`**|`{Boolean}`|Disables order check (useful for CSS Modules!), `false` by default| * `[name]` name of the chunk * `[id]` number of the chunk * `[contenthash]` hash of the content of the extracted file > :warning: `ExtractTextPlugin` generates a file **per entry**, so you must use `[name]`, `[id]` or `[contenthash]` when using multiple entries. #### `#extract` ```js ExtractTextPlugin.extract(options: loader | object) ``` Creates an extracting loader from an existing loader. Supports loaders of type `{ loader: [name]-loader -> {String}, options: {} -> {Object} }`. |Name|Type|Description| |:--:|:--:|:----------| |**`options.use`**|`{String}`/`{Array}`/`{Object}`|Loader(s) that should be used for converting the resource to a CSS exporting module _(required)_| |**`options.fallback`**|`{String}`/`{Array}`/`{Object}`|loader(e.g `'style-loader'`) that should be used when the CSS is not extracted (i.e. in an additional chunk when `allChunks: false`)| |**`options.publicPath`**|`{String}`|Override the `publicPath` setting for this loader| #### Multiple Instances There is also an `extract` function on the instance. You should use this if you have more than one instance of `ExtractTextPlugin`. ```js const ExtractTextPlugin = require('extract-text-webpack-plugin'); // Create multiple instances const extractCSS = new ExtractTextPlugin('stylesheets/[name]-one.css'); const extractLESS = new ExtractTextPlugin('stylesheets/[name]-two.css'); module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.css$/, use: extractCSS.extract([ 'css-loader', 'postcss-loader' ]) }, { test: /\.less$/i, use: extractLESS.extract([ 'css-loader', 'less-loader' ]) }, ] }, plugins: [ extractCSS, extractLESS ] }; ``` ### Extracting Sass or LESS The configuration is the same, switch out `sass-loader` for `less-loader` when necessary. ```js const ExtractTextPlugin = require('extract-text-webpack-plugin'); module.exports = { module: { rules: [ { test: /\.scss$/, use: ExtractTextPlugin.extract({ fallback: 'style-loader', //resolve-url-loader may be chained before sass-loader if necessary use: ['css-loader', 'sass-loader'] }) } ] }, plugins: [ new ExtractTextPlugin('style.css') //if you want to pass in options, you can do so: //new ExtractTextPlugin({ // filename: 'style.css' //}) ] } ``` ### Modify filename `filename` parameter could be `Function`. It passes `getPath` to process the format like `css/[name].css` and returns the real file name, `css/js/a.css`. You can replace `css/js` with `css` then you will get the new path `css/a.css`. ```js entry: { 'js/a': "./a" }, plugins: [ new ExtractTextPlugin({ filename: (getPath) => { return getPath('css/[name].css').replace('css/js', 'css'); }, allChunks: true }) ] ```
