How to create your own plugin?

We want to achieve universality, so we give you the opportunity to create public plugins or create them directly in the project folder.

Instruction (public plugin)

Name of the plugin

Please not that the plugin must have prefix ness-, it is required, otherwise the plugin will not be available in the project.

Let's create a plugin with the following configuration.

your_plugin/index.js

/*    *    function install used to install the plugin.     *    contains two arguments(webpack configuration and plugin configuration)    *    *    config - webpack configuration    *    options = {    *        target: 'web' || 'node',    *        env: 'prod'   || 'dev',    *    }    *   Also options contains options from ness.config.js*/'use strict';module.exports = {    install(config, options) {        ...        return config;    }};

After modification webpack configuration, the plugin must return changed configuration. After all done, please test your plugin localy and then push to NPM registry publicaly.

Configuration

./ness.config.js

module.exports = {    "plugins": [        ...        {            name: 'your-plugin-name', // plugin name name without prefix            config: {...}        }    ]}

Instruction (local plugin)

This way the same, but you must use parameter entrypoint in ness.config.js

your_plugin/index.js

/*    *    function install used to install the plugin.     *    contains two arguments(webpack configuration and plugin configuration)    *    *    config - webpack configuration    *    options = {    *        target: 'web' || 'node',    *        env: 'prod'   || 'dev',    *    }    *   Also options contains options from ness.config.js*/'use strict';module.exports = {    install(config, options) {        ...        return config;    }};

Configuration in ./ness.config.js

const path = require('path');module.exports = {    "plugins": [        ...        {            entrypoint: path.join(__dirname, 'src', 'plugins/your-plugin.js'),            config: {...}        }    ]}
