Implementing webpack's
invalid
.I needed this because I'm running an external script, to compile some files using PHP, and generating a
.js
file which should be then processed by webpack. UsingonBuildStart
did not fired it the way I thought it would, before webpack start to build things, andonBuildExit
, saves the file after everything is done, firing a new webpack watch event, which results in a loop. The real problem was that, even when I had it updated at some point (yes it kind of worked without this), it was too late for LiveReload to catch the update files.This is the use case:
CopyWebpackPlugin
is responsible for watching those external files and triggering the change event during watch.
