split-by-name-webpack2-plugin

soundcloud/split-by-name-webpack-plugin fork that works with webpack2. It allows you to split bundle into multiple chunks based on location of the modules. Node.js 6+.

Installation

npm install split-by-name-webpack2-plugin --save-dev

Usage

Given

node_modules/...
src/index.js

(where src/index.js is referencing some of the modules in node_modules)

and webpack.config.js

var SplitByNamePlugin = require('split-by-name-webpack2-plugin')
 
module.exports = {
  entry: {
    index: 'src/index.js'
  },
  output: {
    path: __dirname + '/build',
    filename: "[name].js"
  },
  plugins: [
    new SplitByNamePlugin({
      buckets: [{
        name: 'vendor',
        regex: /\/node_modules\//
      }]
    })
  ]
}

webpack (tested on webpack@2.1.0-beta.20) will produce

build/{vendor,index}.js

(where build/vendor.js contains require(...)d node_modules/...)
