I'm trying to learn React and the whole environment built around it. I do that by trying to construct my own dev-stack.
The problem I can't get across for a very long time is how to serve CSS/Images while not loosing a power of server rendering.
I've read a couple of tutorials and discovered webpack-isomorphic-tools
I've configured them and managed to get an images supported, sass (transformed to css) as well.
However, I came across an issue that my webpack-assets.json
file is not generated, instead I see this output. ( I managed to get it generated on a 2nd run of npm start
before this commit, but that was definitely not a way to go , but it showed that the plugin works when a file is present.)
$ npm start
> redux-universal-example@0.0.0 start /Users/janvorcak/learning2016
> node src/server/index.js
[webpack-isomorphic-tools] (waiting for the first Webpack build to finish)
[webpack-isomorphic-tools] (waiting for the first Webpack build to finish)
[webpack-isomorphic-tools] (waiting for the first Webpack build to finish)
[webpack-isomorphic-tools] (waiting for the first Webpack build to finish)
I understand the purpose of this file, but I can't really figure out why it's not generated at all.
Is there anything that I'm missing? Here are the relevant files and a repository
- https://github.com/jvorcak/universal-react-kit/tree/sass-loader
(sass-loader branch on my
universal-react-kit
repository) - configuration - https://github.com/jvorcak/universal-react-kit/blob/sass-loader/webpack-isomorphic-tools-configuration.js
- webpack.config.js - https://github.com/jvorcak/universal-react-kit/blob/sass-loader/webpack.config.js
- entry file when running a server https://github.com/jvorcak/universal-react-kit/blob/sass-loader/src/server/index.js
Could somebody please explain what is going on, I've read documentation, blogs, but I'm missing something here. Thank you.
