nodeExternals

Simple modern alternative to webpack-node-externals.

This utility function marks all dependencies from node_modules as external. It means that such dependencies will not be included to bundle.

Typically it can be useful when you bundle server application for running in Node.js.

Usage

import { nodeExternals } from '@kruoo/utils/rspack';

export default {
  mode: 'development',
  target: 'node',
  output: {
    filename: 'index.js'
  }
  externalsPresets: {
    node: true,
  },
  externals: [
    nodeExternals(),
  ],
};

Option allow

To force add some dependencies to bundle you can use allow option:

nodeExternals({
  allow: ['@my-org/my-components', /(react|react-dom)/],
});

By default it contains css-loader because it injects some code into runtime.
