Using Vue 3, how do I add path-browserify to vue.config.js?
module.exports = {
chainWebpack: config => {}
}
I am receiving the following error when compiling:
BREAKING CHANGE: webpack < 5 used to include polyfills for node.js core modules by default.
This is no longer the case. Verify if you need this module and configure a polyfill for it.
If you want to include a polyfill, you need to:
- add a fallback 'resolve.fallback: { "path": require.resolve("path-browserify") }'
- install 'path-browserify'
If you don't want to include a polyfill, you can use an empty module like this:
resolve.fallback: { "path": false }
Webpack 5 removed some things that Webpack 4 included in the bundle.
To get it all back in a vue3 app you can use the polyfill plugin. From a vanilla create-vue-app with babel:
> npm i node-polyfill-webpack-plugin
babel.config.js
module.exports = {
presets: [
'@vue/cli-plugin-babel/preset'
]
}
vue.config.js
const { defineConfig } = require("@vue/cli-service");
const NodePolyfillPlugin = require("node-polyfill-webpack-plugin");
module.exports = defineConfig({
transpileDependencies: true,
configureWebpack: {
plugins: [new NodePolyfillPlugin()],
optimization: {
splitChunks: {
chunks: "all",
},
},
},
});
With @Zack's help:
const NodePolyfillPlugin = require('node-polyfill-webpack-plugin')
module.exports = {
chainWebpack: config => {
config.plugin('polyfills').use(NodePolyfillPlugin)
},
}
