IgnorePlugin

IgnorePlugin

Prevent generation of modules for import or require calls matching the following regular expressions:

• requestRegExp A RegExp to test the request against.
• contextRegExp (optional) A RegExp to test the context (directory) against.

new webpack.IgnorePlugin(requestRegExp, [contextRegExp])

The following examples demonstrate a few ways this plugin can be used.

Ignore Moment Locales

As of moment 2.18, all locales are bundled together with the core library (see this GitHub issue). You can use the IgnorePlugin to stop any locale being bundled with moment:

new webpack.IgnorePlugin(/^\.\/locale$/, /moment$/)
