Installation

npm i --save-dev image-config-webpack-plugin

Webpack Config

In most projects you will need to set up project specific options but you can still use all or some common-config-webpack-plugin parts.

const ImageConfigWebpackPlugin = require('image-config-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
  plugins: [new ImageConfigWebpackPlugin()],
};

Changing the image file name

By default the image-config-webpack-plugin adds a md5 hash of the image files content to the file name to allow long-term-caching.

For example: static/media/burger.c8ffdeb3.png

To change the file name path an option called name can be passed to the image-config-webpack-plugin.
The name option supports different placeholders.

const ImageConfigWebpackPlugin = require('image-config-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    new ImageConfigWebpackPlugin({
      name: 'media/[ext]/[name].[hash:7].[ext]',
    }),
  ],
};
