sharepointplus-loader v1.1.7

sharepointplus-loader

Webpack plugin that permits to leverage tree-shaking for https://aymkdn.github.io/SharepointPlus/ (starting from SharepointPlus v6.0)

Installation

npm install sharepointplus-loader

And, for regular Webpack config file (e.g. webpack.conf.js), add it to the plugins:

// ----- file 'webpack.conf.js'
const webpack = require('webpack');
const SharepointPlusLoaderPlugin = require('sharepointplus-loader/plugin'); // load the plugin
module.exports = {
  [ ... your configuration ...],
  plugins:[
    new SharepointPlusLoaderPlugin() // add the plugin here
  ]
};

Or if you work with SPFx you have to edit your gulpfile.js file:

// ----- file 'gulpfile.js'
const gulp = require('gulp');
const build = require('@microsoft/sp-build-web');
[ ... your configuration ... ]

// add the plugin with the below block of code:
const webpack = require('webpack');
const SharepointPlusLoaderPlugin = require('sharepointplus-loader/plugin'); // load the plugin
build.configureWebpack.mergeConfig({
  additionalConfiguration: (generatedConfig) => {
    if (!Array.isArray(generatedConfig.plugins)) generatedConfig.plugins=[];
    generatedConfig.plugins.push(new SharepointPlusLoaderPlugin()); // add the plugin here
    // return modified config => SPFx build pipeline
    return generatedConfig;
  }
});

build.initialize(gulp);

How it works

The plugin will analyze your code, in files with extension .js, .jsx, .ts and .vue, to detect the below line:

import $SP from 'sharepointplus'

Then it will replace it with a similar code as the one below:

import spInit from 'sharepointplus/es5/init.js'
import list from 'sharepointplus/es5/lists/list.js' // if `$SP().list()` is used in the analyzed file
import get from 'sharepointplus/es5/lists/get.js' // if `$SP().list().get()` is used in the analyzed file
import getPeopleLookup from 'sharepointplus/es5/utils/getPeopleLookup.js'  // if `$SP().getPeopleLookup()` is used in the analyzed file
const $SP = spInit({'list':list, 'get':get, 'getPeopleLookup':getPeopleLookup });

Complex project

If your project has several files using SharepointPlus, but you only want to load it as a global object with only what matters, then you can use // sp-loader-path: "./path/" in your main file.

Example with the below hierarchy:

.
+-- classes/
| |-- Files.js
| +-- Folders.js
+-- components/
| |-- App.vue
| |-- Header.vue
| +-- Footer.vue
+-- plugins/
| +-- vuetify.js
+-- store/
| |-- files.js
| |-- folders.js
| +-- list.js
+-- index.js

We have several calls of $SP() all other the place, but we want all of them to be loaded by index.js. We will only call import $SP from 'sharepointplus' in index.js and we'll use sp-loader-path as the below:

// index.js – before sharepoint-loader has analyzed it

// Load $SP modules from files in the below path,
//   using glob patterns (see https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob#readme)
// sp-loader-path: "./classes/**"
// sp-loader-path: "./components/**"
// sp-loader-path: "./store/**"
import $SP from 'sharepointplus'
global.$SP = $SP; // to make sure it will be available everywhere

Once sharepointplus-loader has analyzed the file, it will convert it to load all the necessary modules:

// index.js – after sharepoint-loader has analyzed it

// all the modules from the sub files have been listed and are loaded
