OpenPack

Opens a new browser tab when Webpack loads.

OpenPack is similar to open-browser-webpack-plugin but with more options and very friendly to use with webpack-dev-server.

Usage

All options are optional.

var OpenPackPlugin = require("openpack");
module.exports = {
  // webpack-dev-server's options
  devServer: {
    host: "0.0.0.0",
    port: "12345",
    https: true
  },
  plugins: [
    new OpenPackPlugin({
      browser: "chrome", // which browser you want to open URL.

      url: "https://www.google.com", // which URL you want open.Set this will ignores all below options.

      host: "localhost", // the host of URL. Default is `devServer.host` or 'localhost'
      lan: true, // if set to true, then host will be a LAN IP address instead, so that other devices in the same LAN can access your server. Note: you must set devServer's host to '0.0.0.0' to enable this feture.
      port: "8080", // the port of URL. Default is `devServer.port` or '8080',
      path: "/index.html?query=string#hash" // the full path of URL. Default is '/'
    })
  ]
};

Example

Open the devServer URL.

var OpenPackPlugin = require("openpack");
module.exports = {
  devServer: {
    host: "127.0.0.1",
    port: "12345",
    https: true
  },
  plugins: [
    // will open 'https://127.0.0.1:12345/'
    new OpenPackPlugin()
  ]
};

Open devServer URL with LAN IP address

var OpenPackPlugin = require("openpack");
module.exports = {
  devServer: {
    host: "0.0.0.0"
  },
  plugins: [
    // if your LAN IP address is '172.16.27.83', then will open 'http://172.16.27.83:8080/'
    new OpenPackPlugin({
      lan: true
    })
  ]
};

Open a URL you want

var OpenPackPlugin = require("openpack");
module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    // will open 'https://www.google.com/'
    new OpenPackPlugin("https://www.google.com/")
  ]
};
