afile.js

const baz = InjectFile('baz-obj.js');
const html = InjectFile('body.html');

InjectFile('controller-logic.js')

keyword InjectFile should be treated as a function that takes must take one parameter and a optional json object

By default it look for baz-obj.js in the same direcory where the keyword is found

you can change this by adding the 2 parameter

const baz = InjectFile('baz-obj.js' ,{"cwd":"./compiled"})

now it will look at the Root directory of the webpack process + ./compiled;

webpack-file-injector-plugin also emits a transform event after injecting the contents of a file into each chunk that you can listen to.

webpack.config.js

let InjectFile = require('webpack-file-injector-plugin');

InjectFile.options({keyword:'IncludeFile' ,beep:false , verboseLogging:true});

InjectFile.on('transform' ,function(file, filePath , callback){
//use callback to transmute file and send it the compiler
let newFile = file.replace(/[a-k]/gmi, 'stuff')

callback(newFile)
})

module.exports = {
	entry:'somepath/somefile.js',
	plugins:[
	InjectFile.plugin
	]
