如何获取webpack来编译app / js目录中的main.js文件？

Question

I am ripping my hair out here, I am trying to create a Reactjs app. I have created the folder then executed:

npm install webpack -g

Then I executed:

npm init

Completed the package.json file:

{
  "name": "reactquiz",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "This is a Reactjs quiz app",
  "main": "index.js",
  "scripts": {
    "test": "echo \"Error: no test specified\" && exit 1"
  },
  "author": "Daniel Cortes",
  "license": "ISC",
  "devDependencies": {
    "babel-core": "6.13.*",
    "babel-loader": "6.2.*",
    "webpack": "^1.13.2"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "react": "^15.3.1",
    "react-dom": "^15.3.1"
  }
}

Then I executed webpack locally:

npm install webpack --save-dev

Then I created the webpack.config.js file:

module.export = {
    entry: [
        './src/index.js'
    ],
    output: {
        path: __dirname,
        filename: 'app/js/main.js'
    },
    module: {
        loaders: [{
            test: /\.jsx?$/,
            loader: 'babel-loader',
            exclude: /node_modules/
        }]
    }

}

And I realized I still do not have a main.js file in app/js. Please help. I have looked at the webpack documentation, I have looked here, I have looked at tutorials. What is the proper way to install webpack so it generates the file in app/js/main.js?

Answer 1

The filename doesn't look right, the correct format is:

filename: './app/js/main.js'

Additionally, you didn't "execute webpack", you installed it. Did you execute the command webpack after that too?
