Angular 7自定义webpack.config.js

Question

since newest Angular has deprecated 'ng eject' command, I've started my project with adding custom file with webpack.config named:

extra-webpack.config.js

I've followed this tutorial: https://codeburst.io/customizing-angular-cli-6-build-an-alternative-to-ng-eject-a48304cd3b21

I have configured everything and it seems to work fine. My problem is, that I would like to set my new file

extra-webpack.config.js

to work only when I start command

"npm run start:dev"

, I don't want to use it when I start

"npm run start:prod"

I've tried to make an if statement, to check if environment is not set to production on module.exports, but I can't gather environment from environment.ts file. I've tried with: import {environment} from './src/environments/environment';

Can anyone help me with proper configuration? Thanks a lot

Here is my extra-webpack.config.js file:

'use strict'; 
const path = require('path'); const ForkTsCheckerWebpackPlugin = 
require('fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin');

module.exports = {
    optimization: {
        splitChunks: {

          maxInitialRequests: 3,
          automaticNameDelimiter: '~',
          name: true,
          cacheGroups: {

            },
            default: {

              reuseExistingChunk: true
            }
          }
        }
      },
    context: __dirname,
    output: {
        pathinfo: false
    },
    mode: 'development',
    optimization: {
        removeAvailableModules: false,
        removeEmptyChunks: false,
        splitChunks: false
    },
    module: {
        rules: [
            {
                test: /\.ts?$/,
                include: path.resolve(__dirname, 'src'),
                use: [{
                    loader: 'ts-loader',
                    options: {
                        transpileOnly: true,

                    },
                }]
              }
        ]
    },
    resolve: {
        extensions: [ '.ts', '.js' ]
    },
    plugins: [
        new ForkTsCheckerWebpackPlugin({
            tslint: true
        })
    ]
};

          }
        }
      }
    }   },   "defaultProject": "my-portal" }

I have also noticed that, if I removed:

plugins: [
        new ForkTsCheckerWebpackPlugin({
            tslint: true
        })
    ]

from webpack configuration, I'm able to run it with

npm run start:prod

You just need to MOVE the config of

"customWebpackConfig": {
  "path": "./extra-webpack.config.js"
},

to under configurations:production to make it customized for that production configuration

"configurations": {
  "production": {
    "customWebpackConfig": {
      "path": "./extra-webpack.config.js"
    },
    "fileReplacements": [],
...
