Webpack to build without including peer dependencies
I am building a React library and using Webpack to bundle it. I'm well aware of the concept behind dependencies and peer dependencies.
In the project, React is specified as a peer dependency.
"peerDependencies": {
"react": ">= 16.3.0",
"react-dom": ">= 16.3.0"
}
This is my build script
"build": "webpack --config webpack.config.babel.js"
and this is my webpack.config.babel.js
import path from 'path';
import CleanWebpackPlugin from 'clean-webpack-plugin';
const packageJson = require('./package.json');
export default () => ({
mode: 'production',
entry: {
index: path.join(__dirname, 'src/index.js')
},
output: {
path: path.join(__dirname, 'dist'),
filename: '[name].js',
library: packageJson.name,
libraryTarget: 'umd'
},
module: {
rules: [
{
test: /.jsx?$/,
exclude: /node_modules/,
include: path.join(__dirname, 'src'),
use: [
{
loader: 'babel-loader',
options: {
presets: ['@babel/preset-env', '@babel/preset-react']
}
}
]
},
{
test: /.(scss)$/,
loader: 'style-loader!css-loader!sass-loader'
}
]
},
resolve: {
extensions: ['.js', '.jsx', '.scss']
},
plugins: [new CleanWebpackPlugin(['dist/*.*'])],
optimization: {
splitChunks: {
name: 'vendor',
minChunks: 2
}
}
});
Every time I build, React code is included in the bundled file.
I'm unsure about how to bundle the library without including React in the bundled file.

I figured it out.
Webpack has a configuration called externals. Anything specified as an external will not be bundled together.
All I had to do was to add this config to webpack.config.babel.js
externals: {
react: 'react',
reactDOM: 'react-dom'
}
