A plugin for react-app-rewired to remove unwanted webpack plugins from the react-create-app config.

react-app-rewire-unplug

A plugin for react-app-rewired. It removes unwanted webpack plugins from the default react-create-app configuration.

Installation

$ npm install react-app-rewire-unplug --only=dev

Usage

Add the following to your config-overrides.js file. See react-app-rewired for more information regarding this file.

const removeWebpackPlugins = require ('react-app-rewire-unplug');

The following code removes two webpack plugins from the config. You would put this in the config's override function.

config = removeWebpackPlugins(config, env, {
    pluginNames: ['SWPrecacheWebpackPlugin', 'NonExistentPlugin'],
    verbose: true
});

What happens here:

• The default SW in your CRA, SWPrecacheWebpackPlugin will be removed. Now you could create your own Service Worker.
• Because there's no NonExistentPlugin present in the default CRA config, no other plugins would be removed.
• The verbose option reports this in a single line to the console.

Options

Configure the third parameter of removeWebpackPlugins as an object with the following optional properties:

• pluginNames (string[]) : a string Array containing any plugins to look for and remove.
• verbose (boolean) : report any removed plugins in the console.
