When running the project in dev mode, kotlin files...

# javascript

[Robert Jaros]

When running the project in dev mode, kotlin files from `src/main/kotlin' are compiled into build/js/packages/[name]/kotlin/[name].js but resources from src/main/resources are put into build/processedResources/Js/main/. When I try to require something from my code, webpack is unable to find these resources. Can it be configured somehow?

[Big Chungus]

Odd, never had this issue myself. Are you using dce plugin as well?

[Robert Jaros]

No difference. It's the same.

[Big Chungus]

Ah, i remember now. You need to include processed resources to webpack resolver dirs via webpack.d

[Big Chungus]

It can be relative url so shouldn't be an issue with project's portability

[Robert Jaros]

how can i do this?

[Big Chungus]

Just append an array in generated webpack.config with the dir path

[Big Chungus]

Have a look at generated webpack.config to see how js transpiled sources are included

[Big Chungus]

Hopefully this will become default for v1.3.70

[Robert Jaros]

thx, it's working

[Big Chungus]

Glad to help

[Robert Jaros]

did you managed to get hot reload working?

[Robert Jaros]

I've got an error after source code change

[Robert Jaros]

shouldn't it work out of the box with new plugin? 🙂

[Big Chungus]

Umm, kinda. But it's so buggy and unreliable that i just restart the server via gradle continuous task

[Big Chungus]

The most reloads I've managed to get without it crashing was 3 or 4

[Robert Jaros]

ok thx, I'll try to fight with this problem a bit as well ... 🙂

[Big Chungus]

Wouldn't recommend it, best just wait for next release

[Robert Jaros]

Enabling polling with:

config.devServer.watchOptions = {
            aggregateTimeout: 1000,
            poll: 100
    };

makes hot reload work quite stable (even for non minified, 14MB kvision app)

[Big Chungus]

Ah, yes. This is something that has made it better for me when i tried it as well, but in the end it'd still crash every now and then

[Big Chungus]

But at least it's reasonably stable with this

[Robert Jaros]

Any success in working around https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-34287 ? 🙂

[Big Chungus]

Honestly, haven't faced this issue yet. But then again, it's been over a month since I've last worked with js side of kotlin

@Gurupad Mamadapur [FH]: In webpack.config.d/webpack.js I have:

config.resolve.modules.push("../../processedResources/Js/main");
