This loader should not expect `--watch` for the dev server about elm-webpack-loader HOT 9 CLOSED

@lukewestby Any update on when we can expect version 8.0.0 to be available on npm?

from elm-webpack-loader.

We may have to publish it ourselves.

from elm-webpack-loader.

#199 was merged

from elm-webpack-loader.

The actual configuration that works for me is adding watch in the webpack config. e.g.

{
  ...
   watch: true
}

Will close this and make a PR for the readme

from elm-webpack-loader.

The watch: true worked with the webpack cli version 4.4.0. But doesn't with 4.5.0.
Unsure what is going on.

from elm-webpack-loader.

In https://webpack.js.org/configuration/watch/ it says that In webpack-dev-server and webpack-dev-middleware watch mode is enabled by default.

However when running the server I get compiler.options.watch == false

It appears that is not the proper way to do it anymore.

Fixed in #199

from elm-webpack-loader.

This is getting increasingly painful. Hope the PR can be merged quickly

from elm-webpack-loader.

This will be on npm in the next day or so, but in the mean time you can put "elm-community/elm-webpack-loader#8.0.0" as the elm-webpack-loader version in your package.json and it will grab the package directly from github. If you do this you might need to go into node_modules and delete the elm-webpack-loader directory first.
