Webpack doesn't create right paths for images in production css file












0















To add images into the project i'm using content: url() css property inside sass file and specify relative path to src folder e.g. content: url('/images/right-arrow.svg');.



The problem is that in production build i need to get rid of the first slash to have such path ('images/right-arrow.svg') inside of a bundled css file.



The only way i could get desired behaviour is to use url: false option for css-loader, and writing path without slash in sass file: content: url('/images/right-arrow.svg'), but such option don't add necessary file from node_modules e.g. fonts and images.



Webpack Config:



return {
entry: ['babel-polyfill', './src/app.js'],
output: {
path: path.join(__dirname, 'public/'),
filename: '[name].[hash].js',
},
mode: isProduction || 'development',
module: {
rules: [
{
loader: 'babel-loader',
test: /.js$/,
exclude: /node_modules/
},

{
test: /.s?css$/,
use: [
isProduction ? MiniCssExtractPlugin.loader : 'style-loader',
{
loader: 'css-loader',
options: {
url: true
}
},
'sass-loader'
]
},

{
test: /.(svg|gif|png)$/,
use: {
loader: 'file-loader',
options: {
name: '[name].[ext]',
outputPath: 'images'
}

}
},

{
test: /.(otf|woff2|ttf|eot|woff)$/,
use: {
loader: 'file-loader',
options: {
name: '[name].[ext]',
outputPath: 'fonts/'
}
}
}

]
}


What am i missing in webpack config to achieve paths to work correcty?

          Ok, I've solved the issue. I was using resolve-url-loader with no results, before @Ujin suggested to use it. After his comment I've clarified what resolve-url-loader does and cofigured it propertly to solve my issue. The main problem is that I've missed to read important paragraph of resolve-url-loader docs, which says:




          source-maps required for loaders preceding resolve-url-loader (regardless of devtool).




          Also I didn't use root option of resolve-url-loader plugin. So, webpack config for .scss files looks like this:
