Hello, I tried to upgrade webpack-encore on a Symfony 5.3 project

I followed the doc well, and upgraded webpack-encore and stimulus. I also modified the controllers.json as shown.

But when I try the npm run dev command, I have the following error:

[webpack-cli] Invalid configuration object. Webpack has been initialised using a configuration object that does not match the API schema.
 - configuration.module.rules[3].type should be one of these:
   "javascript/auto" | "javascript/dynamic" | "javascript/esm" | "json" | "webassembly/experimental"
   -> Module type to use for the module
 - configuration.output has an unknown property 'assetModuleFilename'. These properties are valid:
   object { auxiliaryComment?, chunkCallbackName?, chunkFilename?, chunkLoadTimeout?, crossOriginLoading?, devtoolFallbackModuleFilenameTemplate?, devtoolLineToLine?, devtoolModuleFilenameTemplate?, devtoolNamespace?, filename?, futureEmitAssets?, globalObject?, hashDigest?, hashDigestLength?, hashFunction?, hashSalt?, hotUpdateChunkFilename?, hotUpdateFunction?, hotUpdateMainFilename?, jsonpFunction?, jsonpScriptType?, library?, libraryExport?, libraryTarget?, path?, pathinfo?, publicPath?, sourceMapFilename?, sourcePrefix?, strictModuleExceptionHandling?, umdNamedDefine?, webassemblyModuleFilename? }
   -> Options affecting the output of the compilation. `output` options tell webpack how to write the compiled files to disk.

I tried modifying my webpack.config.js leaving only the bare minimum to see if it came from that. But the problem persists so I don't understand where it came from

Can you share your webpack.config.js ? Otherwise, there is nothing we can do to reproduce that.

Yes, this is my webpack.config.js :

if (!Encore.isRuntimeEnvironmentConfigured()) {
    Encore.configureRuntimeEnvironment(process.env.NODE_ENV || 'dev');
}

Encore

    .setOutputPath('public/build/')

That's it I just solved the problem, I don't really know by what miracle.

In fact I created a new project, and installed the dependencies.

Then I saw in the package.json that these versions were needed:

    "devDependencies": {
        "@symfony/stimulus-bridge": "^2.0.0",
        "@symfony/ux-chartjs": "file:vendor/symfony/ux-chartjs/Resources/assets",
        "@symfony/webpack-encore": "^1.0.0",
        "core-js": "^3.0.0",
        "regenerator-runtime": "^0.13.2",
        "sass": "^1.32.6",
        "sass-loader": "^10.1.1",
        "stimulus": "^2.0.0",
        "webpack-notifier": "^1.6.0"
    },

There are some that did not match my own project's package.json :

"devDependencies": {
        "@symfony/stimulus-bridge": "^2.0.0",
        "@symfony/ux-chartjs": "file:vendor/symfony/ux-chartjs/Resources/assets",
        "@symfony/webpack-encore": "^1.0.4",
        "core-js": "^3.8.3",
        "regenerator-runtime": "^0.13.2",
        "sass-loader": "^9.0.3",
        "stimulus": "^2.0.0",
        "webpack-notifier": "^1.13.0"
    },

So I just replaced the devDependencies with those from the new project.

Then I ran npm install then npm update, and everything works!

But was the problem really there?

Apart from sass-loader both devDependencies should've matched the same versions when doing a fresh install or a npm update.

My guess is that when you updated @symfony/webpack-encore npm didn't update webpack (that comes with it) for some reason.

bastien70 commented Feb 4, 2021

On the other hand, thing to note, when I run npm install --force, I had this warning:

It happened on the new project that I had just created.

And I got the same error on my own project when I finally ran "npm update"
Should we care?

Hmm, I wonder if the fact that friendly-errors-webpack-plugin still (incorrectly) has its peer dependency as Webpack v4, but Encore has it at v5, that when you execute Encore (which executes Webpack), it can't figure out which one to use. That must be something specific to how npm works. I think we need to remove friendly-errors-plugin anyways - probably we will just commit it into our project - nobody on that project is even responding to my volunteer to help the repo - geowarin/friendly-errors-webpack-plugin#46 (comment)

Until now, I thought that (apart from a warning), that this was harmless, but it seems that it's not!

I don't think that's the case, peer dependencies are not installed unless you add them yourself. I checked the content of the package.json given above and we were the only lib with webpack as a dependency.

Hmm, so maybe what we're seeing in the screenshot above is just npm's version of yarn's "missing peer dependency" warning.

@bastien70 is your project working now (other than this warning)?

Yes everything seems to be working for the moment.

I always have the warning mentioned above, every npm update, that's all.

However, it has happened to me, rarely, for no reason, that the 'npm run dev' gave me an error (I didn't think of raising it, sorry), and that I had to run npm install --force before you can successfully compile the assets again. If I face this problem again, I can share it with you. But for the moment everything seems stable.

On the other hand, a remark. The way we have to manage the copies of images have changed?

In the old days I would require the image in my js file and compiling it the image was automatically placed in public/build/images, but I noticed recently that by doing this now the manifest .json was referencing this image in another way.

For example, if in our app.js file we import a user.jpg image and compile it all, we will have the image that will be available in:

/public/build/images/user [hash] .jpg, but in the manifest.json it will call it this way: build/app.jpg.

While proceeding from webpack with :

     .copyFiles({
         from: './assets/app/images',
         to: 'images/[path][name].[hash:8].[ext]',
         pattern: /\.(png|jpg|jpeg)$/
     })

The manifest.json will correctly reference the image to build/images/user.jpg.

In the past I hadn't noticed this change because my images were cached. It's since the webpack update that I noticed that if I wanted to keep a consistent path if I called my images from Twig, I had to copy the images from webpack. Is this a recent change? Am I totally missing the point?

On the other hand, a remark. The way we have to manage the copies of images have changed?

Yes, images are run through the new "asset modules" system - https://webpack.js.org/guides/asset-modules/ - but copyFiles() does not do that. The path change sounds like something that wasn't intended.

@bastien70 could you try my fork on #921 (instructions included there) to see if it fixes your manifest.json file?

Hey @weaverryan ! I have tried this. Are you asking me to run the two commands described on my project to check my problem above? If so, then here are the results of this test:

I first tested on a very recent project. I updated the dependencies first before placing your orders. Everything went well. However, at the time of run npm run dev, I got this error (the same as for the original subject, but on another project where webpack had successfully installed yet):

image

So I created a brand new project to test. Everything went well.

When running npm run dev, here are the results against the manifest.json:

It's much better ! I had put an image in /assets/images/myImage.jpg and I require it in my app.js.

After compilation, here is what the manifest.json gives:

{
  "build/app.css": "/build/app.css",
  "build/app.js": "/build/app.js",
  "build/runtime.js": "/build/runtime.js",
  "build/vendors-node_modules_symfony_stimulus-bridge_dist_index_js-node_modules_core-js_modules_es_ob-28f194.js": "/build/vendors-node_modules_symfony_stimulus-bridge_dist_index_js-node_modules_core-js_modules_es_ob-28f194.js",
  "build/assets/images/myImage.jpg": "/build/images/myImage.a375e619.jpg"

Fixing manifest paths (by temporarily embedding webpack-manifest-plugin fix)

This temporarily embeds shellscape/webpack-manifest-plugin#249, which fixes #907 and also a comment on #914 (comment)

To test this:

```
$ yarn remove @symfony/webpack-encore
$ yarn add git://github.com/weaverryan/webpack-encore.git#try-manifest-fix
```

Please let me know if this does or doesn't fix your `manifest.json` file. I'm also interested in hearing from Windows users, as the fix requires some "path" manipulation.

Hey @bastien70!

Please try version 1.0.6 and let me know if you have any more issues.

Btw, the first error above - about "Invalid configuration object" - is your project, once again (somehow) reverting back to Webpack 4 :/. Fun(ish) fact, in fixing this manifest.json issue, I was delayed a few days with a Windows+npm bug where it would not resolve some dependencies correctly. Your probably not hitting the same thing, but it's interesting that npm isn't behaving correctly for you also.

Cheers!

Two different versions of webpack are listed. npm couldn't resolve the conflict and used both (?). To resolve the conflict, use this list and uninstall all of the packages that depend on webpack. From above, for me, these included @symfony/webpack-encore@1.6.1; dotenv-flow-webpack@1.1.0; sass-loader@10.2.0; and workbox-webpack-plugin@6.3.0. For you, it will be different, but probably the encore will have the most dependencies. Whatever you do, MAKE SURE YOU KEEP A LIST OF THESE PACKAGES!!!

After doing this, make sure you no longer have webpack installed anywhere by running the npm list webpack again.

Then install webpack with npm install webpack. This should give you the latest version. Check it npm list webpack.

Then reinstall all the packages you removed. All of the packages accepted the latest version of webpack except one: dotenv-flow-webpack@1.1.0. For that I ran npm install dotenv-flow-webpack --force. This gave me errors, but it still installed and everything still worked fine. Instead of using force, you might be able to find an alternative package that allows webpack version 5+.

Again, those errors came from forcing dotenv-flow-webpack to use version 5 of webpack. However, it still worked fine (so far...).

UPDATE: In my case, a version of webpack is built in with @symfony/webpack-encore. If you install webpack separately it will conflict with the version that is installed with @symfony/webpack-encore. In this case, simply install @symfony/webpack-encore FIRST before installing all the other packages that require webpack. When you do this, npm will use @symfony/webpack-encore's version of webpack for the other packages. AGAIN, use the force command as indicated above for any packages that may require an older version of webpack. It might work. If it doesn't, then try to find a substitute that will work with the later version of webpack.

Here is how I fixed the problem.

Run npm list webpack. I got something like this:

This solved my problem:
npm add webpack@4

Sorry to say, but IMHO this isn't solved yet.

lib/config-generator.js line 252 defines the property "assetModuleFilename" which is stated as "invalid config object".

I having this issue, I am doing a course on developing creative website from scratch without using any frameworks and following the instructors code but he is using webpack: 4.*.* and I am on webpack: 5.75.* which is the latest stable version.

Can someone please help tell what's wrong with my webpack.config file?

error
