library6.2.0jsnpmunverified

html-webpack-template v6.2.0 is an EJS template for html-webpack-plugin that extends the default template with built-in options for app mount points, external scripts, meta tags, Google Analytics, and more. It requires html-webpack-plugin 2.x or 3.x (peer dependency) and was last released in 2016. It is in maintenance mode as the html-webpack-plugin ecosystem has evolved. Key differentiators: no need to write a custom index.html; supports appMountId, window, devServer, and other config options directly in the plugin configuration.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

default
✓ const template = require('html-webpack-template');
✗ import template from 'html-webpack-template';
Package is CommonJS; ESM import may work in some bundlers but not guaranteed.
template string path
✓ template: 'node_modules/html-webpack-template/index.ejs'
✗ template: require.resolve('html-webpack-template')
Using require() is the documented method; string path also works but is brittle.
HtmlWebpackPlugin configuration
✓ new HtmlWebpackPlugin({ inject: false, template: require('html-webpack-template') })
✗ new HtmlWebpackPlugin({ inject: true, template: 'html-webpack-template' })
Must set inject: false because the template injects assets itself.

Shows basic usage with HtmlWebpackPlugin, required inject:false, and optional appMountId, window config, mobile meta, and lang attribute.

const HtmlWebpackPlugin = require('html-webpack-plugin'); const HtmlWebpackTemplate = require('html-webpack-template'); module.exports = { entry: './src/index.js', plugins: [ new HtmlWebpackPlugin({ inject: false, template: HtmlWebpackTemplate, appMountId: 'app', window: { processEnv: { NODE_ENV: JSON.stringify(process.env.NODE_ENV ?? 'development') } }, mobile: true, lang: 'en-US' }) ] };

Known issues
breakingPackage requires html-webpack-plugin v2.x or v3.x; does not work with v4+.
fix
Use html-webpack-plugin@3.x or migrate to a newer template like html-webpack-plugin's built-in or @dr.pogodin/react-helmet.
affects: >=6.0.0
deprecatedPackage has not been updated since 2016; no support for html-webpack-plugin v4+ features.
fix
Consider using html-webpack-plugin's default template or alternatives like html-webpack-plugin/lib/loader.js.
affects: >=6.0.0
gotchaMust set inject: false in HtmlWebpackPlugin options, otherwise assets are injected twice.
fix
Explicitly set inject: false in the constructor.
affects: >=3.0.0
gotchaOptions like appMountId, appMountIds, and window are case-sensitive; misspelling them results in silent failures.
fix
Double-check option names from documentation.
