noop-webpack-plugin

library1.0.1jsnpmunverified

A tiny Webpack plugin that performs no operation, intended as a conditional placeholder when a noop is needed in the plugins array. Version 1.0.1 is the latest and only release. The package is stable but trivial – it creates a no-op plugin that does nothing. It has zero dependencies and is often used to replace a real plugin in development mode. Alternatives include using null or process.env checks directly, but this plugin provides a simple interface.

Verified usage

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

default

✓ const noop = require('noop-webpack-plugin');

✗ import noop from 'noop-webpack-plugin';

Package uses CommonJS only; no ESM exports. Use require() in Node.js.

noop

✓ const noop = require('noop-webpack-plugin');

✗ const { noop } = require('noop-webpack-plugin');

The module exports a function directly, not an object. Default import is required.

noop()

✓ plugins: [ isProd ? new UglifyJsPlugin() : noop() ]

✗ plugins: [ noop ]

noop must be called (returns a plugin instance) rather than passed as a class.

Conditionally use UglifyJsPlugin in production or noop in development.

const webpack = require('webpack'); const noop = require('noop-webpack-plugin'); const isProd = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production'; module.exports = { entry: './src/index.js', output: { path: './dist', filename: 'bundle.js' }, plugins: [ isProd ? new webpack.optimize.UglifyJsPlugin() : noop() ] };

Debug

Known issues

gotchanoop() must be called to get a plugin instance; passing the function directly will cause Webpack to fail.

fix

Use noop() instead of noop in the plugins array.

affects: >=1.0.0

deprecatedThe package is trivial and may not be actively maintained; prefer inline conditionals or use a package-specific noop like webpack's built-in noop?

fix

Consider using `plugins: [ isProd && new UglifyJsPlugin() ].filter(Boolean)` instead.

affects: >=1.0.0

gotchaThe package has no TypeScript typings, causing type errors in TypeScript projects.

fix

Create a declaration file: declare module 'noop-webpack-plugin' { const fn: () => any; export default fn; }

affects: >=1.0.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

TypeError: noop is not a constructor

Using `new noop()` instead of calling `noop()`.

fix

Use `noop()` instead of `new noop()`.

Cannot find module 'noop-webpack-plugin'

Package not installed or missing from node_modules.

fix

Run `npm install noop-webpack-plugin --save-dev`.

Invalid configuration object. Webpack has been initialised using a configuration object that does not match the API schema. - configuration.plugins[0] should be a Webpack plugin instance.

Passing the noop function (not called) into plugins array.

fix

Change `plugins: [noop]` to `plugins: [noop()]`.
