webpack-auto-inject-version

library1.2.2jsnpmunverified

Webpack plugin that automatically injects version from package.json into bundle files as a comment block, replaces custom tags (e.g., [AIV]{version}[/AIV]) in HTML/CSS/JS, and optionally auto-increments the package version via webpack env flags (--env.major, --env.minor, --env.patch). Current stable version 1.2.2. Simple configuration with sensible defaults, all features enabled out of the box. Supports customization of comment format, date format, and tag regex. Limited maintenance; no major updates since 2019.

Debug

Known issues

gotchaAutoIncreaseVersion in watch mode will increment version on every rebuild if runInWatchMode is true (default false).

fix

Set runInWatchMode to false (default) to avoid unintended version bumps during development.

affects: >=0.0.0

deprecatedPackage has not been updated since 2019; may not work with latest webpack 5+ without adjustments.

fix

Consider migrating to alternative plugins like 'webpack-version-plugin' or use webpack.DefinePlugin with process.env.npm_package_version.

affects: >=1.2.2

gotchaPACKAGE_JSON_INDENT default is 2, but example shows 4; mismatched indent may cause version file reformatting.

fix

Set PACKAGE_JSON_INDENT to match your package.json indent (usually 2) to avoid unwanted changes.

affects: >=0.0.0
