parcel-reporter-static-files-copy
ParcelJS v2 plugin to copy static files from some directory to output dir. There is no watcher - files are copied on build finish.
Install
yarn add parcel-reporter-static-files-copy --dev
npm install -D parcel-reporter-static-files-copy
Usage
- Create
staticdirectory in your project root. - Fill it with your static files
- Add plugin to
.parcelrc:
{
"extends": ["@parcel/config-default"],
"reporters": ["...", "parcel-reporter-static-files-copy"]
}
PLEASE NOTE: "..." is not a placeholder - it is used to extend default list of
plugins (reporters in this case). Please see
Parcel's plugins documentation for more information.
- Run build - and that's all! Files from
staticdirectory will end up indist!
Customization
Beyond the default settings, you can:
- Name of the directory to be copied.
// package.json
{
...
"staticFiles": {
"staticPath": "customStatic"
}
- Specify directory to copy static files into
If files from staticPath needs to get copied into a subdirectory inside the dist dir -
staticOutPath can be used:
// package.json
{
...
"staticFiles": {
"staticOutPath": "vendor"
}
- Destination of static files
Destination of static files can be set in plugin configuration. It will override
--dist-dir parameter.
// package.json
{
...
"staticFiles": {
"distDir": "customDist"
}
Additional example
Check examples directory for additional examples.
Flaws and problems
At this moment this plugin copies all static files from some static dir to output (dist) directory. There is no watcher on static files - only trigger is finishing build (no matter if normal build or serving).
