Time to roll out our first Release Candidate 🎉🎉

Highlights

[BREAKING] Webpack 4

Haul was upgraded to the latest Webpack version. If you extended the default Haul configuration in any way, your builds may fail. That's why we mark it as a breaking change. This is also the primary reason why we entered Release Candidate phase – we don't want to break anything between our Betas (which are still running Webpack 3 and will not be actively maintained anymore – only bugfixes).

New UI 💅

To provide better developer experience, we've changed how the UI for start command looks like, to make it fabulous while remaining clean and minimalistic. For that we actually use React thanks to react-slate - the UI is a React app!

Node workers and lazy loading 🤖

To make development for both platforms more seamless, the way we build bundles have changed - now we do it in a separate process for each platform. This means that when running start command not only bundles are lazily loaded but also you can dynamically request bundle for another platform without stopping the server and starting haul with different --platform options. Which brings us to: there's no haul start --platform option anymore, just run haul start. You can still run --platform with bundle command.

New configuration style ⚙

In this version, we have introduced a new configuration style via haul.config.js file. With this approach, we hope you will find configuration (and eventual partial sharing) of Webpack config more convenient. Don't worry, you can run in legacy mode if you want and everything will work as usual. With this version of Haul, you can also run without any configuration file at all. Haul will seek for entry file (in package.json) and will try to serve your application from it.

Check the example of configuration bellow and for more complex use-cases check out or documentation.

// haul.config.js
import { createWebpackConfig } from 'haul';

export default {
  webpack: createWebpackConfig({
    entry: `./index.js`,
  }),
};
