node.js

安装 node.js.

node.js comes with a package manager called npm.

webpack

webpack can be installed through npm:

$ npm install webpack -g

webpack is now installed globally and the webpack command is available.

在项目中使用webpack

It's the best to have webpack also as dependency in your project. Through this you can choose a local webpack version and will not be forced to use the single global one.

Add a package.json configuration file for npm with:

$ npm init

The answers to the questions are not so important if you don't want to publish your project to npm.

Install and add webpack to the package.json with:

$ npm install webpack --save-dev

Versions

There are two versions of webpack available. The stable one and a beta version. The beta version is marked with a -beta in the version string. The beta version may contain fragile changes or experimental features and is less tested. See [[changelog]] for differences. For serious stuff you should use the stable version:

$ npm install webpack@1.2.x --save-dev

Dev Tools

If you want to use dev tools you should install it:

$ npm install webpack-dev-server --save-dev
