记一次webpack2升级为webpack4的爬坑之路

        webpack4官方发布以来，很多博主都已经上手开撸了，但是大体都是对着API新配置一份，我今天尝试了一下将我们公司的webpack2项目迁移到webpack4，下面是记录的几个坑。

一、环境准备

    1、node 6.10+

    2、下载webpack4  

 npm install webpack@4 -D

二、根据控制台错误一个一个的修改

问题1、

WebpackOptionsValidationError: Invalid configuration object. Webpack has been initialised using a configuration object that does not match the API schema.
 - configuration.module has an unknown property 'loaders'. These properties are valid:

解决1：将webpack.conf.js中的 loaders 改成 rules 。（ps有多少改多少！）

问题2、TypeError: compilation.mainTemplate.applyPluginsWaterfall is not a function

解决2：网上有很多说是下载 webpack-contrib/html-webpack-plugin 这个官方临时插件解决，但是当我去下的时候发现已经下不了了，很遗憾！

过去的解决办法npm install webpack-contrib/html-webpack-plugin -D

不过现在有了正式版

现在的解决办法npm install html-webpack-plugin@3.2.0 -D

问题3、Cannot read property 'babel' of undefined

解决3：

npm install babel-loader@7 -D

问题4、Cannot read property 'vue' of undefined 

解决4：

npm install vue-loader@14 -D

问题5、Module build failed (from ./node_modules/css-loader/index.js)

解决5：style-loader和css-loader书写位置不能错，并跟新url-loader@1+file-loader@1

{test: /\.css$/, use: ['style-loader','css-loader']},

npm install url-loader@1 -D

npm install file-loader@1 -D

这5个问题弄完之后，项目就可以成功跑起来了，然后需要什么配置再自己看文档添加即可，最后附上我的package.json供大家参考
