roadhog ia a cli tool with `server`, `build` and `test` commands. It has the same experience of create-react-app, slightly different configuration, and also **provide [JSON format configuration](https://github.com/sorrycc/roadhog#Configuration)**。
---
## Why roadhog
[create-react-app](https://github.com/facebookincubator/create-react-app) can not be configured, but we have different configuration requirements. I believe more than I will have this idea.
## Getting Started
### Installation
```bash
$ npm i roadhog -g
```
### Usage
Local development.
```bash
$ roadhog server
```
Build for production.
```bash
$ roadhog build
```
Run test. (Execute all files under `./test` by default)
```bash
$ roadhog test
```
## Configuration
Some basic concepts about configuration:
* Configuration is stored in the `.roadhogrc` file (If you don't like JSON, try to use `.roadhogrc.js`, support ES6)
* `JSON` format, comments allowed
* Default value of boolean configuration item is always `false`
* Support configure with `webpack.config.js` (support ES6), but it's not recommended, since roadhog's major or minor upgrade will cause compatibility problem. View detail on [#36](https://github.com/sorrycc/roadhog/issues/36)
Default configuration:
```json
{
"entry": "src/index.js",
"disableCSSModules": false,
"cssModulesExclude": [],
"publicPath": "/",
"outputPath": "./dist",
"extraBabelPlugins": [],
"extraPostCSSPlugins": [],
"sass": false,
"hash": false,
"autoprefixer": null,
"proxy": null,
"externals": null,
"library": null,
"libraryTarget": "var",
"multipage": false,
"define": null,
"env": null,
"theme": null,
}
```
[More issues and feature requests](https://github.com/sorrycc/roadhog/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Aconfig) about configuration.
### entry
Specify entry files for webpack, support [glob](https://github.com/isaacs/node-glob).
e.g.
```
// src/index.js only
"entry": "src/index.js"
// all files in src/pages/
"entry": "src/pages/*.js"
```
### disableCSSModules
CSS Modules is enabled by default.
### cssModulesExclude
Exclude the files that don't want to compile as css modules.
```
"cssModulesExclude": [
'./src/a.css',
'./src/b.less',
]
```
### hash
```
"hash": true
```
### publicPath
Specify [publicPath](http://webpack.github.io/docs/configuration.html#output-publicpath) for webpack.
### outputPath
Specify [output path](http://webpack.github.io/docs/configuration.html#output-path), default `./dist`。
### extraBabelPlugins
Specify extra babel plugins. Babel plugins can only be added, not allowed to overwrite and delete.
### extraPostCSSPlugins
Speficy extra postcss plugins.
Notice: Since postcss's plugin is configured as function, this config should only be used in `.roadhogrc.js`.
e.g.
```
extraPostCSSPlugins: [
pxtorem({
rootValue: 100,
propWhiteList: [],
}),
],
```
### autoprefixer
Specify autoprefixer arguments, view [autoprefixer](https://github.com/postcss/autoprefixer) and [browserslist](https://github.com/ai/browserslist#queries) for details.
e.g. If you are making mobile app:
```
"autoprefixer": {
"browsers": [
"iOS >= 8", "Android >= 4"
]
}
```
### sass
Support sass, set the options of [node-sass](https://github.com/sass/node-sass#options).
Notice: need to install node-sass and sass-loader deps in your project.
### proxy
Specify proxy for webpack-dev-server, view [webpack-dev-server#proxy](https://webpack.github.io/docs/webpack-dev-server.html#proxy) for details。
e.g.
```
"proxy": {
"/api": {
"target": "http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/",
"changeOrigin": true,
"pathRewrite": { "^/api" : "" }
}
}
```
Then, when accessing `/api/users`, you will get the content of http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users .
### externals
Specify the [externals](http://webpack.github.io/docs/configuration.html#externals) configuration of webpack.
### library
Specify the [library](http://webpack.github.io/docs/configuration.html#output-library) configuration of webpack.
### libraryTarget
Specify the [libraryTarget](http://webpack.github.io/docs/configuration.html#output-librarytarget) configuration of webpack.
### multipage
Speficy if has multi pages. If true, roadhog will extract common chunks as `common.js` and `common.css`.
### define
Specify the [DefinePlugin](http://webpack.github.io/docs/list-of-plugins.html#defineplugin) configuration of webpack. The value will be transform by `JSON.stringify` automatically.
### env
Set specific options for certain environment. `development` is for server, and `production` is for build.
e.g.
```
"extraBabelPlugins": ["transform-runtime"],
"env": {
"development": {
"extraBabelPlugins": ["dva-hmr"]
}
}
```
### theme
Configure theme. Support Object and String with filepath.
e.g.
```
"theme": {
"@primary-color": "#1DA57A"
}
```
or,
```

```

## Use `public` directory
`public` directory will to copied to output directory (`./dist` by default) when run `server` or `build` command. So we can store favicon, iconfont, html or images used in html here.
