PHP output from Webpack

Please note this module depends on webpack 2+.

This webpack plugin will create a PHP file in your outPutPath directory with a PHP class in it having two static attributes: $jsFiles and $cssFiles. These can be accessed by your PHP application to learn about what to include when rendering the frontend of the site.

Note that the php manifest is created with (node fs)[https://nodejs.org/api/fs.html] independently of the Webpack output cycle. It will therefor be created in the same location when running a standard Webpack build or Webpack Dev Server

yarn add webpack-php-output
