Webpack and SASS hot reloading - sass

I'm making a simple html and CSS app. I need to my SASS changes to show up on the website LIVE as im developing.
And once all the SASS and development is complete I will run webpack -b and webpack should convert the SASS to CSS.
I'm sure someone has done this before. Thanks.

It looks like the problem stems from wrong output.publicPath config in webpack.config.js file. In order for live-reload to work, requests going to webpack bundles (e.g. app.css, app.js) should be handled by webpack-dev-server. For the repository you're referring to, this could be done by setting output.publicPath to "/build".
Run webpack-dev-server --inline on the command line after changing config file and then go to http://localhost:8080. Now the page should reload everytime you change and save a file.

Heroku not compiling webpack node dependences

I have a laravel app that compiles all assets in localhost, but in heroku it says app.js not found and app.css not found (It does not compile js, css and images assets in Heroku).
I have add the following line in AppService Provider
if($this->app->environment('production')) {
URL::forceScheme('https');
}
but it still does not work, and I do not understand why.
I have also add the env variable APP_FORCE_HTTPS but still does not work.
What could be the problem and how can i solve it?

vuejs and laravel-vuejs doesnt see changes in components

I am new in vuejs and I am using vuejs in laravel
this is working and showing component but after making refresh
the page what can I do to see changes with out refreshing page?
these are what I have done
in Webpack:
mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.extract(['vue'])
in my html file:
<script src="/js/manifest.js"></script>
<script src="/js/vendor.js"></script>
<script src="/js/app.js"></script>
commands:
npm run dev
npm run watch
You want to learn how to make single page application (SPA) which does not refresh the page but update the content according to the route.
https://laravel-news.com/using-vue-router-laravel
You will have to learn vue, vue-router to make SPA. when you get some experience then learn Vuex also.
I just had the same issue and struggled for a couple of days, the problem is the webpack mix configuration: this is what worked for me, but take care to remove the host in case you're not working with Laravel Homestead, if you are just leave it as it is and change the proxy value to your site local url.
mix.js('resources/js/app.js', 'public/js').sass('resources/sass/app.scss', 'public/css')
.browserSync({
host: '192.168.10.10',
proxy: 'mysite.test',
open: false,
files: [
'app/**/*.php',
'resources/views/**/*.php',
'resources/js/**/*.vue',
'packages/mixdinternet/frontend/src/**/*.php',
'public/js/**/*.js',
'public/css/**/*.css'
],
watchOptions: {
usePolling: true,
interval: 500
}
});
Note: I think it was a sort of a bug in NMP, but the first time I tested this config, it it didn't work. What I did was to remove the polling part, ran
npm watch-poll, stop the watching and then added again the polling settings and ran simply npm run watch and workied like a charm!
EDIT
Btw, there is small issue with this config, you have to save twice for the browser to see the changes
Hope It helps!
-Hugo
You just need to run command into your terminal:
npm install
npm run dev
npm run watch
and will see changes continuously :)

How to add plugin into laravel

I want to add a carousel plugin into laravel.
https://github.com/OwlCarousel2/OwlCarousel2
so I run npm install --save owl.carouse and add following code into index.blade.php
<script src="/node_modules/owl.carousel/dist/owl.carousel.js"></script>
The owl.carousel.js is inside my project, but when I run npm run watch, and look at the browser, there show an error in the console:
GET http://127.0.0.1:8000/node_modules/owl.carousel/dist/owl.carousel.js 404 (Not Found)
Why is that?
You should not import it through a script tag. Add it in your bootstrap.js file
require('owl.carousel');
require() will use the node_modules as the root dir
You can of course use require in any other .js file that you then import through a script tag.
If you are using VueJs you do at the top of the vue component
import owl from 'owl.carousel'
Your web server does not have access to node_modules directory.
You'd better use gulp to copy and bundle it to public directory.
Or else if you want, you can do it manually. Copy the script to the public directory.
I usually make asset/js directory under the public and then copy owl under it.
You will have:
<script src="/asset/js/owl.carousel/dist/owl.carousel.js"></script>
Add this line in your main .scss file:
#import '~owl.carousel/dist/assets/owl.carousel.css';
Compile the css with npm run dev
You can repeat these steps for your javascript files
Edit:
If you do not make use of Laravel mix yet, read this documentation first. https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/mix

Laravel Mix infinite loop when using npm run watch [L5.6]

Here's my webpack.mix.js file:
mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
.combine(['public/js/app.js', 'node_modules/owl.carousel/dist/owl.carousel.js'], 'public/js/app.js');
I am launching js task, then combining all js files into a single one.
When i run npm run dev everything works as expected, but if i run npm run watch and then edit a file that being required in app.js (custom.js) this way:
require('./bootstrap');
require('./custom.js');
Then save the changes, mix is compiling very long, after it finishes my changes not reflected. Am i doing something wrong there?
Loop issue was because i used the same name when combining js files - app.js.
Correct way is not using combine, i've included my owl carousel file in app.js:
require('owl.carousel');

Laravel Elixir not watching SASS import files for gulp

I have elixir set up to watch changes in .scss files, but changes in _partials.scss are not being watched.
elixir(function(mix){
mix.browserSync([
'resources/assets/bower/bootstrap-sass/assets/**/*'
], {
proxy: 'site.app',
reloadDelay: 200
});
});
When I edit the bootstrap/_variables.scss, gulp does compile those sass changes. If I exit gulp watch, and gulp watch again, then those changes appear.
So I know its compiling correctly, its just somehow not watching those partial files.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
This is already in a pull request on the repo. (https://github.com/laravel/elixir/pull/377)
Until fixed, I'm gonna apply the same fix for now as Ricardo (see https://github.com/ricardogobbosouza/elixir/commit/948abb930e0d822a6fa6a8531d52a8d51632c59b)
