Issue: alias and config externals

[soyjavi]

issue

Please try to answer the following questions:

• What version of Neutrino are you using? 4.9.0
• Are you trying to use any presets? If so, which ones, and what versions? @neutrinojs/react-components
• Are you using the Yarn client or the npm client? What version? yarn 1.22.4
• What version of Node.js are you using? v14.4.0
• What operating system are you using? mac os
• What did you do? i create an alias @aurora pointing to a node module
• What did you expect to happen? I expect this alias dont be part of the final build
• What actually happened, contrary to your expectations? Even if i set up the externals the final build gets all the code from the node module

neutrino.config.resolve.alias.set('@aurora', path.resolve(__dirname, './node_modules/@lookiero/aurora/web'))

then i setup the external

neutrino.config.when(process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production', (config) => {
  config.externals([
    '@aurora',
  ]);
});

You probably mean Neutrino 9.4.0 and not 4.9.0

Neutrino just outputs a Webpack config. You can console.log(module.exports) in webpack.config.js to check if it matches your expectations. If it does then it is an issue in the configuration logic, not the Neutrino.

Printing the object directly works for some parts of it, but others will be a bit quirky. For the most accurate (and annotated) output, I'd use: https://neutrinojs.org/usage/#inspecting-the-generated-webpack-config

@edmorley It works. But I had problems with visualizing configs in my project caused by extremely huge ESLint config that is a part of Webpack loader. So I decided to go with default console behavior - only several levels nested objects are shown
