Hello. I am using webpack-dev-server on port 9000 and rails server on port 3000 However for some strange reason rails generates paths like http://localhost:3000/packs/landing-95e755f46be9e49e5bfc.js but should http://localhost:9000/packs/landing-95e755f46be9e49e5bfc.js

I am porting my application from webpack and done step by step instructions however this port mismatch makes me crazy. Could you please point me in the right direction ?

Helpers provided by minipack construct paths based on the base url served by Rails. So the behavior you reported is as expected.

To integrate Rails with webpack dev server, there is a way to use Rack::Proxy, then proxies requests for assets from your rails app to a backend webpack dev server e.g. https://gist.github.com/nikushi/4447f11f12b24db50b42608feeb848e2.

Let me close the issue because it is an expected behavior. Yet, we can still continue communication on the issue.

Thank you very much. I still have some issues, but packs are served correctly now.

Good to hear that. You can share your remaining issues. I may help you.
