Use webpacks resolve.modules

[felixoi]

I am having a setup where the nodejs modules are installed in a different directory. This ends up in using a relative path like

require(Path.resolve(__dirname, "target/scala-2.12/scalajs-bundler/main/node_modules/autoprefixer"))

which is totally stupid since I have to staticly bind a dynamically changing folder. The problem with this is that the postcss.config.js is sometimes called from different base directories, so __dirname changes which ends up in modules are not found. This would be fixes when using the resolve.modules property from webpack since it always has the same base. In my case it's configured like

resolve.modules: [
            Path.resolve(__dirname, 'node_modules')
]

With this I could just do require('autoprefixer') and it would automatically use the configured directory to find the node modules. Since most postcss plugins are nodejs modules it would be very helpful.

Actually works when using this config and not require:

module.exports = {
    plugins: {
        'autoprefixer': true
    }
};

@felixoi I not 100% sure I get want you are trying to achieve here and since the issue seems to be fixed when using 'plugin object notation' can this issue be closed?

Yes, sorry. Forgot this one.
