[Feature]: Module.addBlock API #7174

Open jacob-ebey opened 1 month ago

jacob-ebey commented 1 month ago

What problem does this feature solve?

I'd like to add an async dependency to a module to enable async loading of known federated containers from a module that doesn't directly import them.

mod.addBlock(new AsyncDependenciesBlock(...));

What does the proposed API of configuration look like?

The existing Webpack Module.addBlock(...) API and Webpack new AsyncDependenciesBlock() behavior.

Aliasing the container chunk and module of the federation plugin's "remote container" under the global name of the container would also suffice for my use-case and is ultimately what I'm after.

__webpack_require__.e("container_global_name")

along with:

__webpack_require__("container_global_name")

If __webpack_require__("container_global_name") returned the { get, init } interface for the container I could move on with my life and never have a "federated" issue again. Make that go through the v1.5 plugin interface and architectures get very fun.
