Stimulus Webpack Helpers

Using Stimulus Webpack Helpers

Call webpack's require.context helper with the path to the folder containing your Stimulus controllers. Then, pass the resulting context to the Application#load method using the definitionsFromContext helper:

1// src/application.js
2import { Application } from "@hotwired/stimulus"
3import { definitionsFromContext } from "@hotwired/stimulus-webpack-helpers"
4
5const application = Application.start()
6const context = require.context("./controllers", true, /\.js$/)
7application.load(definitionsFromContext(context))
8window.Stimulus = application
