Build Status Webpack Plugin

Set the logLevel property to 'silent' for the dev server/middleware to suppress the ugly default output.

Do the same for the hot middleware if you're using one.

Import the build-status-webpack-plugin package in your webpack config and add the imported class as a plugin:

1const BuildStatusPlugin = require('build-status-webpack-plugin')
2
3
4module.exports = {
5  plugins: [ new BuildStatusPlugin() ],
6  devServer: {
7    logLevel: 'silent',
8  }
9}

Next time you run webpack, the console should output the build progress in a nice, clean format instead of its regular diarrhea-of-stdouting.

You're welcome :---)
