# loader-utils
## Methods
### `getOptions`
Recommended way to retrieve the options of a loader invocation:
```javascript// inside your loaderconst options = loaderUtils.getOptions(this);```
1. If `this.query` is a string: - Tries to parse the query string and returns a new object - Throws if it's not a valid query string2. If `this.query` is object-like, it just returns `this.query`3. In any other case, it just returns `null`
**Please note:** The returned `options` object is *read-only*. It may be re-used across multiple invocations.If you pass it on to another library, make sure to make a *deep copy* of it:
```javascriptconst options = Object.assign( {}, defaultOptions, loaderUtils.getOptions(this) // it is safe to pass null to Object.assign());// don't forget nested objects or arraysoptions.obj = Object.assign({}, options.obj); options.arr = options.arr.slice();someLibrary(options);```
[clone](https://www.npmjs.com/package/clone) is a good library to make a deep copy of the options.
#### Options as query strings
If the loader options have been passed as loader query string (`loader?some¶ms`), the string is parsed by using [`parseQuery`](#parsequery).
### `parseQuery`
Parses a passed string (e.g. `loaderContext.resourceQuery`) as a query string, and returns an object.
``` javascriptconst params = loaderUtils.parseQuery(this.resourceQuery); // resource: `file?param1=foo`if (params.param1 === "foo") { // do something}```
The string is parsed like this:
``` text -> Error? -> {}?flag -> { flag: true }?+flag -> { flag: true }?-flag -> { flag: false }?xyz=test -> { xyz: "test" }?xyz=1 -> { xyz: "1" } // numbers are NOT parsed?xyz[]=a -> { xyz: ["a"] }?flag1&flag2 -> { flag1: true, flag2: true }?+flag1,-flag2 -> { flag1: true, flag2: false }?xyz[]=a,xyz[]=b -> { xyz: ["a", "b"] }?a%2C%26b=c%2C%26d -> { "a,&b": "c,&d" }?{data:{a:1},isJSON5:true} -> { data: { a: 1 }, isJSON5: true }```
### `stringifyRequest`
Turns a request into a string that can be used inside `require()` or `import` while avoiding absolute paths.Use it instead of `JSON.stringify(...)` if you're generating code inside a loader.
**Why is this necessary?** Since webpack calculates the hash before module paths are translated into module ids, we must avoid absolute paths to ensureconsistent hashes across different compilations.
This function:
- resolves absolute requests into relative requests if the request and the module are on the same hard drive- replaces `\` with `/` if the request and the module are on the same hard drive- won't change the path at all if the request and the module are on different hard drives- applies `JSON.stringify` to the result
```javascriptloaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "./test.js");// "\"./test.js\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, ".\\test.js");// "\"./test.js\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "test");// "\"test\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "test/lib/index.js");// "\"test/lib/index.js\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "otherLoader?andConfig!test?someConfig");// "\"otherLoader?andConfig!test?someConfig\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, require.resolve("test"));// "\"../node_modules/some-loader/lib/test.js\""
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "C:\\module\\test.js");// "\"../../test.js\"" (on Windows, in case the module and the request are on the same drive)
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "C:\\module\\test.js");// "\"C:\\module\\test.js\"" (on Windows, in case the module and the request are on different drives)
loaderUtils.stringifyRequest(this, "\\\\network-drive\\test.js");// "\"\\\\network-drive\\\\test.js\"" (on Windows, in case the module and the request are on different drives)```
### `urlToRequest`
Converts some resource URL to a webpack module request.
> i Before call `urlToRequest` you need call `isUrlRequest` to ensure it is requestable url
```javascriptconst url = "path/to/module.js";
if (loaderUtils.isUrlRequest(url)) { // Logic for requestable url const request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url);} else { // Logic for not requestable url}```
Simple example:
```javascriptconst url = "path/to/module.js";const request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url); // "./path/to/module.js"```
#### Module URLs
Any URL containing a `~` will be interpreted as a module request. Anything after the `~` will be considered the request path.
```javascriptconst url = "~path/to/module.js";const request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url); // "path/to/module.js"```
#### Root-relative URLs
URLs that are root-relative (start with `/`) can be resolved relative to some arbitrary path by using the `root` parameter:
```javascriptconst url = "/path/to/module.js";const root = "./root";const request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url, root); // "./root/path/to/module.js"```
To convert a root-relative URL into a module URL, specify a `root` value that starts with `~`:
```javascriptconst url = "/path/to/module.js";const root = "~";const request = loaderUtils.urlToRequest(url, root); // "path/to/module.js"```
### `interpolateName`
Interpolates a filename template using multiple placeholders and/or a regular expression.The template and regular expression are set as query params called `name` and `regExp` on the current loader's context.
```javascriptconst interpolatedName = loaderUtils.interpolateName(loaderContext, name, options);```
The following tokens are replaced in the `name` parameter:
* `[ext]` the extension of the resource* `[name]` the basename of the resource* `[path]` the path of the resource relative to the `context` query parameter or option.* `[folder]` the folder the resource is in* `[query]` the queryof the resource, i.e. `?foo=bar`* `[emoji]` a random emoji representation of `options.content`* `[emoji:<length>]` same as above, but with a customizable number of emojis* `[contenthash]` the hash of `options.content` (Buffer) (by default it's the hex digest of the md5 hash)* `[<hashType>:contenthash:<digestType>:<length>]` optionally one can configure * other `hashType`s, i. e. `sha1`, `md5`, `sha256`, `sha512` * other `digestType`s, i. e. `hex`, `base26`, `base32`, `base36`, `base49`, `base52`, `base58`, `base62`, `base64` * and `length` the length in chars* `[hash]` the hash of `options.content` (Buffer) (by default it's the hex digest of the md5 hash)* `[<hashType>:hash:<digestType>:<length>]` optionally one can configure * other `hashType`s, i. e. `sha1`, `md5`, `sha256`, `sha512` * other `digestType`s, i. e. `hex`, `base26`, `base32`, `base36`, `base49`, `base52`, `base58`, `base62`, `base64` * and `length` the length in chars* `[N]` the N-th match obtained from matching the current file name against `options.regExp`
In loader context `[hash]` and `[contenthash]` are the same, but we recommend using `[contenthash]` for avoid misleading.

``` javascriptconst digestString = loaderUtils.getHashDigest(buffer, hashType, digestType, maxLength);```
* `buffer` the content that should be hashed* `hashType` one of `sha1`, `md5`, `sha256`, `sha512` or any other node.js supported hash type* `digestType` one of `hex`, `base26`, `base32`, `base36`, `base49`, `base52`, `base58`, `base62`, `base64`* `maxLength` the maximum length in chars
