[webpack] packages all project folder instead of the .webpack folder

I can’t get electron-forge to package a webpack build. Whatever i do the “dir” passed to electron-packager is my project folder. as seen in the cli source file i tried to do electron-forge package .webpack but still because of that line it’s always to project folder (the folder where electron is found) which is passed to electron-packager.

So my app ends up being 400Mo and can’t run because the main file is not found.

I know see in the code that it’s normal to “package” the whole project folder. With webpack it does not really make sense. Can you guide on how to make it work correctly with webpack?

Thanks

By default beta 29 brutally ignores everything other than .webpack and your package.json file. And we remove the dependencies and devDependencies object from your package.json for extra safety

Your package will be nice and small now 👍

@MarshallOfSound To me living the scripts seems like an Intelligence property issue. It gives intel( even if not big) on how the app is built. Plus it’s no use when packaged 😉
