Parameter "homepage" in package.json

Hi,

I miss an explanation at the documentation about the parameter “homepage” in package.json, and it is very useful for making buildings.

For instance, I had a problem because the index.html file pointed to “/static/js/…js” and that’s is correct if we release the application in the root folder, but if you have various static developments in the same machine using the same Apache Server you have a problem.

I configured package.json with:

  "homepage": "."

That made that instead of using absolute paths we use relative paths in the current folder. What I mean: “./static/js/…js”

I think that this information will be useful to other developers.

Thanks a lot for your work!!!

Hello @Timer Thanks a lot for your this ‘relative path’ contribution. I have a problem with my specific use case.

To generalize my question, I have set up the environment using express-generator and I created CRA inside public folder, named as ‘client’ just in case if you could see the entire source, it is HERE

I would desperately want to use client side routing (react-router v4) and hopefully also Redux in the future… Could you please take a look when you get a chance please?

Very much appreciated,

[Timer]

Hi there! react-scripts v0.9.0 was just released which adds support for building for relative paths. You may read how to do so here.

Please test it and don’t hesitate to reach out if this doesn’t solve your specific use case!
