Production output contains Function constructor

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug After running yarn build, the generated files still contain the Function() constructor. Upon trying to upload an extension to the Firefox store, the linter states The Function constructor is eval. in both content-script.js and background.js. I have kept the OOTB vue.config.js and babel.config.js.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Fix background.js to point to js/content-script.js
Run yarn build

Expected behavior The output files to be free of eval() and Function() to comply with Mozilla’s CSP.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

vue-web-extension version: 2.0.0
OS: Windows 10 Pro - 19042.746
Node.js version: 14.15.4

What about:

Maybe use a Webpack hook to replace || new Function('return this')() by something else while/after transpiling files… 🤷
