HMR not Working when using Copy Plugin

See original GitHub issue

npm run hmr

mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
mix.copy('node_modules/bootstrap/fonts', 'public/fonts')

This error preventing hot reload from working:

ERROR in [copy-webpack-plugin] Using older versions of webpack-dev-server, devServer.outputPath must be defined to write to absolute paths

npm run hmr

mix.js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
//mix.copy('node_modules/bootstrap/fonts', 'public/fonts')

Works.

I tried to use the output path as an absolute path but it can’t find any js file.
