[Question] How to extend Laravel Mix API?

See original GitHub issue

I know that Mix doesn’t have any plugin ecosystem #183 , but how could I extend it to support mix.custom? The following code works if added into the index.js file, but couldn’t figure out how to make it work through webpack.config.js, any ideas?

module.exports.custom = (src, output) => {
    // Custom logic
};

@JeffreyWay While I understand your concern, IMHO it’s still better to support some sort of hooks or plugin system, otherwise you left developers no options other than forking the core Mix project for their customizations, which is fine, but still allowing them upload laravel-mix-* is still more appropriate on the ecosystem level. You don’t have to support edge cases, yes. But at least leave a room for developers to implement the rest 20% 😉 what do you think?

There are no extension points at the moment. I sort of wanted to avoid the scenario where people start uploading a bunch of laravel-mix-* packages.

I’d rather folks just hook into mix.webpackConfig() to add additional functionality.
