versioning doesn't work when called inside of an if(production) conditionnal

Using ^7.0

This works

mix.combine([
  'resources/assets/landing/css/devices/style.css',
  'resources/assets/landing/css/animate.css',
], 'public/dist/app.css').version();

mix.combine([
  'resources/assets/landing/js/main.js',
  'resources/assets/landing/vendor/push-menu/js/jasny-bootstrap.min.js',
], 'public/dist/app.js').version();

if (mix.inProduction) {
  mix.minify();
}

This doesn’t work

mix.combine([
  'resources/assets/landing/css/devices/style.css',
  'resources/assets/landing/css/animate.css',
], 'public/dist/app.css');

mix.combine([
  'resources/assets/landing/js/main.js',
  'resources/assets/landing/vendor/push-menu/js/jasny-bootstrap.min.js',
], 'public/dist/app.js');

if (mix.inProduction) {
  mix.minify();
  mix.version();
}

This last one never applies the versioning. I would like to only apply minification and versioning when I run npm run production, not when I run npm run dev

How can I achieve this?

In the first case, it does versioning whether I run dev or production

The mix used in webpack.mix.js is not an instance of Mix but a entry to specify webpack config. You should use

if (mix.config.inProduction) {
    mix.minify();
    mix.version();
}

Using the latest version 1.7.2, I believe this has changed again. I had to use the following to apply versioning to production.

if (mix.config.production) {
  mix.version();
}
