Webpack with bower support

Would I like to load preferably the node packages, and only if not exist, loads the bower package.

I would just use the node package only as recommended in Webpack site, but I need to load a library that is just in bower, https://github.com/Stamplay/stamplay-js-sdk and https://github.com/Stamplay/angular-stamplay

Try with bower-webpack-plugin

I installed https://github.com/lpiepiora/bower-webpack-plugin

But when I run webpack-dev-server -d --watch the error is displayed in chrome console:

Uncaught TypeError: angular.module is not a function(anonymous function) @ app.js:8__webpack_require__ @ bootstrap 6cecf8d96fb5a1205f10:19(anonymous function) @ bootstrap 6cecf8d96fb5a1205f10:39__webpack_require__ @ bootstrap 6cecf8d96fb5a1205f10:19(anonymous function) @ bootstrap 6cecf8d96fb5a1205f10:39(anonymous function) @ bootstrap 6cecf8d96fb5a1205f10:39
angular.js:68Uncaught Error: [$injector:modulerr] Failed to instantiate module app due to:
Error: [$injector:nomod] Module 'app' is not available! You either misspelled the module name or forgot to load it. If registering a module ensure that you specify the dependencies as the second argument.

Try with ResolverPlugin (see Webpack docs)

In webpack.config i add..

plugins: [
     ...
    , new webpack.ProvidePlugin({
        Q: 'q',
        store: 'store.js',
        Stamplay: 'stamplay-js-sdk'
    })
    , new webpack.ResolverPlugin(
        [
            new webpack.ResolverPlugin.DirectoryDescriptionFilePlugin("bower.json", ["main"])
        ], ["normal", "loader"]
    )

],
....
resolve: {
    root: [
        path.join(__dirname, 'node_modules'),
        path.join(__dirname, 'bower_components')
    ],

But, like mention here the Stamplay object is not correct!

Trying with CDN and angular-webpack-plugin

First add script tag into index.html ..

Second, add externals in webpack.config ..

externals: {
    stamplay: 'Stamplay'
},

And finally .. new AngularPlugin into plugins on webpack.config

This way, worsks but I cant use angular-stamplay, when I try, a error in module stamplay apper. :(

See branch with this change here

The full project is here: https://github.com/Ridermansb/webpackBowerStarter

Ok, tried your project from git https://github.com/Ridermansb/webpackBowerStarter

And as mentioned at https://github.com/lpiepiora/bower-webpack-plugin/issues/20 I too had that Cannot resolve module 'stamplay-js-sdk' issue , then in webpackBowerStarter directory I did bower install stamplay-js-sdk then sudo npm run build and voila! It was done.

On npm run start which is same as webpack-dev-server -d --watch I get http://localhost:8080/webpack-dev-server/ like
