Webpack output files

I'm using webpack for development. It runs fine and I can see the output in my browser using the dev-server. However, now I'd like to take the output files and move them to a remote, except I can't find them.

The config is as follows:

entry: './index.js',
output: {
    filename: 'bundle.js',
    publicPath: 'http://localhost:8090/assets'
  },

But the assets folder isn't created as far as I can see. What is actually happening?

Solution

  • run this config with the webpack command not with the webpack-dev-server command, dev-server doesn't create this files on your harddrive, it keeps them in memory.
