Troubleshooting

Webpack is difficult to configure simply because it is so powerful. If you face a problem it is important to raise it in the right place.

Possibly whatever problem you are facing is not an issue with this loader, so please work this list before raising an issue.

Working with a framework

1. Check to see if that framework is still using an older version with the rework engine. This will not support modern CSS and is the source of most problems. Usually there is an existing issue raised in that framework and there may be workarounds there.
2. Hack the framework code in your node_modules to diagose the root cause.

Creating your own webpack config

1. Do the checklist at the top of the page - do you need to use this loader?
2. Read and understand the detail on how the loader works.
3. Check the known-issues below.
4. Use the debug option to see where the loader is looking for your assets.
5. Temporarily remove this loader and use non-relative asset paths to check if the problem is something else.
6. Check stack overflow for an answer.
7. Review previous issues that may be similar.
8. Try to recreate the problem with a minimum breaking example project.

I'm happy this loader helps so many people. Open-source is provided as-is and I'm currently not dogfooding this loader in my own work, so please try not project your frustrations. There are some really great people who follow this project who can help.

Known issues

Support for image-set()

Right now this loader only rewrites url() statements.

If you need other statements processed, such as image-set(), then please upvote issue #119.

Absolute URIs

By "absolute URIs" we more correctly mean assets with root-relative URLs or absolute file paths. These paths are not processed unless a root is specified.

However any paths that are processed will have windows back-slash converted to posix forward-slash. This can be useful since some webpack loaders can choke on windows paths. By using root: '' then resolve-url-loader effectively does nothing to absolute paths except change the windows backslash.

💡 Protip In windows if your downstream loaders are choking on windows paths using root: '' can help.

Also it be useful to process absolute URIs if you have a custom join function and want to process all the paths. Although this is perhaps better done with some separate postcss plugin.

Windows line breaks

Normal windows linebreaks are CRLF. But sometimes libsass will output single CR characters.

This problem is specific to multiline declarations. Refer to the libsass bug #2693.

If you have any such multiline declarations preceding url() statements it will fail your build.

Libsass doesn't consider these orphan CR to be newlines but postcss engine does. The result being an offset in source-map line-numbers which crashes resolve-url-loader.

Module build failed: Error: resolve-url-loader: error processing CSS
  source-map information is not available at url() declaration

Some users find the node-sass linefeed option solves the problem.

Solutions

• Try the node-sass linefeed option by way of sass-loader.

Work arounds

• Enable removeCR option here (enabled by default on Window OS).
• Remove linebreaks in declarations in your .scss sources.

Diagnosis

1. Run a stand-alone sass build npx node-sass index.scss output.css.
2. Use a hex editor to check line endings Format-Hex output.css.
3. Expect 0DOA (or desired) line endings. Single 0D confirms this problem.
