Cannot read property 'plugin' of null about install-webpack-plugin HOT 18 CLOSED

well until they push a release. this works for me =>

npm install webpack-contrib/npm-install-webpack-plugin --save-dev

from install-webpack-plugin.

@insin is there any idea about next release resolving this issue?

from install-webpack-plugin.

I've published npm-install-webpack2-plugin to npm in the meantime (which is built from b21bd32) as I need a non-scoped (don't ask) Webpack 2 compatible version.

These are the draft release notes I had ready for the next release:

• Added a quiet option - enabling it will silence npm install output.
• Check if modules are resolvable from the current working directory instead of checking dependencies and devDependencies in package.json .
  • package.json is now optional - the plugin will no longer create it if it doesn't exist.
  • If package.json exists, the plugin will --save newly-installed dependencies to it as usual.
• Allow Webpack to attempt to resolve loaders first, as module.resolveLoaders configuration may enable resolving of loaders which aren't resolvable from the current working directory.
• Added support for Babel presets specified as a [preset, options] array.
• Added compatibility for Webpack 2 creating resolvers later in the process.

@IZHQT if you look at the fix that @insin mentioned you'll see that he updated webpack to v2.2.0 in it. @insin any idea when the next release will be cut? thanks!

I have the same problem

from install-webpack-plugin.

@david-whitlark : Thanks for your solution.
It works for me on ubuntu but I am wondring how did you figured out this solution ?

from install-webpack-plugin.

@eblonvia I realized that the fix had been committed to the repo, but had not been pushed to npm, so by telling npm to install directly from the repo instead of npm allowed me to use the updated code

from install-webpack-plugin.

Staled and fixed in master
