HMR triggers full page reload since version 2.30.1 with webpack 3.x

[hendrikeng]

Description

Since i upgraded html-webpack-plugin to version 2.30.1 HMR doesn't work anymore.
It always triggers a full page reload (inject js or scss).

The same config does work with [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected]

Config

 devServer: {
    hot: true,
    inline: true,
    quiet: true,
    contentBase: path.resolve(__dirname, pkg.paths.src.templates),
  watchContentBase: true,
    watchOptions: {
      poll: false, // might be needed for homestead/vagrant setup, review
    },
}
.
.
.
 new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
      template: pkg.paths.src.ejs + pkg.vars.ejsName,
      filename: pkg.paths.src.templates + pkg.vars.templateName,
      inject: true,
      alwaysWriteToDisk: true,
    }),

Environment

[email protected]
├─┬ [email protected]
│ └── [email protected]

Well I just checked with the changelog:

v2.30.1

Revert part the performance optimization (#723) because of #753.
v2.30.0

Add manual sort
Performance improvements (#723)
v2.29.0

Add support for Webpack 3

And I can't imagine why this would change the HMR behaviour - could you try to debug your environment a little bit and give us an idea where to start?

I will setup a minimal repo for testing and post it. Thanks a lot.

@jantimon

this is the minimal repository:

https://github.com/hendrikeng/webpackHMRtest

but it seems like its webpack 3 related ..everything works fine , but as soon as i update webpack to 3.x HMR in js or scss triggers a full reload ...should i move the issue to webpack then? -> webpack/webpack#5505

thanks a lot for your help.

Yes I guess that would be the best way :)
