Getting "Uncaught TypeError: path.parse is not a function" in Webpack project

I am trying to setup a React project using Webpack. It's a simple app that loads an mdx file and parses it. When I try to run the app it returns 'Uncaught TypeError: path.parse is not a function'
I have tried importing parse from 'path' and importing parse from 'path-browserify' but it's still not working
index.js:
import React, { lazy, Component, Suspense } from "react";
import { importMDX } from "mdx.macro";
import ReactDOM from "react-dom";
// import path from "path";
// import { parse } from "path";
import path from "path-browserify";
// import { parse } from "path-browserify";
const Content = lazy(() => importMDX("./index.mdx"));
class App extends Component {
render() {
return (
<div>
<Suspense fallback={<div>Loading...</div>}>
<Content />
</Suspense>
</div>
);
}
}
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("root"));
webpack.config.js:
const HtmlWebPackPlugin = require("html-webpack-plugin");
const path = require("path");

You don't need to include extra dependency for path. path is global dependency of node js.
npm remove path or yarn remove path
and
npm remove path-browserify or yarn remove path-browserify
and clear node cache
npm clear cache
can you try this?

how to run run --history-api-fallback inside of webpack

let path = require('path')
module.exports = {
entry:path.resolve('public/src/index.js'),
output: {
path:__dirname + "/public",
filename: "bundle.js"
},
module: {
loaders: [{
exclude: /(node_modules)/,
loader:'babel-loader',
query:{
presets: ['es2015', 'react']
}
}]
},
watch:true
};
I am using reactjs router and in tutorials, they majority tell you to write
--history-api-fallback for the router to work
let path = require('path')
module.exports = {
entry:path.resolve('public/src/index.js'),
output: {
path:__dirname + "/public",
filename: "bundle.js"
},
module: {
loaders: [{
exclude: /(node_modules)/,
loader:'babel-loader',
query:{
presets: ['es2015', 'react']
}
}]
},
watch:true
};

I am new to react-router and i am trying to get the --history-api-fallback to work. Tutorials say to put it in the build of the json file, but i do not have a build script. I am thinking that maybe it should be somewhere is the webpack config file. I am not sure. My question is where can i insert --history-api-fallback so that it works.

For webpack dev sever, you just need to add webpack dev config. This is going to work in your dev environment.
devServer:
{
historyApiFallback: true
},

Hi guys I'm a pretty novice programmer, and I'm having trouble with my react components rendering. For some reason it is saying that it can't find the module. Can anyone guide me in the right direction?

You should name your files ".js", not ".jsx"
If you must use ".jsx", you need to specify the file ending when importing:
import LoginPage from './components/LoginPage.jsx'
Otherwise, Webpack assumes you've used ".js"

There is an issue with Webpack 3 and you have to add a blank space to the accepted extensions, like this.
resolve: {
extensions: [' ', '.js', '.jsx']
but also i recommend to add an alias to avoid import your components with the . (dot), and also remove the previous workaround
resolve: {
extensions: ['.js', '.jsx'],
alias: {
'Components': path.resolve(__dirname, '/components')
}
}
Now you can import your Components like this
import YourComponent from 'Components/Login'
https://github.com/webpack/webpack/issues/981
Also doble check that babel-node has some issues with ES6 module autoloading https://babeljs.io/docs/usage/cli/#babel-node

Webpack unexpected token in JS file

I'm learning react and flux, and in lesson 1 the tutorial has failed me.
This tutorial immediately breaks on 'npm start' with the following errors:
ERROR in ./src/js/main.js
Module parse failed: /Users/me/Projects/egghead-flux/src/js/main.js Unexpected token (4:16)
You may need an appropriate loader to handle this file type.
SyntaxError: Unexpected token (4:16)
at Parser.pp$4.raise (/Users/me/Projects/egghead-flux/node_modules/acorn/dist/acorn.js:2221:15)
It doesn't seem to understand ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('main')); I assume parsing the JSX <App /> part is failing.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? Removing / reinstalling node modules does nothing. Is there some setup step missing from the video?
Main.js
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import App from './components/app';
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById('main'));
App.js
import React from 'react';
export default class App extends React.Component {
render(){
return <h1>Flux</h1>
}
}
webpack.config.js
module.exports = {
entry: './src/js/main.js',
output:{
path:'./dist',
filename: 'bundle.js',
publicPath: '/'
},
devServer: {
inline: true,
contentBase: './dist'
},
module: {
loaders: [
{
test: '/\.jsx?$/',
exclude: /(node_modules|bower_components)/,
loader: 'babel',
query:{
presets: ['es2015', 'react']
}
}
]
}
}
package.json
{
"name": "egghead-flux",
"version": "1.0.0",
"description": "",
"main": "index.js",
"scripts": {
"start": "webpack-dev-server"
},
"author": "",

"dependencies": {
"flux": "^3.1.0",
"react": "^15.3.2",

"babel": "^6.5.2",

"babel-preset-react": "^6.16.0",
"webpack": "^1.13.3",
"webpack-dev-server": "^1.16.2"
}
}

Turns out:
test: '/\.jsx?$/',
should be:
test: /\.jsx?$/,
Dammit.

React Hot Loader not reflecting changes in browser

I am working on a react project. I am trying to use react hot loader in it. Everything in the project works fine but I am not able to see the changes in the browser as I make any changes in my component. I followed the official documentation for setting up hot loader. But it is not working. My content gets loaded in browser (localhost:3000) though. What should I do so that hot loader starts showing the changes. Here are my files.
App.js
import React from 'react';
import Userlist from '../containers/user-list';
import UserDetail from '../containers/user-detail';
require('../../scss/style.scss');
import getMuiTheme from 'material-ui/styles/getMuiTheme';
import MuiThemeProvider from 'material-ui/styles/MuiThemeProvider';
import RaisedButton from 'material-ui/RaisedButton';
const App = () => (
<MuiThemeProvider>
<div>
<RaisedButton label="Default" />
<h2>
Usernamess
</h2>
<Userlist/>
<hr/>
<h2>
User Detail
</h2>
<hr/>
<UserDetail/>
</div>
</MuiThemeProvider>
);
export default App;
webpack.config.js
var path = require('path');
var webpack = require('webpack');
module.exports = {
devtool: 'eval',
entry: [
'webpack-dev-server/client?http://localhost:3000',
'webpack/hot/only-dev-server',
'./dev/js/index.js'
],
module: {
loaders: [
{
test: /\.js$/,
loaders: ['react-hot', 'babel'],
include: path.join(__dirname, 'dev')
},
{
test: /\.scss/,
loader: 'style-loader!css-loader!sass-loader'
}
]
},
output: {
path: path.join(__dirname, 'dist'),
filename: 'bundle.js',
publicPath: '/static/'
},
plugins: [
new webpack.HotModuleReplacementPlugin()
]
};
package.json
{
"name": "react-redux-template",
"version": "1.0.0",

}
server.js
var webpack = require('webpack');
var WebpackDevServer = require('webpack-dev-server');
var config = require('./webpack.config');
new WebpackDevServer(webpack(config), {
publicPath: config.output.publicPath,
hot: true,
historyApiFallback: true
}).listen(3000, 'localhost', function (err, result) {
if (err) {
return console.log(err);
}
console.log('Listening at http://localhost:3000/');
});

An abstract from hot loader official thread https://github.com/gaearon/react-hot-loader/blob/master/docs/Troubleshooting.md
"The following modules couldn't be hot updated: (They would need a full reload!)
If you get this warning when editing a root component, this may be because you don't export anything from it, and call React.render from there. Put your root component in a separate file (e.g. App.jsx) and require it from index.js where you call React.render."
So I made changes in my App.js
export default class App extends Component {
render() {
return (
<MuiThemeProvider>
<div>
<RaisedButton label="Default" />
<h2>
Usernamess
</h2>
<Userlist/>
<hr/>
<h2>
User Deta
</h2>
<hr/>
<UserDetail/>
</div>
</MuiThemeProvider>
);
}
}
