Generic patch plugin

This plugin allows you to overwrite modules and assets from a source folder with files from a patch folder in a generic way.

Usage

To install it as a dependency in your project run:
npm install --save-dev webpack-generic-patch-plugin

Add the webpack-generic-patch-plugin to the list of plugins in your webpack config.

Note: The order in which the plugins are listed does matter. If you run into issues, try to change their order.

``js
// webpack.config.js
const path = require('path');

// Modules inside the patchPath will be
// preferred over modules from the sourcePath
// with the same relative path.
const sourcePath = path.resolve(__dirname, 'source');
const patchPath = path.resolve(__dirname, 'patch');

const GenericPatchPlugin = require('webpack-generic-patch-plugin');

module.exports = {
mode: 'development',
entry: path.resolve(__dirname, 'source/index.js'),
output: {
path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
filename: '[name].js'
},
plugins: [new GenericPatchPlugin(sourcePath, patchPath)]
};
``
