stylelint-webpack-plugin
This version of stylelint-webpack-plugin only works with webpack 5. For the webpack 4, see the 2.x branch.
This plugin uses stylelint
that helps you avoid errors and enforce conventions in your styles.
Getting Started
To begin, you'll need to install stylelint-webpack-plugin
:
npm install stylelint-webpack-plugin --save-dev
or
yarn add -D stylelint-webpack-plugin
or
pnpm add -D stylelint-webpack-plugin
Note:
You also need to install
stylelint >= 13
from npm, if you haven't already:
npm install stylelint --save-dev
or
yarn add -D stylelint
or
pnpm add -D stylelint
Note:
If you are using Stylelint 13 rather than 14+, you might also need to install
@types/stylelint
as a dev dependency if getting stylelint related type errors.
Then add the plugin to your webpack config. For example:
const StylelintPlugin = require('stylelint-webpack-plugin');
module.exports = {
// ...
plugins: [new StylelintPlugin(options)],
// ...
};
Options
See stylelint's options for the complete list of options available. These options are passed through to the stylelint
directly.

- Type:
type cache = boolean;
- Default:
true
The cache is enabled by default to decrease execution time.
cacheLocation
- Type:
type cacheLocation = string;

node_modules/.cache/stylelint-webpack-plugin/.stylelintcache
Specify the path to the cache location. Can be a file or a directory.
configFile
- Type:
type context = string;
- Default:
undefined

files
- Type:
type files = string | Array<string>;

. Directories are traversed recursively looking for files matching options.extensions
. File and glob patterns ignore options.extensions
.
fix
- Type:
type fix = boolean;
- Default:
false
If true
, stylelint
will fix as many errors as possible. The fixes are made to the actual source files. All unfixed errors will be reported. See Autofixing errors docs.

type formatter = string | (
results: Array<import('stylelint').LintResult>
) => string

instance that will be used for linting.
threads
- Type:
type threads = boolean | number;

Errors and Warning
By default the plugin will auto adjust error reporting depending on stylelint errors/warnings counts.
You can still force this behavior by using emitError
or emitWarning
options:
emitError
- Type:
type emitError = boolean;
- Default:
true
The errors found will always be emitted, to disable set to false
.
emitWarning
- Type:
type emitWarning = boolean;
- Default:
true
The warnings found will always be emitted, to disable set to false
.
failOnError
- Type:
type failOnError = boolean;
- Default:
true
Will cause the module build to fail if there are any errors, to disable set to false
.
failOnWarning
- Type:
type failOnWarning = boolean;
- Default:
false
Will cause the module build to fail if there are any warnings, if set to true
.
quiet
- Type:
type quiet = boolean;
- Default:
false
Will process and report errors only and ignore warnings, if set to true
.
outputReport
- Type:
type outputReport =
| boolean
| {
filePath?: string | undefined;
formatter?:
| (
| string
| ((results: Array<import('stylelint').LintResult>) => string)
)
| undefined;
};
- Default:
false
Write the output of the errors to a file, for example a json
file for use for reporting.
The filePath
is relative to the webpack config: output.path
.
You can pass in a different formatter for the output file, if none is passed in the default/configured formatter will be used.
{
filePath: 'path/to/file';
formatter: 'json';
}
