Can I version specific file in Laravel mix?

Yes -

mix.version(['path/to/files.js']);

Hi, Jeffery,

When I run mix.version(['path/to/thefiles.js']), it always return

no such file or directory, open 'path/to/thefiles.js'

It seems Mix always delete the original file before it actually run version() on it. Please help. Thanks.

Hi there,

same for me, especially the combination of extract() and version() does not work.

mix
  .js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
    .extract([
      'vue', 'axios', 'lodash'
    ]);

if (mix.config.inProduction) {
  mix.version(['public/js/manifest.js', 'public/js/app.js']);
}

I wanted to extract the vendors and then version just my app.js... but as mentioned above, the unversioned vendor.js will be deleted while npm run production.

What do I miss? Thanks in advance for any hint :)

Also interested in defining specific files for versioning @JeffreyWay :)

I always feel guilty when stumbling over my own questions. YES, there is no vendor.js anymore after mix.version() BUT the versioned vendor.123random.js does not change at all. Same name, same file, no cache busting - so perhaps Webpack is just too smart for me ;)

Same issue for me too when ever I pass a specific file into the version I get the errors Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open 'public/css/app.css'

This solves the problem. You have to do something like path/to/thefiles.*.js when compiling the file. https://github.com/JeffreyWay/laravel-mix/issues/472
