A Webpack plugin that extracts Module Federation stats into a JSON file. It maps each exposed module to its required chunks, making it useful for tools like loadable-components that need to know which chunks to load for a given federated module.

npm install --save-dev webpack-federation-stats-plugin

or

yarn add --dev webpack-federation-stats-plugin

const FederationStatsPlugin = require("webpack-federation-stats-plugin")

module.exports = {
  plugins: [new FederationStatsPlugin()],
}

Note: The plugin requires ModuleFederationPlugin to be configured in the same Webpack config. It will throw an error if it is not found.

const FederationStatsPlugin = require("webpack-federation-stats-plugin")

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    new FederationStatsPlugin({
      fileName: "federation-stats.json",
      publicUrl: "https://cdn.example.com/",
    }),
  ],
}

The plugin generates a JSON file that maps each exposed module to the chunk files it needs at runtime. This is the information a consuming application needs to know which scripts to load before importing a federated module.

Given the following Module Federation config:

const {ModuleFederationPlugin} = require("webpack").container
const FederationStatsPlugin = require("webpack-federation-stats-plugin")

module.exports = {
  plugins: [
    new ModuleFederationPlugin({
      name: "shop",
      exposes: {
        "./ProductCard": "./src/components/ProductCard",
        "./CartIcon": "./src/components/CartIcon",
        "./useCart": "./src/hooks/useCart",
      },
    }),
    new FederationStatsPlugin(),
  ],
}

The plugin will emit a federation-stats.json like this:

{
  "name": "shop",
  "exposes": {
    "ProductCard": ["vendors-node_modules_react-dom_index_js.js", "vendors-node_modules_styled-components_dist_index_js.js", "src_components_ProductCard_index_tsx.js"],
    "CartIcon": ["vendors-node_modules_react-dom_index_js.js", "src_components_CartIcon_index_tsx.js"],
    "useCart": ["src_hooks_useCart_ts.js"]
  }
}

Each key under exposes corresponds to an exposed module (without the ./ prefix), and its value is the list of chunk files that must be loaded for that module to work.

When a publicUrl is provided, it is included in the output so consumers can resolve the full URL for each chunk:

{
  "name": "shop",
  "publicUrl": "https://cdn.example.com/shop/",
  "exposes": {
    "ProductCard": ["vendors-node_modules_react-dom_index_js.js", "vendors-node_modules_styled-components_dist_index_js.js", "src_components_ProductCard_index_tsx.js"],
    "CartIcon": ["vendors-node_modules_react-dom_index_js.js", "src_components_CartIcon_index_tsx.js"],
    "useCart": ["src_hooks_useCart_ts.js"]
  }
}
