Module not found: Error: Can't resolve 'fs

Question

I working on a Laravel 5.3 project. I am getting below errors when I am running gulp command in CMD.

Could anyone say how can I get a error less result ?

gulpfile.js

var elixir = require('laravel-elixir');

require('laravel-elixir-vue');

elixir(function(mix) {
    mix.sass('app.scss');
});


elixir(function(mix) {
   mix.webpack('app.js');
}); 


elixir(function(mix) {
    mix.version(['css/app.css', 'js/app.js']);
});

package.json

{
  "private": true,
  "scripts": {
    "prod": "gulp --production",
    "dev": "gulp watch"

Answer 1

Try adding

Elixir.webpack.mergeConfig({
  node: {
    fs: 'empty',
  }
});

To your gulpfile.js. Looks like this is a known webpack problem. Here's your file edited:

var elixir = require('laravel-elixir');

require('laravel-elixir-vue');

Elixir.webpack.mergeConfig({
  node: {
    fs: 'empty',
  }
});


elixir(function(mix) {
    mix.sass('app.scss');
});


elixir(function(mix) {
   mix.webpack('app.js');
}); 


elixir(function(mix) {
    mix.version(['css/app.css', 'js/app.js']);
});

If your using Laravel 5.5, simply add :

mix.webpackConfig({ node: { fs: 'empty' }})

to your webpack.mix.js file.
