4.6.0 (2022-03-01)

Features

• build: webpack@5 and webpack-dev-server@4 (#7826) (07d346b)
• swagger-ui-react: add support for persistAuthorization prop (#7842) (67dd4f6), closes #7389

Additional Notes

SwaggerUI is now built using webpack@5, with dev support for webpack-dev-server@4

• ES Module output bundle path now points to swagger-ui-es-bundle-core, which does not include dependencies
• No change to CommonJS output bundle or path
• Now uses Asset Modules, which replaces file-loader, raw-loader, and url-loader
• Removed unused rules/loaders for .woff | .woff2 | .ttf | .eot fonts and html
• Node polyfills are no longer bundled with webpack@5, and must be loaded separately and/or use resolve.fallback. As an example, SwaggerUI loads process, buffer, and stream-browserify as devDependencies in order to build development and production bundles.

SwaggerUI-React:

• Now imports swagger-ui-es-bundle-core, and similarly outputs swagger-ui-es-bundle-core to its dist directory

Dev:

• Order of execution matters for the production npm build scripts. build-stylesheets needs to get built first,
  then cleanup of any empty artifacts, before building the various production bundles
• Dev-helpers now relies on HTMLWebpackPlugin to inject css and bundle files
