Dependency Management | webpack

A context is created if your request contains expressions, so the exact module is not known on compile time.
Example, given we have the following folder structure including .ejs files:
When following import() or require() call is evaluated:
Webpack parses the import() or require() call and extracts some information:
A context module is generated. It contains references to all modules in that directory that can be required with a request matching the regular expression. The context module contains a map which translates requests to module ids.
The context module also contains some runtime logic to access the map.
This means dynamic calls are supported but will cause all matching modules to be included in the bundle.
The ESM equivalent of require.context is import.meta.webpackContext.
The arguments passed to import.meta.webpackContext must be literals!
You can create your own context with the require.context() function.
It allows you to pass in a directory to search, a flag indicating whether subdirectories should be searched too, and a regular expression to match files against.
Webpack parses for require.context() in the code while building.
The syntax is as follows:
The arguments passed to require.context must be literals!
A context module exports a (require) function that takes one argument: the request.
The exported function has 3 properties: resolve, keys, id.
This can be useful if you want to require all files in a directory or matching a pattern, Example:
