How to create multiple output paths in Webpack config

Webpack does support multiple output paths.

Set the output paths as the entry key. And use the name as output template.

webpack config:

entry: {
    'module/a/index': 'module/a/index.js',
    'module/b/index': 'module/b/index.js',
},
output: {
    path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
    filename: '[name].js'
}

generated:

└── module
    ├── a
    │   └── index.js
    └── b
        └── index.js

I'm not sure if we have the same problem since webpack only support one output per configuration as of Jun 2016. I guess you already seen the issue on Github.

But I separate the output path by using the multi-compiler. (i.e. separating the configuration object of webpack.config.js).

var config = {
    // TODO: Add common Configuration
    module: {},
};

var fooConfig = Object.assign({}, config, {
    name: "a",
    entry: "./a/app",
    output: {
       path: "./a",
       filename: "bundle.js"
    },
});
var barConfig = Object.assign({}, config,{
    name: "b",
    entry: "./b/app",
    output: {
       path: "./b",
       filename: "bundle.js"
    },
});

// Return Array of Configurations
module.exports = [
    fooConfig, barConfig,       
];

If you have common configuration among them, you could use the extend library or Object.assign in ES6 or {...} spread operator in ES7.
