Can't build project with webpack: Error: Can't resolve './lib-cov/client'

Published v4.0.0. Give it a try!

I just adjusted the webpack config - not to say that this is convenient, but it's more convenient that building some dependencies inside of node_modules:

Add the following to the plugins of your webpack config

new webpack.NormalModuleReplacementPlugin(/\.\/lib-cov\/.*/, resource => {
    resource.request = resource.request.replace("-cov", "");
})

Caution: If you have other modules that contain ./lib-cov/ as part of their path, it will break those - in such a case I guess you'll need to add a separate entry for each of those 3 files.

Btw.: I'm using webpack4, so I'm not 100% sure if it's exactly the same with webpack2 or 1, but there should be similar alternatives. (see: https://webpack.js.org/plugins/normal-module-replacement-plugin/)

@jsinai I've not used webpack but do you think this would make it deal with it better:

module.exports = {
  Server: require(process.env.SSDP_COV ? "./lib-cov/server" : "./lib/server"),
  Client: require(process.env.SSDP_COV ? "./lib-cov/client" : "./lib/client"),
  Base: require(process.env.SSDP_COV ? "./lib-cov/index" : "./lib/index")
}

since it sounds like the issue is with using require?

Or, I can do this check in the tests themselves so it would be complete out of the main module. Actually. that's what I'll do, it's cleaner.

Sorry for the very late response, but your fix worked.
