A file plugin help you remove old files after webpack (v5) bundling

del-webpack-plugin's Issues

npmjs.org readme issue

Look at this section:
const DelWebpackPlugin = require('clean-webpack-plugin')
Seems it's a typo.

extra dependencies?

from the code, it seems that only 'del' and 'chalk' are dependencies, others should be 'devDependencies'.

files in output will been default exclude?

I want to delete files in output path, but I see the source code has auto ignore the files in output path

// exclude files
const excludePatterns = [
  outputPath,
  ...this.options.exclude.map(name => path.join(outputPath, name)),
  ...assetNames.map(name => path.join(outputPath, name))
]

need include option

Very often I could put unneeded files into a single directory ("trash"), which I'd like to remove. So it would be is much easy to include single "trash" directory to the plugin process, than enum every created file in exclude option.

DeprecationWarning in the latest version.

I'm using version 1.0.5 of del-webpack-plugin, during build I receive this warning:

Tapable.plugin is deprecated.

Got this error with webpack 4.

(node:26967) DeprecationWarning: Tapable.plugin is deprecated. Use new API on `.hooks` instead

I would create a pull request but I really don't know how to fix this.

Directories with new files not excluded automatically

Hello.
Plugin by default removes all directories inside /build dir, because they're not listed in "added files" but matched by '**' includes.

For example, at start i have clean /build dir.
My webpack created sprites in /build/sprites/1.png dir.
And then plugin removes /build/sprites dir with my newly creates sprite.

Thus, it's needed to automatically exclude not only files, but also directories which has files which was created.
