the plugin run twice

[vineetkumar19871503]

It is happening with me as well. First of all it removes the build directory then webpack makes a build and then immediately it is removed again.

There was a script in my package.json:
"start": "webpack --config ./configs/dev.webpack.config.js && webpack-dev-server --config ./configs/dev.webpack.config.js"
Two commands (separated "&&") invoked cleaning two times. In my case the problem was there.

Is this still happening?

@johnagan this is happening to me, also. Was there ever any resolution to this issue?

Have you enabled the "watch" option?

I Just submitted a pull request which only performs the clean after succesfull compiliation and just before the new files are emitted to the output dir:
#72

this is happening to me, I think it has something to do with using webpack-dev-server along with this plugin

I've got exactly the same problem; leaving one ampersand instead of two, fixed problem, @fqf Many thanks !
