如何重新编译我的NodeJS应用程序以更新文件？为什么图像编码？为什么工作流程如此糟糕？

初学者问题。有一个在服务器上运行的应用程序，它是一个复杂的应用程序。

现在在客户端目录中有一个名为index.html的索引文件（我以为node正在使用express / routed，它在那里做什么）

module.exports = merge(baseWebpackConfig, {
  module: {
    rules: utils.styleLoaders({ sourceMap: config.dev.cssSourceMap })
  },
  // cheap-module-eval-source-map is faster for development
  //devtool: '#cheap-module-eval-source-map',
  devtool: '#source-map',
  plugins: [
    new webpack.DefinePlugin({
      'process.env': config.dev.env
    }),
    // 
    new webpack.HotModuleReplacementPlugin(),
    new webpack.NoEmitOnErrorsPlugin(),
    // 
    new HtmlWebpackPlugin({
      filename: 'index.html',
      template: 'index.html',
      inject: true
    }),
    new FriendlyErrorsPlugin()
  ]
})

1）为什么图像URLS编码？而我可以改为粘贴绝对URL？这不是开发人员友好的，如果他们没有适当的视图并需要额外的步骤，我会立即放弃Node

<img class="color loader-box-image" data-v-553e61a2="" alt=. src="data:image/png;base64,iVBOR....." LONG STRING />

2）好吧假设我在那里更新索引文件，它不会更新实时页面。我必须假设索引文件是缓存的，或者Node本身正在缓存它的某个版本。 index.html只是一个静态文件吗？如果没有，为什么？

获得简化工作流程的最佳做法是什么？

谢谢

编辑：我理解节点本身就像一个网络服务器（基于JS），并且必须建立路由。静态文件如何发挥作用？

您正在混淆节点和webpack。节点不对这些图像进行编码，其中一个webpack插件正在这样做以节省网络请求。

另外，您在一条评论中说过：

谢谢，好建议但我不能。我只需要修改一些CSS并交换徽标 - 这应该很简单，但为此我需要在很短的时间内对NodeJS有一个基本的了解。当我得知Node之前使用专用的文件目录时，我不明白为什么首先有一个index.html文件

您正在使用html-webpack-plugin。这会为您生成index.html文件。请勿修改生成的文件，修改生成文件的配置。否则你会得到回归。阅读该插件的文档，您应该能够找出代码中的徽标抽取位置。
