Chrome Extension: Not loading source-maps

Question

I am not able to load sourcemap in Chrome Extension for some reason.

The folder which is being loaded for Chrome Extension has .map just next to .js<

Answer 1

Setting the following property in webpack.config.js worked for me:

module.exports = {
    //Configuration parameters

    devtool: 'eval-source-map',

    //Other configuration parameters
}

Edit: You'll also have to update manifest.json to allow eval:

"content_security_policy": "script-src 'self' 'unsafe-eval'; object-src 'self'"
