Then add the loader to your webpack config for a specific file type. For example:

webpack.config.js

module.exports = {
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.js/i,
        loader: 'webpack-file-inherit',
      },
    ],
  },
};

Inheritance

This loader enables you to exends files is a simlier way that pug templting engine do you have to define blocks first

Parent.js

var x = 16;
/* @block secondValue */
var y = 15;
/* @terminate block */
console.log(x*y);

Child.js

/* @extends "./Parent.js" */
/* @block secondValue */
var y = 0;
/* @terminate block */

bunding the Child.js will result this file

var x = 16;
var y = 0;
console.log(x*y);
