support asset modules with generator

[xurna]

Hi! 👋

Firstly, thanks for your work on this project! 🙂

Today I used patch-package to patch [email protected] for the project I'm working on.

When I use webapck 5 , to add a module rule width generator,
not use webapck chain,the code like this:
rules: [ { test: /\.png/, type: 'asset', generator: { filename: 'img/[name].[hash:8][ext]' } } ]
to use weback chain, the code is
config.module .rule('images') .type('asset') .generator({ filename: 'img/[name].[hash:8][ext]', }) .parser({ dataUrlCondition: { maxSize: 5 * 1024 })
but it accur error:
TypeError: config.module.rule(...).test(...).type(...).generator is not a function

I found that the lastest webpack-chain is not support generator, so
Here is the diff that solved my problem:

diff --git a/node_modules/webpack-chain/src/Rule.js b/node_modules/webpack-chain/src/Rule.js
index f300699..ef383b5 100644

         'test',
         'type',

       ]);
     }
 

This issue body was partially generated by patch-package.

Do it like this.

{
  chainWebpack: (config) => {
    config.module
      .rule('svg')
      .test(/\.svg$/)
      .type('asset/inline')
      .set(
        'generator',
        { dataUrl: (content) => svgToMiniDataURI(content.toString()) },
      );
  },
}
