Make filenames / paths in error messages links to source files

[0x80]

With webpack-dev-server syntax errors appeared in the browser console with a clickable link to the source. Can I achieve the same with hot middleware?

It should be possible, yes - we'd just need to figure out what webpack-dev-server was doing for formatting that this module isn't.

It might also be possible to use the same approach in the overlay.

I'm unlikely to find any time to work on this in the near future, but more investigationg or PRs will be gladly welcomed & I can assist from there.

On second thought I don't think this is very useful. As I understand it, the clickable error will point you to the source (map) of the files that were compiled last before the syntax error occurred, since a syntax error will never result in a source map.

Babel's syntax errors give you the file and line number, so linking to the location should be possible I reckon.
