No dependencies to successor loader

[norentkhy]

Good day,

I have a webpack config, in which html-files are loaded dynamically. More specifically html-files are loaded through [html-loader → extract-loader → file-loader]. In this journey I have found that extract-loader does not output the dependency js-files to file-loader.

I have found that directly referring to file-loader explicitly works, so this tells me that we can solve this somehow with modifications to extract-loader (and perhaps also file-loader).

The potential solutions I see:

• perhaps we can have extract-loader output an array of file-content, which file-loader then picks up and creates several files out of;
• or perhaps we can give extract-loader an extra option to emit dependencies to the successor loader in some other way.
  • an example would be inlining the successor loader for dependencies `{ ..., dependencyLoaders: 'file-loader!'}

I am willing to spend time on implementing the changes for a pull request.

Cheers.
