node.js - How can I make webpack skip a require

Question

How can I make webpack skip occurences of

require('shelljs/global');

in my source files? I want to make a bundle of my source files but keep the require('shelljs/global') in the files and not bundle shelljs/global.

If you store the path in a variable then IgnorePlugin will not work. Though you still could do:

const myCustomModule = eval('require')(myCustomPath)
