yarn run hot "ENOENT: no such file or directory"

• Laravel Mix Version: 1.4.2
• Node Version: v8.4.0
• NPM Version: 5.4.1
• OS: macOS 10.12.6

Description:

When running yarn run hot I get the following error. I have verified permissions on the public directory being 0755 since this is a local development environment. It appears that the HMR is not compiling those assets and pushing them into place as that file indeed does not exist.

$ yarn run hot
yarn run v1.0.1
$ cross-env NODE_ENV=development node_modules/webpack-dev-server/bin/webpack-dev-server.js --inline --hot --config=node_modules/laravel-mix/setup/webpack.config.js

My webpack.mix.js contains:

let mix = require('laravel-mix');

if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production') {
    mix.disableNotifications();
}

mix.webpackConfig({
       devtool: 'source-map'
   })
   .autoload({
       jquery: ['$', 'window.jQuery', 'jQuery', 'jquery'],
       'popper.js/dist/umd/popper.js': ['Popper']
   })
   .js('resources/assets/js/app.js', 'public/js')
   .extract([
       // Bootstrap/jQuery
       'jquery',
       'jquery.payment',
       'jquery.phone',
       'popper.js',
       'bootstrap',

       // Vendors
       'axios',
       'babel-polyfill',
       'es6-promise',
       'lodash',

       'moment-timezone',

       // Vue
       'vue',

       'vue-router',
   ])
   .sass('resources/assets/sass/app.scss', 'public/css')
   .version();

This appears to be caused by the mix.version() at the end. If I add NODE_HOT=true to the hot command in package.json. Then change mix.version() to the following HMR works.

if (!process.env.NODE_HOT) {
    mix.version();
}

Is there a native way to detect if running in HMR so I don't have to add the extra ENVVAR?

Thank you for this, worked a charm.

// Version does not work in HMR mode
if (process.env.npm_lifecycle_event !== 'hot') {
  mix.version()
}

Needed this on an old project thanks :)
