Pipeline: new created folder in build process (webpack) is empty

[Constantin Rahn]

Hey folks,

That is my bitbucket-pipline.yml so far:

image: node:6.9.4

pipelines:
  default:
    - step:
      caches:
        - node
      script:
        - npm install
        - npm run build
        - npm install dploy -g
        - dploy dev

in my 'npm run build' there is a webpack script that removes the old one and build a new folder called dist.

With the node module dploy I can copy that new created folder to my ftp. There is no problem with an existing folder but when I copy the dist folder it is always empty. Is there anything I missed here or is anyone facing the same probs?

Thank you guys in advance for your advices.

it was my fault, the new created folder was in my gitignore list. I already fixed the problem

 are running into this issue as well. did you end up having to add your entire dist folder to the repo?

I am also looking for a better working solution. Do not want to check in my build files in the actual repo. 

I also tried to add a git-ftp-include with the build folder. But it does not work.... any other solutions?
