Summary

Preserve live ESM library exports when top-level await, module factories, or merged entries prevent direct native bindings; reexports and aliases now observe later writes without discarding earlier rendering hooks.

What kind of change does this PR introduce?

fix

Did you add tests for your changes?

Yes: test/configCases/library/module-tla-live-bindings/ covers 30 configurations; 694 targeted execution and persistent-cache tests pass.

Does this PR introduce a breaking change?

No.

If relevant, what needs to be documented once your changes are merged or what have you already documented?

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Module library exports now preserve live bindings, so changes to exported values remain visible to consumers.
    • Default exports, re-exports, and aliased exports retain updates across synchronous and asynchronous module execution.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage for live export updates, including reassignment, destructuring, delayed writes, and renamed bindings.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change records writes to selected ESM exports and connects them to runtime subscriptions in wrapped module-library output. The test case checks live updates across binding writes, aliases, reexports, asynchronous modules, and several output configurations.

Changes

Wrapped module-library live bindings

Layer / File(s) Summary
Binding-write planning and instrumentation
lib/graph/ModuleGraph.js, lib/javascript/JavascriptParser.js, lib/dependencies/esm/*, lib/util/internalSerializables.js
The parser tags eligible exported bindings and records assignment, update, and destructuring writes. The dependency template instruments matching writes. ESM module parsing registers the dependency and parser plugin.
Export-name data and runtime registry
lib/library/ModuleLibraryPlugin.js, lib/runtime/RuntimeGlobals.js, lib/library/ExportBindingRuntimeModule.js
ModuleLibraryPlugin records aliases for eligible entry exports and installs runtime support. The runtime registry stores listeners by module ID and export name.
Wrapper subscriptions
lib/library/ModuleLibraryPlugin.js, .changeset/041-module-library-default-expression.md
Startup rendering uses mutable declarations and subscriptions for exports with recorded bindings. The changeset describes preserving module-library default expressions and live exports in wrapped entries.
Live-binding configuration coverage
test/configCases/library/module-tla-live-bindings/*
The test covers updates to exports and aliases, reexports, asynchronous and partial writes, rendering hooks, and multiple module-library configurations.

Suggested reviewers: alexander-akait

Priority: ➖ Normal

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 095ee

Wrapped module-library exports now stay live when exported bindings are written, and no remaining merge-blocking concern was found. The change is covered by a broad test matrix.

Security Architecture Review Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 095ee

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 095ee

The reviewed flow preserves export ownership and does not establish a new privilege or cross-application access path. The main remaining uncertainty concerns subscription lifetime during failed startup, repeated initialization, and recovery.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The directly supported exposure is the generated runtime and its consumers of instrumented library exports. Registry identities are runtime-local and owner-qualified; the reviewed flow does not establish cross-runtime, tenant, data-store, or infrastructure authority.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • inferred — Source-authored export names pass through parser tags and module-graph ownership metadata before reaching generated runtime calls. The reviewed subscriptions use build-time identities, not a newly introduced runtime request or authenticated identity. This counters the routed boundary-bypass hypothesis without establishing safety for uninspected consumers.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Registration appends listeners without duplicate suppression or cleanup. Notification iterates the live listener array without catching exceptions, after the underlying write. Ordinary generated listeners are simple local assignments, and destructuring notifications follow individual target writes; these facts do not establish an exploitable failure path. Repeated initialization and recovery remain unverified.

Add the Author line to the license headers of the new files.

This PR adds two files under lib/. Each header has the MIT license line but no Author line. The repository guideline requires an Author line that names the real author of each new file.

  • lib/library/ExportBindingRuntimeModule.js#L1-L3: add Author <Name> @<github-handle> after the MIT license line.
  • lib/library/exportBindingWrites.js#L1-L3: add Author <Name> @<github-handle> after the MIT license line.

As per coding guidelines: "When adding a new file, set the Author line to its actual author (Author <Name> @<github-handle>) — don't copy another file's author line."

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Re-parse with the module's configured parse function, not the default parser.

ConcatenatedModule._analyseModule re-parses generated code with JavascriptParser._getModuleParseFunction(this.compilation, m). It also enables importPhases only when the experiments are on. This helper always calls JavascriptParser._parse with the default parser. A user can set a custom parse function for module.parser.javascript, and that parser can accept syntax that the default parser rejects. The generated body keeps that syntax. If the default parser rejects it, _parse throws inside afterCodeGeneration, and the build fails. The failure affects only module-library entries that have a wrapped live export.

Pass the compilation and the module into exportBindingWrites from both call sites in ModuleLibraryPlugin.js (Line 217 and Line 327). Then use the same parse-function selection that ConcatenatedModule uses.

Proposed direction
-module.exports = (source, names, moduleId) => {
-	const { ast } = JavascriptParser._parse(String(source.source()), {
-		sourceType: "module",
-		ranges: true,
-		importPhases: true
-	});
+module.exports = (source, names, moduleId, compilation, module) => {
+	const { experiments } = compilation.options;
+	const { ast } = JavascriptParser._parse(
+		String(source.source()),
+		{
+			sourceType: "module",
+			ranges: true,
+			importPhases: Boolean(
+				experiments.deferImport || experiments.sourceImport
+			)
+		},
+		JavascriptParser._getModuleParseFunction(compilation, module)

Read Changed, test untouched first: the test is byte-identical on both sides, so webpack generated the difference. Changed, test edited moved partly because the test did — Test edit is how many bytes the test gained, and a bundle that grew by less is not a regression. New and Deleted are whole files, not deltas — a new asset was created, not grown, so it reads gray (⚪ added) — and adding tests cannot bury a real change. Gzip decides, because that is what users download; raw is the tiebreak, and brotli and zstd are per asset below.

No asset that both runs emit changed size — everything below is new or deleted.

We should think how to solve it without reparsing - our goal in future is avoiding reparsing at all
