WebStorm 2017.1
Build #WS-171.3780.79, built on March 17, 2017

Im working with with in a node.js project and am getting unresolved function or method warnings in the ide. My understanding is that I should not be getting this if the npm package is installed in the project node_modules folder but i get them anyway. I try install via the Preferences/Libraries and Frameworks to no avail.

I also tried invalidating cache and restarting but that also did not work. Screenshot below: Note the error "Unresolved Type DedupePlugin". How do I get my types registered in the system? Thank you

Plugin modules are exported in the following way in webpack:

function exportPlugins(exports, path, plugins) {
    plugins.forEach(function(name) {
        Object.defineProperty(exports, name, {
            configurable: false,
            enumerable: true,
            get: function() {
                return require(path + "/" + name);
            }
        });
    });
}

exportPlugins(exports, ".", [
    "DefinePlugin",
    "NormalModuleReplacementPlugin",
...
]);


such dynamically generated modules can hardly be resolved during static analysis.

workaround is using typescript stubs (Preferences | Languages & Frameworks | JavaScript | Libraries, Download.., choose 'webpack');

Webpack is not an option on that path. See screenshot. I guess you are referring to webpack 2 for the syntax? I will check it.
