Breaks CSS SVG backgrounds

[steve-king]

This plugin doesn't inline into CSS which is fine, however it breaks existing SVG backround images.

In my CSS output I'm now getting reference to a non-existent JS file like so:

background-image: url('dist/my-svg.1234.js')

Thanks @steve-king,
I suspect this plugin needs a rewriting with the new versions of Parcel.
I expect the erratic behaviour.
What Parcel version are you using?

Hi @albinotonnina, thanks for the response and thanks for the useful plugin.

I'm on ParcelJS v1.10.3

If I could just tell parcel to ignore my SVG files I could use a copy plugin instead, but there is no .parcelignore type feature.

I can't seem to make this plugin output a SVG string into the CSS file - if that was possible we could create a Data URL but also I can't see a way to know what file type the parent dependency is (e.g. is the SVG being included from JS or CSS file)

ParcelJS is great but I think I've made a big mistake using this on a real project 😕

does it support ignoring?
