Webpack & TypeScript: require () with variable as argument, case with alias

As you know, in Webpack, you cannot simply substitute a variable as a require() argument. I read a lot of discussions on this topic and, frankly, did not understand how to solve this problem. Specifically, in my case, it is necessary not only to make the require() argument a variable, but also the path, which is the value of the variable, contains an alias (in this example, projectOpenScripts ):

 export default class Resources { constructor(pathToResourcesFile: string){ // true console.log(pathToResourcesFile === 'projectOpenScripts/resources/resources.json5') // works let parsedResources = require('projectOpenScripts/resources/resources.json5'); // does not work let parsedResources = require(pathToResourcesFile); console.log(parsedResources.c) } } 

I use TypeScript , because my aliases are declared not only in webpack.config.js , but also in tsconfig.json :

tsconfig.json

 { "compilerOptions": { // ... "baseUrl": "./", "projectOpenScripts": ["development/1_Source/1_open/3_scripts"] }, "types": [ // Need for require() and require.ensure "webpack-env" ] } } 

In addition to solving this problem, you need to do something with the warning Critical dependency: the request of a dependency is an expression from the TypeScript compiler.

I can not believe that this problem can not be solved. After all, such restrictions as "it is impossible to substitute a variable as the require () argument" contradict the concept of programming.
