How to stop webpack using caching/hashing output files

I've been bundling my nodejs web app with webpack using a template.



The webpack config in this had:



 output: {
filename: `[name].js?v=[${project.build.hashType}]`,
path: project.paths.public(),
publicPath: APP_PUBLIC_PATH },


The issue is our new CDN/proxy setup doesn't work with these query strings appended - it causes a mismatch with the MIME type in the headers and wont render anything in the browser.



I've done the obvious and removed the query string ?v=[${project.build.hashType}]. But for some reason the assets are still appended with the same hash.



enter image description here



The command I'm running to build is



$ cross-env NODE_ENV=production DEBUG=app:* webpack --bail --config config/webpack.config.js



Does webpack cache these hashes? I cannot find them in the file structure. I'm quite inexperienced with webpack so any guidance will be highly appreciated. Cheers.

          Found the issue...



          There was a webpack middleware using a prewritten buildstats file that contained the file versions, so my changes to the output files were never reached.
