### Electron Forge version
6.0.0-beta.58
### Electron version
17.2.0
### Operating system
macOS 12.5
### Last known working Electron Forge version
_No response_
### Expected behavior
Consistent inability to compile the main process between `electron-forge start` and `electron-forge make` in the presence of linting errors.
### Actual behavior
I'm using eslint-webpack-plugin (https://webpack.js.org/plugins/eslint-webpack-plugin/) in an electron project that uses forge and forge's webpack plugin. I have both a webpack.main.config.js and a webpack.renderer.config.js that use the following code:
```
const ESLintPlugin = require("eslint-webpack-plugin");
const plugins = [
new ESLintPlugin({ extensions: [ "ts", "tsx" ] })
];
module.exports = {
entry: "./src/Electron/index.ts",
devtool: "source-map",
module: {
rules: require("./webpack.rules"),
},
resolve: {
extensions: [ ".js", ".ts", ".jsx", ".tsx", ".css", ".json" ],
plugins: [
new TsconfigPathsPlugin()
]
},
externals: {
},
plugins
};
```
Now the interesting thing is that the renderer process lints everything perfectly, but the main process is not linted when the app is run, however when i run `electron-forge make` all of the main process typescript errors get thrown at me
So basically, forge does not appear to output the linting errors on `electron-forge start` but does on `electron-forge make`
### Steps to reproduce
1. use eslint-webpack-plugin alongside the forge webpack plugin
2. write code with a linting error in the main process
3. run `electron-forge start`: makes it past the main process compliation and the project runs just fine
4. run `electron-forge make`: errors out on the main process compilation
