Description
Hi
Versions:
`
"webpack-obfuscator": "^2.6.0",
"@vue/cli-service": "^4.5.13",
"vue": "^2.6.11",
`
I am trying to obfuscate my vue.js 2 webapp. My cue.config.js looks like this
`const fs = require('fs')
module.exports = {
chainWebpack: config => {
config.module.rules.delete('eslint')
var JavaScriptObfuscator = require('webpack-obfuscator');
config.plugin('obfuscation').enforce = 'post';
config.plugin('obfuscation').use(JavaScriptObfuscator, [

sourceMap: false,
stringArrayWrappersType: 'function',
transformObjectKeys: false,
target: 'node',
unicodeEscapeSequence: false
}, []]);
},
outputDir: process.env.OUTPUT_DIR
}`
I disabled all options but i cannot get it to work. As soon as i run `npm run serve --open` the app is compiled and the browser opens, but i get no output (i should be redirected to the login page of my app). Instead i get the attached error in my browser console
Im unsure what i am doing wrong here

Research direction
Start with the webpack configuration in cue.config.js and reproduce the problem with npm run serve --open. Compare the browser-console error shown in the attached image with the webpack-obfuscator and Vue CLI setup. Done means the webapp builds and opens to its login page without the reported browser error.
