Is it possible to create custom resolver in webpack?

Yes, it’s possible. To avoid ambiguity and for easier implementation, we’ll use a prefix hash symbol as marker of your convention:

require("#./components/SettingsPanel");

Then add this to your configuration file (of course, you can refactor it later):

var webpack = require('webpack');
var path = require('path');

var MyConventionResolver = {
  apply: function(resolver) {
    resolver.plugin('module', function(request, callback) {
      if (request.request[0] === '#') {
        var req = request.request.substr(1);
        var obj = {
          path: request.path,
          request: req + "https://stackoverflow.com/" + path.basename(req) + '.js',
          query: request.query,
          directory: request.directory
        };
        this.doResolve(['file'], obj, callback);
      }
      else {
        callback();
      }
    });
  }
};


module.exports = {
    resolve: {
      plugins: [
        MyConventionResolver
      ]
    }
    // ...
};
