TypeError: publicPath.replace is not a function when output.publicPath of webpack config is a function

[roland-reed]

Bug report

When using function in output.publicPath of Webpack config, the loader of mini-css-extract-plugin seems to handle this situation incorrectly and leading to an error(see below).

If this is a bug, I'm glad to make a PR

Actual Behavior

assets by status 822 bytes [cached] 1 asset
runtime modules 663 bytes 3 modules
cacheable modules 71 bytes
  ./src/index.js 32 bytes [built] [code generated]
  ./src/index.css 39 bytes [built] [code generated] [1 error]

ERROR in ./src/index.css
Module build failed (from ./node_modules/.pnpm/[email protected][email protected]/node_modules/mini-css-extract-plugin/dist/loader.js):
TypeError: publicPath.replace is not a function
    at Object.pitch (/Users/username/Workspace/test/webpack-demo/node_modules/.pnpm/[email protected][email protected]/node_modules/mini-css-extract-plugin/dist/loader.js:176:114)
 @ ./src/index.js 1:0-21

webpack 5.64.4 compiled with 1 error in 285 ms

Expected Behavior

Expect no errors would be throw.

How Do We Reproduce?

Reproduce repository: https://github.com/roland-reed/mini-css-extract-plugin-function-public-path, steps are listed in README.md

I dig a little and find that the following code should be related:

mini-css-extract-plugin/src/loader.js

Lines 182 to 192 in e8c08a1

	if (typeof options.publicPath === "string") {
	// eslint-disable-next-line prefer-destructuring
	publicPath = options.publicPath;
	} else if (typeof options.publicPath === "function") {
	publicPath = options.publicPath(this.resourcePath, this.rootContext);
	}
	if (publicPath === "auto") {
	publicPath = AUTO_PUBLIC_PATH;
	}
