extract-text-webpack-plugin difficulties getting .css file output

Question

I am using AngularClass' angular seed. I have 1 application.scss file that I am trying to get exported into a css file through webpack and the extract-text-webpack plugin. I am following the webpack stylesheets page found here: http://webpack.github.io/docs/stylesheets.html#separate-css-bundle

but I can't seem to get my .css file to appear in my /dist folder after running webpack.

Does anyone have any ideas?

I have included my webpack config file below.

/**

const webpack = require('webpack');
const helpers = require('./helpers');

I fixed my own issue. I didn't realize that I needed to include the source path of my scss file since it was several folders deep so here is what I added to my webpack.config.js

path.join(__dirname, 'src', 'assets', 'sass', 'application.scss')

in the entry section.
