webpack css "SyntaxError: Unexpected token {"

Question

I'm new to webpack, trying to configure webpack to pack my CSS files with these loaders:

'use strict';
require('./hosted/.tmp/styles/test.css');

module.exports = {
    devtool: 'eval-source-map',
    entry: {
        js:  './hosted/.tmp/scripts/script*.js'
    },
    output: {
        path: __dirname + './hosted',
        filename: 'dcae-bundle.js'
    },
    module: {
        loaders: [
            {test: /\.css$/, loader: "style-loader!css-loader"}
        ]
    }
};

I have only one file test.css with the following:

body,html{height:100%}

When running webpack, I'm getting the error:

C:\Development\Angular\Others\PounchOut\dcaeapp\hosted\.tmp\styles\test.css:1
(function (exports, require, module, __filename, __dirname) { body,html{height:100%}
                                                                  ^

    at Module._compile (module.js:425:26)
    at Object.Module._extensions..js (module.js:432:10)

What is the problem?

Thanks in advance

I found the problem, I do not need to use the require with path to the file. This is the final web.config:

'use strict';

module.exports = {
    devtool: 'eval-source-map',
    entry: {
        js:  ['./hosted/.tmp/scripts/scripts.js','./hosted/.tmp/styles/main.css']
    },
    output: {
        path: __dirname + '/hosted',
        filename: 'dcae-bundle.js'
    },
    module: {
        loaders: [
            {test: /\.(js|jsx)$/, loaders: ['babel-loader'], exclude: /node_modules/},
            {test: /\.css$/, loader: "style-loader!css-loader"},
        ]
    }
};
