SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/api-plugin LANGUAGE: js CODE: ``` const myPlugin = () => ({ name: 'configure-preview-server', configurePreviewServer(server) { // return a post hook that is called after other middlewares are // installed return () => { server.middlewares.use((req, res, next) => { // custom handle request... }) } }, }) ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite API Migration: Server to Environment Instances DESCRIPTION: Guides Vite plugin authors on migrating from deprecated ViteDevServer methods to their new locations within DevEnvironment instances. This change is crucial for compatibility with Vite v6 and beyond. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/changes/per-environment-apis LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` Vite API Migration Guide: This section outlines the migration path for Vite plugin authors from deprecated `ViteDevServer` methods to the new `DevEnvironment` instances, introduced in Vite v6. **Motivation:** In Vite v5 and earlier, a single Vite dev server managed both `client` and `ssr` environments. APIs like `server.moduleGraph` and `server.transformRequest` handled modules from both, often requiring an `ssr` boolean parameter. Vite v6 allows for multiple custom environments (e.g., `client`, `ssr`, `edge`). To accommodate this, methods have been moved to the respective `environment` instances, simplifying their usage and removing the need for an `ssr` flag. **Affected Scope:** Vite Plugin Authors **Future Deprecation:** Deprecation of `server.moduleGraph` and other methods now located in environments is planned for a future major release. It is not recommended to move away from server methods immediately, but identifying usage is advised. **Migration Steps:** * **Module Graph Access:** - **Old:** `server.moduleGraph` - **New:** `environment.moduleGraph` - **Reference:** [/guide/api-environment-instances#separate-module-graphs](/guide/api-environment-instances#separate-module-graphs) * **Transform Request:** - **Old:** `server.transformRequest(url, { ssr })` - **New:** `environment.transformRequest(url)` * **Warmup Request:** - **Old:** `server.warmupRequest(url, { ssr })` - **New:** `environment.warmupRequest(url)` **Example of API Usage Change:** ```javascript // Before Vite v6 async function handleRequest(server, url, ssr) { const module = await server.moduleGraph.getModuleByUrl(url, ssr); const transformed = await server.transformRequest(url, { ssr }); await server.warmupRequest(url, { ssr }); // ... } // After Vite v6 (using a specific environment instance) async function handleRequest(environment, url) { const module = await environment.moduleGraph.getModuleByUrl(url); const transformed = await environment.transformRequest(url); await environment.warmupRequest(url); // ... } ``` **Related Methods/Concepts:** - `DevEnvironment` instances: Allow creation of custom environments beyond `client` and `ssr`. - `server.moduleGraph`: Previously held modules from all environments, now separated per `DevEnvironment`. - `server.transformRequest`: Previously required an `ssr` option, now context-aware within the `environment`. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Create Workerd Development Environment DESCRIPTION: Provides an example of a TypeScript function `createWorkerdDevEnvironment` that instantiates Vite's `DevEnvironment`. It sets up custom resolve conditions and a `HotChannel` for communication, enabling hot module replacement for the Workerd runtime. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/api-environment-runtimes LANGUAGE: ts CODE: ``` import { DevEnvironment, HotChannel } from 'vite' function createWorkerdDevEnvironment( name: string, config: ResolvedConfig, context: DevEnvironmentContext ) { const connection = /* ... */ const transport: HotChannel = { on: (listener) => { connection.on('message', listener) }, send: (data) => connection.send(data), } const workerdDevEnvironment = new DevEnvironment(name, config, { options: { resolve: { conditions: ['custom'] }, ...context.options, }, hot: true, transport, }) return workerdDevEnvironment } ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Scaffold Vite Project (Basic) DESCRIPTION: Commands to create a new Vite project using different package managers.

Accepts an options object compatible with Node.js's `https.createServer()`. A basic setup can use `@vitejs/plugin-basic-ssl`, but custom certificates are recommended. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/config/server-options LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` server.https Type: https.ServerOptions Description: Enable TLS + HTTP/2. The value is an options object passed to `https.createServer()`. Note that this downgrades to TLS only when the `server.proxy` option is also used. A valid certificate is needed. For a basic setup, you can add `@vitejs/plugin-basic-ssl` to the project plugins, which will automatically create and cache a self-signed certificate. But we recommend creating your own certificates. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite Server Auto Open Configuration DESCRIPTION: Configures automatic browser opening upon server start. Can be a boolean to open the default URL or a string to specify a pathname. Environment variables `process.env.BROWSER` and `process.env.BROWSER_ARGS` can customize the browser and arguments.

JavaScript API: Offers programmatic access to Vite's features and configuration. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite build.cssTarget Configuration DESCRIPTION: Allows setting a specific browser target for CSS minification, separate from the JavaScript transpilation target. This is useful for non-mainstream browsers that might have different CSS feature support. For example, targeting `chrome61` can prevent transformation of `rgba()` to `#RGBA` hex notation. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/config/build-options LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` build.cssTarget: Type: string | string[] Default: the same as [`build.target`](#build-target) Description: This option allows users to set a different browser target for CSS minification from the one used for JavaScript transpilation. It should only be used when targeting a non-mainstream browser. For example, Android WeChat WebView supports modern JS but not `#RGBA` hex colors in CSS, requiring `build.cssTarget` to be set to `chrome61` to prevent Vite from transforming `rgba()` colors. Example: // Target CSS for Chrome 61 compatibility // build: { // cssTarget: 'chrome61' // } ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite HotUpdate Hook: Custom Event Example DESCRIPTION: Demonstrates using the `hotUpdate` hook to send a custom HMR event ('special-update') to the client for custom update logic, returning an empty array to prevent default handling. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/api-environment-plugins LANGUAGE: js CODE: ``` hotUpdate() { if (this.environment.name !== 'client') return this.environment.hot.send({ type: 'custom', event: 'special-update', data: {} }) return [] } ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Configure Vite Host for VS Code Devcontainers DESCRIPTION: Fixes issues with port forwarding in VS Code Dev Containers by setting the server host option.

SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/static-deploy LANGUAGE: shell CODE: ``` # Follow Kinsta's guide for Vite quickstart. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Configure Vite Server Proxy Rules DESCRIPTION: Defines custom proxy rules for the Vite development server. Supports string shorthand, options objects, and RegExp for flexible request routing. Any requests starting with a configured key will be proxied to the specified target. Extends http-proxy options. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/config/server-options LANGUAGE: javascript CODE: ``` export default defineConfig({ server: { proxy: { // string shorthand: // http://localhost:5173/foo // -> http://localhost:4567/foo '/foo': 'http://localhost:4567', // with options: // http://localhost:5173/api/bar // -> http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/bar '/api': { target: 'http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com', changeOrigin: true, rewrite: (path) => path.replace(/^\/api/, ''), }, // with RegExp: // http://localhost:5173/fallback/ // -> http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/ '^/fallback/.*': { target: 'http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com', changeOrigin: true, rewrite: (path) => path.replace(/^\/fallback/, ''), }, // Using the proxy instance '/api': { target: 'http://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com', changeOrigin: true, configure: (proxy, options) => { // proxy will be an instance of 'http-proxy' }, }, // Proxying websockets or socket.io: // ws://localhost:5173/socket.io // -> ws://localhost:5174/socket.io // Exercise caution using `rewriteWsOrigin` as it can leave the // proxying open to CSRF attacks. '/socket.io': { target: 'ws://localhost:5174', ws: true, rewriteWsOrigin: true, }, }, }, }) ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Spin up a Vite-powered app DESCRIPTION: Command to quickly create a new Vite project. Requires Node.js version 12 or higher. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/blog/announcing-vite2 LANGUAGE: bash CODE: ``` npm init @vitejs/app ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite Build and Preview Scripts DESCRIPTION: Defines npm scripts for building a Vite application (`vite build`) and previewing the production build locally (`vite preview`). These are essential for managing the build and deployment process. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/static-deploy LANGUAGE: json CODE: ``` { "scripts": { "build": "vite build", "preview": "vite preview" } } ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Patching Dependencies for Strict Mode Issues DESCRIPTION: When encountering errors related to strict mode in dependencies (e.g., `with` statements), you can use patching tools like `patch-package`, `yarn patch`, or `pnpm patch` to modify the dependency code. This acts as an escape hatch for incompatible code. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/troubleshooting LANGUAGE: bash CODE: ``` npm install patch-package postinstall-postinstall ``` LANGUAGE: bash CODE: ``` npx patch-package ``` LANGUAGE: bash CODE: ``` yarn patch ``` LANGUAGE: bash CODE: ``` pnpm patch ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite build.lib Configuration DESCRIPTION: Configures Vite to build the project as a library. It allows specifying entry points, library name, output formats, and file names for JavaScript and CSS. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/config/build-options LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` build.lib: Type: { entry: string | string[] | { [entryAlias: string]: string }, name?: string, formats?: ('es' | 'cjs' | 'umd' | 'iife')[], fileName?: string | ((format: ModuleFormat, entryName: string) => string), cssFileName?: string } Related: [Library Mode](/guide/build#library-mode) Description: Build as a library. `entry` is required since the library cannot use HTML as entry. `name` is the exposed global variable and is required when `formats` includes 'umd' or 'iife'. Default `formats` are ['es', 'umd'], or ['es', 'cjs'], if multiple entries are used. `fileName` is the name of the package file output, which defaults to the "name" in `package.json`. It can also be defined as a function taking the `format` and `entryName` as arguments, and returning the file name. If your package imports CSS, `cssFileName` can be used to specify the name of the CSS file output. It defaults to the same value as `fileName` if it's set a string, otherwise it also falls back to the "name" in `package.json`. ``` LANGUAGE: js CODE: ``` import { defineConfig } from 'vite' export default defineConfig ({ build: { lib: { entry: ['src/main.js'], fileName: ( format, entryName ) => `my-lib-${ entryName }.${ format }.js`, cssFileName: 'my-lib-style' } } }) ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Node.js Conditional Exports Example DESCRIPTION: Illustrates the `exports` field in `package.json` and how Vite's `resolve.conditions` option interacts with it. Conditional exports allow packages to specify different entry points based on environment or module type (e.g., 'import', 'require'). SOURCE: https://vite.dev/config/shared-options LANGUAGE: json CODE: ``` { "exports": { ".": { "import": "./index.mjs", "require": "./index.js" } } } ``` LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` resolve.conditions: Type: string[] Default: ['module', 'browser', 'development|production'] Description: Additional conditions for resolving Conditional Exports from packages. The `development|production` value is dynamically replaced based on `process.env.NODE_ENV`. 'import', 'require', and 'default' conditions are always applied if met. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite: Create and Use FetchableDevEnvironment DESCRIPTION: Demonstrates creating a Vite server with a custom `FetchableDevEnvironment` that handles requests via the Fetch API. It shows importing necessary functions, configuring the environment, and dispatching a fetch request. The environment requires `Request` and `Response` instances for `dispatchFetch`, and Vite will validate these types. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/api-environment-frameworks LANGUAGE: typescript CODE: ``` import { createServer, createFetchableDevEnvironment, isFetchableDevEnvironment, } from 'vite' const server = await createServer({ server: { middlewareMode: true }, appType: 'custom', environments: { custom: { dev: { createEnvironment(name, config) { return createFetchableDevEnvironment(name, config, { handleRequest(request: Request): Promise | Response { // handle Request and return a Response }, }) }, }, }, }, }) // Any consumer of the environment API can now call `dispatchFetch` if (isFetchableDevEnvironment(server.environments.custom)) { const response: Response = await server.environments.custom.dispatchFetch( new Request('/request-to-handle'), ) } ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Build Vite Application DESCRIPTION: Executes the Vite build command to generate production-ready static assets. The output is typically placed in the 'dist' directory, ready for deployment. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/static-deploy LANGUAGE: bash CODE: ``` $ npm run build ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite SSR: Run Entrypoint in Custom Dev Environment DESCRIPTION: Demonstrates setting up a Vite development server with a plugin to handle virtual modules. It shows how to interact with a custom SSR environment, specifically checking for `CustomDevEnvironment` and running an entrypoint module. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/api-environment-frameworks LANGUAGE: ts CODE: ``` import { createServer } from 'vite' const server = createServer({ plugins: [ // a plugin that handles `virtual:entrypoint` { name: 'virtual-module', /* plugin implementation */ }, ], }) const ssrEnvironment = server.environment.ssr const input = {} // use exposed functions by each environment factories that runs the code // check for each environment factories what they provide if (ssrEnvironment instanceof CustomDevEnvironment) { ssrEnvironment.runEntrypoint('virtual:entrypoint') } else { throw new Error(`Unsupported runtime for ${ssrEnvironment.name}`) } // ------------------------------------- // virtual:entrypoint const { createHandler } = await import('./entrypoint.js') const handler = createHandler(input) const response = handler(new Request('/')) // ------------------------------------- // ./entrypoint.js export function createHandler(input) { return function handler(req) { return new Response('hello') } } ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite `importedChunks` Pseudo Implementation (TypeScript) DESCRIPTION: A pseudo-implementation in TypeScript for a function that resolves all imported chunks recursively starting from a given entry point name. This function helps in identifying all CSS and JavaScript files needed for a specific entry point, which is crucial for generating the correct HTML tags. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/backend-integration LANGUAGE: typescript CODE: ``` import type { Manifest, ManifestChunk } from 'vite' export default function importedChunks( manifest: Manifest, name: string, ): ManifestChunk[] { const seen = new Set() function getImportedChunks(chunk: ManifestChunk): ManifestChunk[] { const chunks: ManifestChunk[] = [] for (const file of chunk.imports ?? []) { const importee = manifest[file] if (seen.has(file)) { continue } seen.add(file) chunks.push(...getImportedChunks(importee)) chunks.push(importee) } return chunks } return getImportedChunks(manifest[name]) } ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: HMR Case Sensitivity Issue DESCRIPTION: Addresses Hot Module Replacement (HMR) failures when importing files with incorrect casing. Vite's HMR might not update if the imported file name casing differs from the actual file name. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/troubleshooting LANGUAGE: js CODE: ``` // Incorrect import (e.g., src/foo.js exists, but imported as Foo.js) import './Foo.js' // Correct import // import './foo.js' ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite build.ssr Option DESCRIPTION: Configures Vite to produce an SSR-oriented build. The entry point for SSR can be specified directly or via rollupOptions.input. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/config/build-options LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` build.ssr: Type: boolean | string Default: false Related: [Server-Side Rendering](/guide/ssr) Description: Produce SSR-oriented build. The value can be a string to directly specify the SSR entry, or `true`, which requires specifying the SSR entry via `rollupOptions.input`. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite optimizeDeps.holdUntilCrawlEnd Configuration DESCRIPTION: An experimental option that, when enabled (defaulting to true), delays the release of the first optimized dependency results until all static imports have been crawled on a cold start. This prevents full-page reloads caused by newly discovered dependencies generating new common chunks. Disabling this can allow the browser to process more requests in parallel if all dependencies are found early. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/config/dep-optimization-options LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` optimizeDeps.holdUntilCrawlEnd Type: boolean Default: true Experimental: Yes Description: When enabled, it will hold the first optimized deps results until all static imports are crawled on cold start. This avoids the need for full-page reloads when new dependencies are discovered and they trigger the generation of new common chunks. If all dependencies are found by the scanner plus the explicitly defined ones in `include`, it is better to disable this option to let the browser process more requests in parallel. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Vite optimizeDeps.needsInterop Configuration DESCRIPTION: An experimental option to force ESM interop for specific dependencies. Vite typically detects the need for interop automatically, but this array can be used to manually specify packages that require it, potentially speeding up cold starts by avoiding full-page reloads. A warning will be issued if Vite detects a dependency might benefit from being added to this list. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/config/dep-optimization-options LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` optimizeDeps.needsInterop Type: string[] Experimental: Yes Description: Forces ESM interop when importing these dependencies. Vite is able to properly detect when a dependency needs interop, so this option isn't generally needed. However, different combinations of dependencies could cause some of them to be prebundled differently. Adding these packages to `needsInterop` can speed up cold start by avoiding full-page reloads. You'll receive a warning if this is the case for one of your dependencies, suggesting to add the package name to this array in your config. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Adjust Max HTTP Header Size DESCRIPTION: Mitigates '431 Request Header Fields Too Large' errors in Node.js by allowing adjustment of the maximum HTTP header size. This can be done via a CLI flag or by reducing header content like cookies. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/troubleshooting LANGUAGE: shell CODE: ``` # Example of changing max header size via CLI flag: # vite --max-http-header-size=8000 # Alternatively, reduce header size by removing large cookies or other data. ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: Force Re-optimization of Dependencies DESCRIPTION: When linking local packages or making changes that Vite's dependency optimization might miss, you can force Vite to re-optimize dependencies. This is often necessary after using `npm link` or similar tools. Using `vite --force` triggers a full re-optimization. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/troubleshooting LANGUAGE: bash CODE: ``` vite --force ``` ---------------------------------------- TITLE: ViteDevServer Interface DESCRIPTION: The ViteDevServer interface defines the core object for the Vite development server. It exposes properties for accessing the Vite configuration, Connect middleware, Node.js http server, file watcher, WebSocket server, plugin container, module graph, and resolved URLs. It also includes methods for programmatically transforming requests, transforming HTML, loading modules for SSR, fixing stack traces, reloading modules, starting, restarting, and closing the server, and binding CLI shortcuts. The `waitForRequestsIdle` method is an experimental feature to wait for static imports to be processed. SOURCE: https://vite.dev/guide/api-javascript LANGUAGE: APIDOC CODE: ``` ViteDevServer: config: ResolvedConfig - The resolved Vite config object. middlewares: Connect.Server - A connect app instance. - Can be used to attach custom middlewares to the dev server. - Can also be used as the handler function of a custom http server or as a middleware in any connect-style Node.js frameworks. - https://github.com/senchalabs/connect#use-middleware httpServer: http.Server | null - Native Node http server instance. - Will be null in middleware mode. watcher: FSWatcher - Chokidar watcher instance. If `config.server.watch` is set to `null`, it will not watch any files and calling `add` or `unwatch` will have no effect. - https://github.com/paulmillr/chokidar/tree/3.6.0#api ws: WebSocketServer - Web socket server with `send(payload)` method. pluginContainer: PluginContainer - Rollup plugin container that can run plugin hooks on a given file. moduleGraph: ModuleGraph - Module graph that tracks the import relationships, url to file mapping and hmr state. resolvedUrls: ResolvedServerUrls | null - The resolved urls Vite prints on the CLI (URL-encoded). Returns `null` in middleware mode or if the server is not listening on any port. transformRequest(url: string, options?: TransformOptions): Promise - Programmatically resolve, load and transform a URL and get the result without going through the http request pipeline. transformIndexHtml(url: string, html: string, originalUrl?: string): Promise - Apply Vite built-in HTML transforms and any plugin HTML transforms. ssrLoadModule(url: string, options?: { fixStacktrace?: boolean }): Promise> - Load a given URL as an instantiated module for SSR. ssrFixStacktrace(e: Error): void - Fix ssr error stacktrace. reloadModule(module: ModuleNode): Promise - Triggers HMR for a module in the module graph. You can use the `server.moduleGraph` API to retrieve the module to be reloaded. If `hmr` is false, this is a no-op. listen(port?: number, isRestart?: boolean): Promise - Start the server. restart(forceOptimize?: boolean): Promise - Restart the server. - @param forceOptimize - force the optimizer to re-bundle, same as --force cli flag close(): Promise - Stop the server. bindCLIShortcuts(options?: BindCLIShortcutsOptions): void - Bind CLI shortcuts waitForRequestsIdle: (ignoredId?: string) => Promise - Calling `await server.waitForRequestsIdle(id)` will wait until all static imports are processed. If called from a load or transform plugin hook, the id needs to be passed as a parameter to avoid deadlocks. Calling this function after the first static imports section of the module graph has been processed will resolve immediately. - @experimental - INFO: `waitForRequestsIdle` is meant to be used as a escape hatch to improve DX for features that can't be implemented following the on-demand nature of the Vite dev server. It can be used during startup by tools like Tailwind to delay generating the app CSS classes until the app code has been seen, avoiding flashes of style changes. When this function is used in a load or transform hook, and the default HTTP1 server is used, one of the six http channels will be blocked until the server processes all static imports. Vite's dependency optimizer currently uses this function to avoid full-page reloads on missing dependencies by delaying loading of pre-bundled dependencies until all imported dependencies have been collected from static imported sources. Vite may switch to a different strategy in a future major release, setting `optimizeDeps.crawlUntilStaticImports: false` by default to avoid the performance hit in large applications during cold start. ```
