vite-plugin-html-template

HTML template for vite app, like html-webpack-plugin for webpack.

It works perfectly together with vite-plugin-mpa.

Motivation

• Vite needs an html entry file, which means we must have
  • projectRoot/index.html for SPA
  • projectRoot/src/pages/*/index.html for MPA
• Why not use html template for all entries
• Also we should support ejs/lodash.template syntax for the html content, like setting <title></title>.

Usage

yarn add -D vite-plugin-html-template

// vite.config.ts
import htmlTemplate from 'vite-plugin-html-template'

// @see https://vitejs.dev/config/
export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    // ...other plugins
    htmlTemplate(/* options */),
  ],
})

Options

• like vue-cli#pages `ts // for SPA, there is nothing to do, just use public/index.html as template

// for MPA, customise the template path (default is public/index.html) and page title: { // where is the pages' root directory? pagesDir: 'src/pages', // define pages like it is done in vue-cli pages: { index: { template: './public/index.html', title: 'Homepage', }, subpage: { template: './src/pages/subpage/index.html', title: 'Subpage', }, }, // expose to template data: { title: 'Homepage', }, } `
