@site-index/vite-runtime

Vite-backed runtime for executing site-index pipelines through Vite SSR module loading.

Repository README

Install

npm install @site-index/vite-runtime

Requirements:

• Node.js >=22
• peer dependency: vite ^8.0.10

When to use

Use this package when building adapters or integrations that need direct Vite-backed pipeline execution.

When not to use

• Most users should use site-index or @site-index/vite-plugin directly.

Public exports

export { createRuntimeService } from "./domains/runtime/factory.js";
export { RuntimeServiceBuilder } from "./domains/runtime/builder.js";
export { RuntimeService } from "./domains/runtime/service.js";
export type { Options, RuntimeViteConfig } from "./types.js";

Public API

Factory:

createRuntimeService(): RuntimeServiceBuilder

Builder:

class RuntimeServiceBuilder {
  withOptions(options: Options): this;
  withViteConfig(config: RuntimeViteConfig): this;
  withViteServer(server: Vite.ViteDevServer): this;
  build(): RuntimeService;
}

Runtime service:

class RuntimeService {
  buildArtifacts(): Promise<SiteIndex.Result<SiteIndex.Artifact[]>>;
  getArtifacts(): readonly SiteIndex.Artifact[];
  getWatchedFiles(): ReadonlySet<string>;
  close(): Promise<void>;
}

Options:

type Options = Pick<SiteIndex.Options, "siteUrl" | "extensions">;

Runtime Vite config:

type RuntimeViteConfig = {
  root: Vite.ResolvedConfig["root"];
  mode: Vite.ResolvedConfig["mode"];
  configFile?: Vite.ResolvedConfig["configFile"];
};

Behavior

• uses Vite SSR loading for executing discovered site-index modules
• can run with an existing Vite dev server
• can create its own middleware-mode Vite server from config
• tracks watched files through Vite's SSR module graph
• serializes buildArtifacts() calls through an internal queue
• snapshots latest artifacts and watched files
• clears snapshots and closes internally created server resources on close()
• does not close externally provided Vite dev servers

Example

import { createRuntimeService } from "@site-index/vite-runtime";

const runtime = createRuntimeService()
  .withOptions({
    siteUrl: "https://example.com",
  })
  .withViteConfig({
    root: process.cwd(),
    mode: "production",
  })
  .build();

try {
  const result = await runtime.buildArtifacts();
  // use result.data and result.warnings
} finally {
  await runtime.close();
}
