Bazel rules for vite

Installation

Include this in your WORKSPACE file:

load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")
VITE_COMMIT = "2790cd1964bf8a8c70c77ddc7ea32220ff000744"

VITE_SHA256 = "55f97743ec28e1b3ef24547d7f171a381cca46c8c296267bac32f77faec25075"

http_archive(
    name = "ubiquitous_tech_rules_vite",
    sha256 = VITE_SHA256,
    strip_prefix = "rules_vite-%s" % VITE_COMMIT,
    urls = ["https://github.com/ubiquitoustech/rules_vite/archive/%s.zip" % VITE_COMMIT],
)

load("//@ubiquitoustech/rules_vite/vite:repositories.bzl", "rules_vite_dependencies")

# This fetches the rules_vite dependencies, which are:
# - bazel_skylib
# - rules_nodejs
# If you want to have a different version of some dependency,
# you should fetch it *before* calling this.
# Alternatively, you can skip calling this function, so long as you've
# already fetched these dependencies.
rules_vite_dependencies()

note, in the above, replace the VITE_COMMIT and VITE_SHA256 with the one indicated in the release notes for rules_vite or one of your choosing In the future, our release automation should take care of this.

Examples

The examples/vite-project folder has a working example that can be run.

# Run the dev server and make quick changes to files in src of that folder and the changes are shown in browser right away and the state of the browser is kept
$ bazel run dev

# build the production bundle
$ bazel build prod

# run the production bundle
$ bazel run prodserver

TODO
