rollup-plugin-esbuild-resolve

Use rollup with the resolution algorithm implementation of esbuild.
This plugin replaces @rollup/plugin-node-resolve and all rollup plugins which implement the TypeScript compilerOptions.paths resolution algorithm.

Why

Esbuild has its own implementation of the node resolution algorithm and it also implements the compilerOptions.paths resolution algorithm introduced by TypeScript.

The implementation has also one speciality - its not reading just one tsconfig.json file, its always reading the closest one from the importer file. This enables correct resolution of many interconnected projects, each one with their own tsconfig.json.

Install

npm i rollup-plugin-esbuild-resolve -D

Usage

// rollup.config.js
import { esbuildResolve } from 'rollup-plugin-esbuild-resolve';

export default {
  plugins: [
    esbuildResolve({
      // optional:
      esbuild: {
        // pass custom esbuild options here
      }
    }),
  ],
}

Note: This plugin can be used together with @rollup/plugin-node-resolve and other resultion plugins.

Options

rollup-plugin-esbuild-resolve has only one optional option:

esbuild

Here you can pass custom esbuilds build api options.

You can pass any options you like, but the options which are relevant for customizing the resolution algorithm are:

• platform: Customize the default values for various resolution related options.
• conditions: Controls how the exports field in a package.json is interpreted.
• ignoreAnnotations: Controls whether hints for side effects like the sideEffects field in a package.json or the inline /* @__PURE__ */ comment are respected.
• mainFields: Controls which fields in a package.json are the entry point and in which order to check them.
• nodePaths: Additional directories to check for modules.
• preserveSymlinks: Controls whether symlinks should be preserved.
• resolveExtensions: Controls which extensions in which order should be checked for a resolved file without extension.
• tsconfig: Customize the name of the tsconfig.json file which should be checked.
• absWorkingDir: Customize the working directory.
