Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

vite-plugin-ssr-hot-reload

A Vite plugin that forces a full page reload when your SSR entry file changes. It also injects @vite/client into the HTML response so hot reload can work properly.

Install

npm install -D vite-plugin-ssr-hot-reload

Usage

// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import ssrHotReload from 'vite-plugin-ssr-hot-reload'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [ssrHotReload()]
})

Options

entry

You can pass entry to specify which files should trigger a full reload.

ssrHotReload({
  entry: ['/src/pages/**/*.tsx', '/src/layouts/**/*.ts']
})

By default, the plugin watches:

entry: ['/src/**/*.ts', '/src/**/*.tsx']

ignore

You can pass ignore to specify which files should be excluded from triggering a full reload, even if they match the entry patterns.

ssrHotReload({
  entry: ['/src/pages/**/*.tsx'],
  ignore: ['/src/pages/ignored/**/*.tsx']
})

injectReactRefresh

You can pass injectReactRefresh: true to inject React Refresh scripts into the HTML head. This is useful for React applications that need hot module replacement for React components.

Note: To use this feature, you need to install @vitejs/plugin-react in your project.

// First, install @vitejs/plugin-react
// npm install -D @vitejs/plugin-react

// Then in your vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import react from '@vitejs/plugin-react'
import ssrHotReload from 'vite-plugin-ssr-hot-reload'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    react(), // Make sure to include the React plugin
    ssrHotReload({
      injectReactRefresh: true
    })
  ]
})

When enabled, the plugin injects the following scripts at the end of the <head> tag:

<script type="module" src="/@react-refresh"></script>
<script type="module">
  import RefreshRuntime from '/@react-refresh'
  RefreshRuntime.injectIntoGlobalHook(window)
  window.$RefreshReg$ = () => {}
  window.$RefreshSig$ = () => (type) => type
  window.__vite_plugin_react_preamble_installed__ = true
</script>

What it does

  • Injects <script type="module" src="/@vite/client"> into HTML responses (only in dev)
  • Optionally injects React Refresh scripts into the HTML head when injectReactRefresh: true is set
  • Sends a full-reload signal when an SSR module is updated
