Example
Install
pnpm add -D vite-plugin-version-mark
# OR yarn add -D vite-plugin-version-mark
# OR npm install -D vite-plugin-version-markUsage
Vite
// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import { vitePluginVersionMark } from "vite-plugin-version-mark";
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
vitePluginVersionMark({
// name: 'test-app',
// version: '0.0.1',
// command: 'git describe --tags',
// outputFile: true,
// ifGitSHA: true,
ifShortSHA: true,
ifMeta: true,
ifLog: true,
ifGlobal: true,
}),
],
});Nuxt3+
// nuxt.config.ts
export default defineNuxtConfig({
modules: [
[
"vite-plugin-version-mark/nuxt",
{
// name: 'test-app',
// version: '0.0.1',
// command: 'git describe --tags',
// outputFile: true,
// ifGitSHA: true,
ifShortSHA: true,
ifMeta: true,
ifLog: true,
ifGlobal: true,
},
],
],
});Then you can use vite-plugin-version-mark ! 🎉
🚀 What's New in v0.2.0: Multi-command support! Now you can execute multiple git commands and combine their results with custom formats. Perfect for creating version strings like
"main-abc1234"or"v1.0.0-main-abc1234". See examples below ⬇️
Config
vite-plugin-version-markcan be print application version in theConsole, definedglobalor add<meta>in HTML element.
| Name | Description | Type | Default | Supported |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------- | -------------------------- | --------- |
| name | application name | string | name in package.json | 0.0.1+ |
| version | application version | string | version in package.json | 0.0.1+ |
| ifGitSHA | use git commit SHA as the version | boolean | false | 0.0.1+ |
| ifShortSHA | use git commit short SHA as the version | boolean | false | 0.0.1+ |
| command | provide a custom command to retrieve the version New: Now supports multiple commands! For example: git describe --tags or { commands: ['git branch --show-current', 'git rev-parse --short HEAD'], format: '{0}-{1}' } | string | MultiCommandOptions | git rev-parse --short HEAD | 0.0.8+ |
| ifLog | print info in the Console | boolean | true | 0.0.1+ |
| ifGlobal | set a variable named `__${APPNAME}_VERSION__` in the windowFor TypeScript users, make sure to add the type declarations in the env.d.ts or vite-env.d.ts file to get type checks and Intellisense. | boolean | true | 0.0.4+ |
| ifMeta | add <meta name="application-name" content="{APPNAME_VERSION}: {version}"> in the <head> | boolean | true | 0.0.1+ |
| ifExport | export the version field in the entry file. This may be used when you use vite to build a library mode.Through import { {APPNAME}_VERSION } from <your_library_name> | boolean | false | 0.0.11+ |
| outputFile | The build generates a static file based on the version, as described in the outputFile configuration below. | boolean/function | false | 0.1.1+ |
The version field takes precedence:
command>ifShortSHA>ifGitSHA>version
Multi-Command Support 🎉 NEW in v0.2.0
Starting from version 0.2.0+, vite-plugin-version-mark supports executing multiple commands and combining their results! This is perfect for creating version strings that include both branch name and commit SHA.
Basic Multi-Command Usage
// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import { vitePluginVersionMark } from "vite-plugin-version-mark";
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
vitePluginVersionMark({
// Simple multi-command with default separator
command: {
commands: [
"git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD", // Get branch name
"git rev-parse --short HEAD", // Get short commit SHA
],
// Output: "main-abc1234"
},
}),
],
});Advanced Multi-Command Configuration
// vite.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
vitePluginVersionMark({
command: {
commands: [
{
alias: "branch",
cmd: "git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD",
fallback: "unknown",
},
{ alias: "sha", cmd: "git rev-parse --short HEAD", timeout: 5000 },
{
alias: "tag",
cmd: "git describe --tags --abbrev=0",
fallback: "v0.0.0",
},
],
format: "{tag}-{branch}-{sha}", // Custom format template
errorStrategy: "fallback", // Use fallback values on error
parallel: true, // Execute commands in parallel
// Output: "v1.0.0-main-abc1234"
},
}),
],
});Multi-Command Options
| Option | Description | Type | Default |
| --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------- | -------- |
| commands | Array of commands to execute. Can be strings or command config objects | (string \| CommandConfig)[] | - |
| format | Template string with {alias} placeholders for formatting results | string | - |
| separator | Default separator when no format template is provided | string | "-" |
| errorStrategy | How to handle command failures: "strict", "skip", or "fallback" | string | "skip" |
| parallel | Whether to execute commands in parallel for better performance | boolean | true |
Error Handling Strategies
strict: Any command failure will throw an error and stop the buildskip: Failed commands are skipped, their results are empty in the outputfallback: Use thefallbackvalue specified in the command config when a command fails
Command Configuration
Each command can be configured with additional options:
interface CommandConfig {
alias: string; // Alias for referencing in format template
cmd: string; // The actual command to execute
fallback?: string; // Fallback value if command fails
timeout?: number; // Command timeout in milliseconds (default: 10000)
}outputFile Configuration Option
If you want to enable it, you can set it to true, and it will create a file with the path .well-known/version and the content of the current version number in the relative build directory (dist for vite and .output/public for nuxt3).
Alternatively, it can be set to a function that takes the version number as a parameter and returns an object. This allows you to define the content information generated, for example:
// vite.config.ts
vitePluginVersionMark({
// ...other options
outputFile: (version) => ({
path: 'custom/version.json',
content: `{"version":"${version}"}`,
})
}),With this configuration, a file named custom/version.json will be generated, and its content will be {"version":"${current version number}"}.

How to get the version in your vitePlugin?
// vite.config.ts
import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import type { Plugin } from "vite";
import { vitePluginVersionMark } from "vite-plugin-version-mark";
const yourPlugin: () => Plugin = () => ({
name: "test-plugin",
config(config) {
// get version in vitePlugin if you open `ifGlobal`
console.log(config.define);
},
});
export default defineConfig({
plugins: [
vue(),
vitePluginVersionMark({
ifGlobal: true,
}),
yourPlugin(),
],
});How to get the branch to which it belongs through commit SHA?
Through the git command below, you can list all branches containing the specified commit SHA.
git branch -r --contains <COMMIT_SHA>Star History
