Extends (扩展内容)

  • 增加多 preload 入口支持 (处理特定场景问题)
    • 当需要根据不同访问目标加载差异性的preload时, 需要使用到 vite 的多入口逻辑. 但是, 由于vite的chunk拆分逻辑, 不便于精细化的区分是否使用chunk
    • 如果此时遇到了, electron 开启 sandbox 的情况, 将导致 chunk 无法被正确加载. 所以, 这里增加了多个preload入口的支持, 从CI层面, 解决禁用chunk的问题
  • 增加通知事件, preload 重载时, 向主进程 (main) 发送通知.
    • 解决使用webview且打开devTool在应用重载时, 会由于无法正确关闭 devTool 导致应用崩溃问题.

Features

  • ⚡️ Vite powered and use the same way.
  • 🛠 Pre-configured for Electron, don't worry about configuration.
  • 💡 Optimize asset handling (Node.js addons, WebAssembly, Worker Thread, etc).
  • 🚀 Fast HMR for renderer processes.
  • 🔥 Hot reloading for main process and preload scripts.
  • 🔌 Easy to debug in IDEs like VSCode or WebStorm.
  • 🔒 Compile to v8 bytecode to protect source code.
  • 🏷️ Support for TypeScript decorators.
  • 📦 Out-of-the-box support for TypeScript, Vue, React, Svelte, SolidJS and more.

Usage

Install

npm i electron-vite -D

Development & Build

In a project where electron-vite is installed, you can use electron-vite binary directly with npx electron-vite or add the npm scripts to your package.json file like this:

{
  "scripts": {
    "start": "electron-vite preview",
    "dev": "electron-vite dev",
    "prebuild": "electron-vite build"
  }
}

Configuration

When running electron-vite from the command line, electron-vite will automatically try to resolve a config file named electron.vite.config.js inside project root. The most basic config file looks like this:

// electron.vite.config.js
export default {
  main: {
    // vite config options
  },
  preload: {
    // vite config options
  },
  renderer: {
    // vite config options
  }
}

Getting Started

Clone the electron-vite-boilerplate or use the create-electron tool to scaffold your project.

npm create @quick-start/electron

Currently supported template presets include:

JavaScript TypeScript
vanilla vanilla-ts
vue vue-ts
react react-ts
svelte svelte-ts
solid solid-ts
