useStorage not working properly

[YoungKamilson]

Problem description:

When using nitro-test-utils and trying to get something from Nitro JS storage I always get null.

const code = await useStorage('assets:views').getItem(path);
const tailwindConfig = await useStorage('assets:views').getItem('mail/tailwindConfig.ts');

Both code and tailwindConfig are null.

The problem does not occur when running API in dev mode (bun run dev), without vitest enabled.
It happens only with nitro-test-utils

vitest.config.mts

export default defineConfig({
   nitro: {
      global: {
         rootDir: 'src',
         mode: 'development'
      }
   }
});

Can you please provide a reproducible example and give more context how the storage is populated? Thanks!

For my projects, I usually populate the data during tests and provide a separate unstorage cache driver to get reproducible test results:

import process from 'node:process'

export default defineNitroConfig({
  storage: {
    telemetry: {
      driver: 'cloudflareKVBinding',
      binding: 'KV_TELEMETRY',
    },
  },
  devStorage: {
    telemetry: {
      driver: process.env.VITEST === 'true' ? 'memory' : 'fs',
      base: '.data/telemetry',
    },
  },
})

Yes, of course. I use storage for serverAssets:

export default defineNitroConfig({
/////
serverAssets: [
      {
         baseName: 'views',
         dir: './views'
      }
   ],
/////
}

As simple as that.

No way, it was not working due to error in my vite config...
rootDir key had wrong path to project...

export default defineConfig({
   nitro: {
      global: {
      rootDir: 'src', //  ----> I removed this and now everything works :)
         mode: 'development'
      }
   }
});

Sorry for the confusion and thanks for help!
