This is a template and proof-of-concept for the development of Vite-based userscripts.
This template works by forming a standard Vue project, marking
vue and @wikimedia/codex (and possibly more packages, see
vite.config.ts for the full list) as external dependencies,
building the project, wrapping the result in a mw.loader.using
call. vite-plugin-mediawiki-userscript
lets this magic happen.
HMR is supported. More instructions can be found when you
visit the web server shown when running npm run dev.
src/main.ts is the entrypoint. From here, standard bundler
dependency crawling occurs, and the result is a single-file
userscript. Additional ResourceLoader modules, such as vue
and @wikimedia/codex are not bundled, decreasing overall
size.
