A simple Django app to integrate Vite.js easily in your Django project.
Project description
django-simple-vite
A simple Django app to integrate Vite.js easily in your Django project.
Install:
pip install django-simple-vite
Then add simple_vite to INSTALLED_APPS in Django settings.
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...
'simple_vite',
...
]
Settings:
During development, set VITE_SERVER_URL in Django settings, pointing to the Vite.js development server, e.g.:
VITE_SERVER_URL = 'http://localhost:3000'
When in production, you don't need to set VITE_SERVER_URL, because the compiled assets produced by Vite.js will be served as regular static files.
Usage:
Create an app that will contain your Vite.js powered frontend:
./manage.py startapp frontend
Inside your app, create a vite_src directory (the name is arbitrary). This directory will contain your Javascript sources, that will be compiled by Vite.js.
In the vite_src directory, create a vite.config.js file, with this content:
const { resolve } = require('path');
export default {
build: {
manifest: true, // adds a manifest.json
rollupOptions: {
input: [
// Use main.js file as entrypoint for your JS app.
resolve(__dirname, './main.js'),
]
},
// Puts the Vite.js manifest.json in
// PROJECT_ROOT/frontend/static/
outDir: '../static',
// puts compiled asset files (js, css) in
// PROJECT_ROOT/frontend/static/frontend
assetsDir: 'frontend',
},
plugins: [],
server: {
// This port should match with VITE_SERVER_URL Django setting.
port: 3000,
open: false,
}
};
In the vite_src directory, create a main.js file, that will serve as entry point for your app, with this content:
// Add this at the beginning of your app entry.
import 'vite/modulepreload-polyfill';
import 'main.css';
console.log("hello world");
main.css is a CSS file that will be imported by Vite and used by your application.
Install Vite.js in your vite_src directory:
yarn add vite
Add a couple of script in your package.json:
{
"dependencies": {
"vite": "^4.1.4"
},
"scripts": {
"dev": "vite",
"build": "vite build"
}
}
Launch Vite.js server:
yarn dev
Create a Django template index.html that will hold the HTML markup used by your application, save it inside your frontend Django app in a subdirectory templates/frontend/.
{% load vite %}
<html>
<head>
{% vite_styles 'main.js' %}
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello world</h1>
{% vite_scripts 'main.js' %}
</body>
</html>
Now create a Django URLConf that will serve the above template, and you'll see a basic Vite.js powered web app, with Hot Module Replacement (HMR) enabled!
