Vite Plugin
Vite Plugin
The @loewen-digital/fullstack Vite plugin adds development tooling to your build: the Dev UI panel, virtual module support, and hot-reload awareness for configuration changes.
Import
import { fullstack } from '@loewen-digital/fullstack/vite'Setup
Add the plugin to your vite.config.ts:
import { defineConfig } from 'vite'import { sveltekit } from '@sveltejs/kit/vite'import { fullstack } from '@loewen-digital/fullstack/vite'
export default defineConfig({ plugins: [ sveltekit(), fullstack({ // Enable the Dev UI at /_fullstack devUI: true, }), ],})Features
Dev UI
When devUI: true, the plugin mounts a development panel at /_fullstack (in dev mode only). The Dev UI provides:
- Mail preview — view all emails sent via the
consoledriver in a browser - Queue inspector — view pending, processing, and failed jobs
- Cache explorer — inspect cache keys and values
- Session viewer — debug session contents for the current user
- Log viewer — tail structured logs in real time
The Dev UI is never included in production builds.
Configuration hot-reload
When your fullstack.config.ts changes, the plugin triggers a module reload without requiring a full server restart.
Type generation
The plugin can generate TypeScript types from your database schema and route configuration:
fullstack({ devUI: true, generateTypes: true, // writes to src/fullstack.d.ts})Config options
| Option | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
devUI | boolean | false | Enable the Dev UI panel in development |
devUI.path | string | '/_fullstack' | URL path for the Dev UI |
generateTypes | boolean | false | Auto-generate TypeScript types from schema |
configFile | string | 'fullstack.config' | Path to the stack config file |
