Install
# npm
npm i @fizzlab.io/vite-plugin-shopify-schema -D
# yarn
yarn add @fizzlab.io/vite-plugin-shopify-schema -D
# pnpm
pnpm add @fizzlab.io/vite-plugin-shopify-schema -DUsage
Add the vite-plugin-shopify-schema to your vite.config.js file and configure it:
import shopifySchema from 'vite-plugin-shopify-schema'
export default {
  plugins: [
    /* Plugin options are not required, defaults shown */
    shopifySchema({
      themeRoot: './',
      sourceCodeDir: 'frontend',
      entrypointsDir: 'frontend/entrypoints',
      additionalEntrypoints: [],
      snippetFile: 'vite-tag.liquid'
    })
  ]
}The Shopify Vite Plugin does not require you to specify the entry points for your theme. By default, it treats JavaScript and CSS files (including preprocessed
languages such as TypeScript, JSX, TSX, and Sass) within the frontend/entrypoints folder in the root of your project as entry points for Vite.

The Shopify Vite Plugin generates a vite-tag snippet which includes <script> and <link> tags, and all the liquid logic needed
to load your assets.
With your Vite entry points configured, you only need to reference them with the vite-tag snippet that you add to the <head> of your theme's layout:
{% liquid
  # Relative to entrypointsDir
  render 'vite-tag' with 'theme.scss'
  render 'vite-tag' with 'theme.ts'
%}During development, the vite-tag will load your assets from the Vite development server and inject the Vite client to enable Hot Module Replacement.
In build mode, the snippet will load your compiled and versioned assets, including any imported CSS, and use the asset_url filter to serve your assets
from the Shopify content delivery network (CDN).
Loading additionalEntrypoints
{% liquid
  # Relative to sourceCodeDir
  render 'vite-tag' with '@/foo.ts'
  render 'vite-tag' with '~/foo.ts'
%}{% liquid
  # Relative to project root
  render 'vite-tag' with '/bar.ts' # leading slash is required
%}Preloading stylesheets
You can pass the preload_stylesheet variable to the vite-tag snippet to enable the preload parameter of the stylesheet_tag filter. Use it sparingly. For example, consider preloading only render-blocking stylesheets.
