unplugin-vue-file-router v0.2.1

File based router

Generate routes from a directory of Vue files.

Usage

This plugin based on unplugin So you can use it with Vite, Rollup, Webpack, esbuild, nuxt Like in Vite

import { defineConfig } from 'vite'
import Router from 'unplugin-vue-file-router/vite'

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [
    Router({ /* options */ })
  ]
})

Rules

Assuming you have a directory structure like this:

src/views/
  index.vue
  about.vue
  users/
    [id].vue
    index.vue
  a/
    index.vue
    a-1.vue
    a-2.vue

The following dirs will generate the following routes:

export const routes = [{
  name: '',
  path: '/',
  component: () => import('/src/views/index.vue'),
  children: [
    {
      name: '/about',
      path: '/about',
      component: () => import('/src/views/about.vue')
    },
    {
      name: '/a',
      path: '/a',
      component: () => import('/src/views/a/index.vue'),
      children: [
        {
          name: '/a/a-1',
          path: '/a/a-1',
          component: () => import('/src/views/a/a-1.vue')
        },
        {
          name: '/a/a-2',
          path: '/a/a-2',
          component: () => import('/src/views/a/a-2.vue')
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      name: '/users',
      path: '/users',
      component: () => import('/src/views/users/index.vue'),
      children: [
        {
          name: '/users/:id',
          path: '/users/:id',
          component: () => import('/src/views/users/[id].vue')
        }]
    }]
}]

You can import it in any js file like this:

import { routes } from 'virtual:file-router'

Options

interface Options {
  /**
   * base url
   * @default 'views'
   */
  pageDir?: string
  /**
   * extensions of files to be imported
   * @default /.(vue|[t|j]sx*)$/ for vue, ts, js, tsx, jsx
   */
  extensions?: MaybeArray<RegExp>
  /**
   * match route resolvers
   * @default [{
      rule: (filename: string) => filename.startsWith('[') && filename.endsWith(']'),
      resolver: (filename: string) => `:${filename.slice(1, -1)}`,
    }],
   * default will resolve [id] into :id
   */
  matchRoute?: MaybeArray<MatchRouteHandler>
}

type MaybeArray<T> = T | T[]

interface MatchRouteHandler {
  /**
   * select which file to match this rule
   */
  rule: (filename: string) => boolean
  /**
   * resolve filename and return route path
   */
  resolver: (filename: string) => string
}
