svelte-preprocess-import-assets

svelte-preprocess-import-assets

Import assets directly in the markup.

Convert this:

<h1>Look at this image</h1>
<img src="./assets/cool-image.png" alt="cool image" />

Into this:

<script>
  import ___ASSET___0 from './assets/cool-image.png'
</script>

<h1>Look at this image</h1>
<img src={___ASSET___0} alt="cool image" />

Usage

Install with your package manager:

npm install svelte-preprocess-import-assets

Include the preprocessor in your bundler's Svelte plugin preprocess option:

import importAssets from 'svelte-preprocess-import-assets'

svelte({ preprocess: [importAssets()] })

// or in svelte.config.js
const config = {
  preprocess: [importAssets()],
  // ... other svelte options
}

Here is more information on how to integrate it with your bundler.

API

The importAssets() function receives an optional options object for its first parameter. The object may contain these properties:

sources

• Type: AssetSource[] | ((defaultSources: AssetSource[]) => AssetSource[])

  interface AssetSource {
    tag: string
    srcAttributes?: string[]
    srcsetAttributes?: string[]
    filter?: (metadata: FilterMetadata) => boolean
  }
  
  interface FilterMetadata {
    tag: string
    attribute: string
    value: string
    attributes: Record<string, string>
  }
  

• Default: See DEFAULT_SOURCES in src/constants.ts

  These are the sources to look for when scanning for imports. You can provide an entirely different list of sources, or declare a function to access the default sources and augment it. The supported tags and attributes are based on html-loader (except icon-uri).

  {
    sources: (defaultSources) => {
      return [
        ...defaultSources,
        // Also scan `data-src` and `data-srcset` of an img tag
        {
          tag: 'img',
          srcAttributes: ['data-src'],
          srcsetAttributes: ['data-srcset'],
        },
      ]
    },
  }
  

importPrefix

• Type: string

• Default: ___ASSET___

  The string to be prefixed for asset import names, e.g. ___ASSET___0 and ___ASSET___1.

http

• Type: boolean

• Default: false

  Whether a URL with http/https protocol should be converted to an import.

urlFilter

• Type: (url: string) => boolean

  Whether a URL should be converted into an import.

  {
    // Include URLs with specific extensions only
    urlFilter: (url) => /\.(png|jpg|gif|webp)$/.test(url),
  }
