sveltekit-autoimport

Automatically detect and import components/modules for SvelteKit projects.

Before

After

Installation

npm i -D sveltekit-autoimport

Basic configuration

Inside vite.config.js.

import { sveltekit } from '@sveltejs/kit/vite';
import autoImport from 'sveltekit-autoimport';

export default {
  plugins: [
    autoImport({
      components: ['./src/components'],
    }),
    // must be placed before sveltekit()
    sveltekit()
  ]
}

How it works?

This tool will NOT add global components blindly into your files. Instead, it searches for undefined components or modules, and then try to fix them by auto importing.

You need to guide it where to import the components from:

autoImport({
  components: ['./src/components']
})

Or tell it how to import for some specific variables:

autoImport({
  mapping: {
    API: `import API from '~/api/api.js'`,
    MY_FUNCTION: `import MY_FUNCTION from 'lib/my-function'`
  }
})

Or explictly list the components being used from a third party module:

autoImport({
  module: {
    'carbon-components-svelte': [
      'Button',
      'Accordion',
      'AccordionItem',
      'Grid as CarbonGrid', /* rename */
    ]
  }
})

Name strategy

By default the component names will be namespaced with their directory names and then normalized to upper camel case format. For example:

<MyComponent />
<!-- my-component.svelte -->

<MyAnotherComponent />
<!-- my_another_component.svelte -->

<FormInput />
<!-- form/input.svelte -->

<Modal />
<!-- modal/index.svelte -->

Prefix

Components can be prefixed with a given name.

autoImport({
  components: [{ name: './src/components', prefix: 'shared' } ],
})

So that

<SharedComponent />
<!-- component.svelte -->

<SharedFormInput />
<!-- form/input.svelte -->

Flat

If the flat option is set to be true, no namespace will be added.

autoImport({
  components: [{ name: './src/components', flat: true } ],
})

So that

<Input />
<!-- form/input.svelte -->

<Popup />
<!-- modal/inline/popup.svelte -->

Full options

// vite.config.js

import { sveltekit } from '@sveltejs/kit/vite';
import autoImport from 'sveltekit-autoimport';

export default {
  plugins: [
    autoImport({

      // where to search for the components
      components: [
        './src/components',
        './src/routes/_fragments',
        { name: './src/lib', flat: true, prefix: 'lib' },
      ],

      // some frequently used modules
      module: {
        svelte: ['onMount', 'createEventDispatcher']
      },

      // manually import
      mapping: {
        API:  `import API from '~/src/api'`,
        Icon: `import * as Icon from '$components/icon'`,
      },

      // autoimport only for .svelte files
      // and only search for .svelte files inside components
      include: ['**/*.svelte'],

      // node_modules is ignored by default
      exclude: ['**/node_modules/**'],

      // if reading svelte.config.js to get preprocesses
      configFile: true

    }),

    sveltekit()
  ]
}
