Vite Plugin Relay

Add relay support to your Vite projects.

Created with the help of @Brendonovich and thanks to @kesne for adding pnpm support.

Usage

Add vite-plugin-relay and relay to your project.

yarn add react-relay relay-runtime
yarn add -D relay-compiler relay-config vite-plugin-relay

Next setup NPM scripts in the package.json. One is required for Vite and the other for the Relay Compiler

"scripts": {
  "dev": "vite",
  "relay": "relay-compiler"
},

Next setup relay.config.js more information about this can be found in the official relay docs.

Finally add vite-plugin-relay to your Vite configuration (vite.config.ts).

import { defineConfig } from "vite";
import relay from "vite-plugin-relay";

export default defineConfig({
  plugins: [..., relay],
});

Now your project is setup to use Relay with Vite!

Common Issues

Uncaught ReferenceError: global is not defined

If you experience this error in your browser console when using the plugin add the following define to your index.html file before importing your Javascript:

<script>
  let global = globalThis;
</script>

Server Side Rendering

If you are planning to use this plugin with server side rendering you may need to define window. You could do this by putting the following snippet in your entry-server.js file.

if (typeof (window as any).global === 'undefined') {
  (window as any).global = globalThis;
}
